I don't know ......You never know what's under the hood. I once saw a 89 4 runner run a blistering 12.8 sec. run. the only thing he admitted to was alot of Nitrous. That's all he claimed. that time is enough to spank alot of us.

they aren't really "ricers", but they are "*******" so i'll include them...where i live, i mostly get derelicts in Commodores trying to race me. big, tubby V6 or V8 "family" cars (what else r they good for?). they look like ****, yet those with the mental aberration of finding them attractive think they are driving 3000HP drag cars or something.

...i ******* HATE commodores......

THere is a dude here at the base that drives a green sunfire with Yellow custom highlights, and lowerd, and a big tip..he thinks he is so cool. I saw his car on one of those *We come to your work/house and change your oil* trucks that must cost an arm and a leg. For a SUNFIRE?

Oh yeah, and then there is the GOLD Sunfire GTR I have seen. It has duel exhaust.....cool......NOT.

this is totally 100% true for me, and i only drive an na. ill also add BMW's. a bunch of ****** in automatic tranny beemers are always speeding ahead when i pull up next to them at a light when it turns green. this is especially true at this light that is the entrance to the 110 freeway in pasadena california(GOOGLE MAP it to see what i mean. arroyo parkway is the street). they seem to think when the light turns green we are transported to a drag strip.

I got passed by a Soccer mom in a van.
I saw her later coming out of Dairy Queen.

Cliff note: don't try to get in front of a mom going to an Ice cream shop!

I call those "mommy missles".

The reason I call it that is because it is usually filled with bratty *** children and some women texting/talking on her cell phone not paying attention to the road.

A convertible new edge mustang tried racing me last night. v6. I had my windows up and his were tinted so I couldnt see him, he just hung beside me for a good 30 seconds or so. Then I heard the auto downshift and he barely crept away. My wife and I had a good laugh!

Well that's the "typical gain" that racing beat advertises. Im unsure as to the truth behind that though. I'm thinking optimistically hahahaha
