It's always Civics, or Eclipses, they think they are quick, but the way I look at it, if you want a fast import then buy one, thats what i did

I saw one guy here where i live with a big tool box, so i said oh you a mechanic? he was like "yah" what you drive... and he was like "Pontiac Sunfire" in man im cool type voice... it was hilarious ... some of these ricers are just rediculous....

I get ferraris trying to race me all the time.. er, no wait.. Around here I don't get anyone trying to race me (I drive a stock looking Civic around every day). Soon as I get the TurboII or the FB with 13bt, then I'll let you know.

On base (air force) people always try to say their car is ohhh soo quick and how at their last base they ran 9.000 seconds passes with the A/C on, blah blah blah....... Well one Fri night i didn't go to the races and a whole lot of people in one particular click of guys talked smack. Well the following night i heard about it and got pissed. ( don't know why...????) So i slapped on the O'L Mickey Thompson e.t Streets and went hunting. When i confronted them, they all denied it. So i asked who was the fastest and gave him an *** spanking. Eclipse GSX. with intake, cat back, Boost controller, and AFC. Oh yeah some heavy *** 18" rims. I dumped the clutch at 5,000 RPMs and the all wheel drive couldn't get the leap on me. From then on i was gone. KNOW NO ONE WANTS TO RACE ME. funny thing is i'm not that fast. quickest has been a high 13 sec pass. Maybe it's the driver.?????

Mostly the kind of people who try to race me arent even ricers. Minivans, SUV's, and people in family cars think that everytime i pull up at a light, im going to romp on it and cut them off or something, so what do they do? they take off as fast as they can, and i just calmly go from the line, cuz i dont care. but every little douchebag in his civic and integra tries to race me, but i stopped doing that a while ago, too many close calls.

its all here, except the things that try to race me EVERY DAY, stupid trucks, there is always some loud truck that is trying to race me, civics, v6 mustangs/firebirds/camaro's, neons, cavaliers, sun fires.

hehehe family cars, my buddies 1989 Toyota Camry AWD 5spd may be a family car, but its nothing to mess with, he cant beat me but he can hand v6 mustangs/camaros/firebirds, civics, neons, and most honduh stuff their asses.

Around here (Milwaukee, WI) lotsa rice! Here in brief are the types of cars that have had their asses handed to them by me.

Honduhs of all shapes and sizes (Civic,CRX,Prelude,Del SLo, etc..)

actually there was a prelude that ran with me to 115 and we ran into traffic but I guess he gets honorable mention for putting ten grand into his car and running with my stock TII

Cavaliers
Firebirds
Camaros (RS only but I can never find a willing SS)
and lots of ******* thunderbirds I dont know what the hell these rednecks think that I have but they always have the same look on their faces after I smoke them. If you have ever beaten a high tourque V8 redneck mobile in your FC you know the face I am talking bout, that "WTF is that little ******* Jap crap thing?!?!?" look.

NEONS!!!!!!!!! Constantly, I never get a break for morons in Neons.

Most of the rice boys(except those damn Neons, they never learn) have stopped messing with me. I guess word has been getting around after I have beat so many of them so bad.

I get revved on all the time, and its almost never a worthwhile race. Ive gotten to the point where I dont even bother wasting the gas a lot any more.

As far as I'm concerned getting TRIED comes with the territory of owning cars like these. I've had all kinds of people try to race me and have lost my fair share as well but I'm always up to give it a shot. I've even had soccer moms and old granddads in their minivans getting involved in races with me. I guess they see you line up in a sporty car in the lane next to them and the competitive juices start flowing. People just don't like losing or being embarassed so they'll race.
