Default Rice Rockets

Is anyone else constantly having kids in Mazda's and Honda's try to get you to race at the redlight? I can't go to the store without someone trying to get me to cut it loose? Just curious?

Since I don't have my car yet... the answer is "no".

BTW, where did you get the hood? I'd like to see some other pictures of that style.

Here is a straight on view of the hood. Dale Jarrett Ford in Charlotte installed the hood for me. I get a lot of nice comments on it. Thanks

I am too [&:]
I am not stupid enough to race (dad is a cop), but it was kinda funny the other night.

Old Civic (black with a lot of REAL rust highlights...) with all the decals all over it, APC across the windshield, Wal mart tint and a muffler the size of a smokestack.

Guy pulled up at a red light, raced his engine a few times. We pulled out together, I was accelerating easy-normally, he was gunning it, spun but he pulled ahead.
His engine sounded like it back fired, blue and white smoke poured out the exhaust and the car stopped dead in the middle of the road.
One bit of me felt sorry for him, the other part.....he he he

I raced another 05 GT. 115-120 in a.....35. Most ricers around here don't even bother to mess with V8's, they know better.

I have had some come up at the lights and rev up, but the exhaust on mine is just stupid loud so that pretty much shuts them up. But I am getting tired of 350z's in my rear view. I wish I could get something else that would play a bit.
