I was out with one of my good friends this morning and we both saw this riced out accord driving down the road

so I pull up next to him riding even with him, then gunning it for a second then easing back off.... you know setting the bait.
my friend looks over into there car and she said that he won´t do it b/c looks like his g/f is in the car.

nexxt thing I know though he does bite and takes off.. slam into second and I hit the gas... easily catch up and pass him.. again twice more


then we hit a light

there where a few cars around so I wasn´t going to launch at the light like I normally would

so we both take off nice and easy then he hits it hard and me sleeping at the light wait a second and he is already ahead of me
at which point I start to pull on him but he shuts off before I can actually pass so I ended up doing the ***** flybye by accident


oh well I had fun

sucks though I lost at the light cause I wasn´t paying attention

Get a real car and you won't lose at the line.

I could have driven a ligenfelter (sp?) and lost off the line


doesnt' help when I'm sleeping

An old Ford v8 van nearly got me one day because of not paying attention. I just eased off the line and he floored it, I floored it, it downshifted and barked a tire(I like this shift kit), and I smoked him.

Well, the guy knows that your car is faster, you'll have to race him again sometime. I hate when they hit their brakes when they see you're about to pass. By the time you meet him again, he'll have quite a little rep work about you.
"Yeah, this guy keeps trying to race me. I beat him 10 times." (His girl will lie and verify.) "I beat him one time and he did a ***** fly by."

This is true, people: "Ricers" are the first ones to call "Rice". Usually, mostly...unjustly. They'll call a particular item "*****" and have it on their car next week.
But an RX7 is an actual performance car.

I doubt that, 0-60 in 1.9 :hail:

Abel Kane

Good point. You could give people you didn't like a ride. Snap, they're dead.

hey not saying I wouldn't have caught up


but he would have beat me off the line still

Abel Kane

Yep, yep, yep...and what's the first thing you do when you're sleeping at the light and they pull off. Floor the hell out of it. I beat a 5.0 Mustang 5 speed Hatchback with a 82 Subaru 5dr 1800 3 speed auto that way. I through the pedal down, he paniced, floored it, tires screamed, engine roared, car went dead(what the hell), at this point I'm at 25-30, I hear him start it up, tires screamed again, engine roared, and by that time I was slightly out of range. Now, I have a slight fear of driving a manual transmission. I haven't yet. And I could be as bad as that guy was.
