how often do you get raced?

SiGNAL748 · #1 11-26-2003, 11:17 PM

It seems that anytime i'm out after 8pm, theres street racers (or ricers) swarming the damn streets. I went to go buy some milk a while ago, and at every single light there was a race waiting. This night there were a total of 4 people trying to race me. (11 is the record so far, and in the city, i didn't even get on the freeway) I didn't race any of them. Worthless. Well here goes my story. I just left my house, the second i get onto main st. Theres a green civic behind me flashing her high beams. I try not to notice it and drive normally. She moves over to the left, matches me, blows me a kiss, then takes off and switching lanes in front of me flashing her hazards.

- Second light (yes...every light..theres someone waiting

) a maroon eclipse RS...i think to myself..well i might as well have fun with this one

So the light turns green and we're at a 30mph roll..i look at him and downshift to 2nd, BUT not as to speed up, but to slow down

. He was so confused , also downshifted and took off for 2 seconds. I later catch up to him..and he speed matches me. I slowly begin to let off the gas. So we're slowing down...to 10mph

. it took him about 10 seconds to realize that we were going so slow. He looked over and gave me this down syndrome look, and took off. 3rd light, another one waiting

- green mustang (v6). Light turns green, i drive normaly, shifting at 2.8k even. the stang does a fly by and sticks his tongue out at me and yells "your car's fuckin slow!". I push in the clutch and rev my engine (I'm currently running pantyhose intake mod) he hear's the sucking in of air, and MISTAKES IT FOR A TURBO

. You should've seen his face, you could see himself whisper to himself the word turbo. He's obviously never heard a real turbo in his life. He turns off at the next light...fgukcign douche. 4th light - this one's great guys, a kia sephia w/racing stripes, fart can, and blue turn signals. He rolls down his window and says, "so you got vtec huh?" I say, "yeah, do you?", he says "yeah".

(I think to myself...wtf..lol) - he revs and revs. and i sit there looking down as if i'm reading something. This guy probably thought i was scared or something. I look up as the light turns green and start late, by this time he's already crossed the length of the intersection. I drive semi-quickly shifting at 4500k. AND TO MY AMAZEMENT, i look to my left and i'm dead even with him, as he's furiously shifting at redline (fart can gave it away). We stop at the light, i look over and teh guy is CRYING

- i tried not to laugh, but i look to my right so he wouldn't see and i freakin burst out laughing. Geez what a night...finally got to safeway and bought me some milk, and took a backroad on the way home to ensure NO MORE FGUKCIGN RACING.

damn, i miss the times when there were actually cars out there worth racing. but nowadays, the city's swarming with pieces of shit.

SOunds like a night of fun,
We we live we can rarely catch a race espscially at a light.
We go searching for races all over town and never get any.

So I guess your pretty lucky to at least have some people out there to race you.
Peace

i drive around in 2 cars my hatch and a 97 mecury mountaineer and i get more races in the suv than my car has ever seen, no one will race me when im in my car, no one, they could have a damn crx with b18 and some more shyt and they wouldent even toy with me or play back when i tried to get a race out of them, ricers wont even bite

but when i see them when im driving the suv they are all tryin to race 5.0's and what not, i dont get it! but the suv has only 2 losses so far in its 2 year racing history

i hardly ever get races.

let alone one's that are worth it.

sorta goes in streaks tho. some nights i'll get a couple, then won't for a few weeks.

tonight killed a 5.7 r/t, but...wasn't much of a race so it was kinda pointless.

get rev'd on by rice-boys all the time, hardly ever by an actual car that is worth it.

No one ever wants to race me

Had more races with the car stock then with some work done to it.

Damn the body kit!

My poor ride

I used to drive a '99 Honda CRV (*Not CRX*), that's right, the little mini-SUV thing. People would pull up to me all the time and rev their engines, and I'd be like, what? it's a CRV! I finally got a '94 Accord EX a few months ago but the exhaust is in really poor condition, rusted, holes, you name it. So I ask a friend if the shop he works at could hook me up with a new exhaust. He says yah so I go in there to order it and they only offer me one choice and claim it's a great price. It ends up being a fart can and costs me $300 for an axle-back exhaust. I'm pissed off about it because I could have gotten a nicer exhaust for the same price. I just ordered a replacement mid-section and will likely buy a new stock muffler. Eitherway, I've done some slight modifications, an AEM intake, new grill, new emblems. The car is slow as hell, I know this, so I don't even try to pretend like I'm fast. I hardly have anyone pull up next to me and rev their engine now. The only two people were a guy on the freeway in an Impreza and some punk in his '80 something Toyota hatchback. I got my ass kicked by the Impreza, of course. The other one was just last night, I had gone to Target to pick up some cat food for the cat that lives behind my work and I'm stopped at a stop light and this kid pulls up next to me with a car full of his friends. So he starts revving the hell out of his engine and skidding and honking his horn to get my attention. So than the light turns green, he burns out, and than turns into the 7-11 on the other side of the intersection. Now what's really funny is that he was honking and making all that noise, and we EACH HAD A CAR IN FRONT OF US. I had a pickup truck in front of me and he had a minivan in front of him. I was like "Where the hell do you think we would go???"

99civic03 · #14 11-30-2003, 08:35 PM

That's an older picture of the rear end

No sticker on it any more. Also, the engine is out of the car at the moment. Had a busy weekend tearing it down. The new head is going on today and the clutch tomorrow.
