i was in a customers car and had to run down to the local dealership. i turned the driveway slower than normal because something was in the back and i was being careful not to turn it over. then i proceded to park by the service department. again slowly. i get out to hear some dude yelling "hey you" i turned and looked and he said "do you think this a nascar entrance or something?" i thought he was joking so i laughed and said YEAH! then he got smart and i almost told him to suck one... anyways i was pissed then so i just got back in the car and left. needless i was pissed. if i was in ANY of my vehicles. my 67, my fox, or even my stock dodge pickup i would have anihilated the tires right where i sat...i probabally would have done it in the car i was in but it was AWD. i really wish i was in my 67 f 100 cuz it will do a burnout that wont wait thanks to a 474ci cobra jet BBF and a auburn locker in the rear.

my buddy gets 10X more races in his 94 F250 diesel pickup than i do in the stang..and to add my stupid story, it was halloween, half full moon and the little bastards were running the streets. I proceed to warm up the stang in a timely manner, ease out of the drive only to remember my sticky throttle cable. Whilst on my way to pizza hut for the grubbs i encounter many a hundred children walking in the public traffic roads, i proceed with some caution and 20mph max. Pick up the pizzaz without complication, on the drive home a rather funny looking kid decides he's going to run out in front of me, stop and flip me off(maybe i knew him? ). I say WTF and keep going, 1 block from my house i turn a downhill corner at under 10mph only to hear the screech of a mom yelling "SLOW DOWN!!!", i stop and ask the G/F to roll down her window and tell her right where she can stick it, he husband cuts her off and says have a good night(lol). I get to my house and lay 2 lines of rubber all the way down the driveway, good times...

Either that or you have somewhere to be, and cant chase down all 6 ricers that passed you going the opposite direction...happens all the time to me!

i was driving back from the movies with the old lady and we were in my GTI. some punk kid with daddys mid 90s corvette convertible pulled up next to me. i knew i would lose but we messed around anyway. he won obviously, but he kept trying to race me, like taring me up once in front of my gf wasnt enough. a-hole.

I don't know about you guys, but I always get harassed by hillbillies in rusty old pickup trucks when I'm in the Mustang. im not sure if they are looking for a race or just a show, but it never fails when im out around the town some jackass in a diesel supercab will try to race me away from a stoplight.

one time I was driving completely normal when some hick in a old Chevy fullsize ripped around me at speed on the highway, and then proceeded to weave around and make revving noises next to my car. Supposedly at least two separate witnesses called in the incident and guess who the cops hunted down? the guy in the noisy black Mustang. I was stopped and interrogated by two officers, and when i asked if they did anything to find the pickup truck guy, they ignored my questions.

I was in my 4cyl Mustang coming home with my friend. I see in front of me an older (late 60s early 70s) Olds Cutlas I believe. 3 guys in it and the kid in the back keeps almost breaking his neck looking back at me. Light goes green and we turn left onto a highway (the type with guardrails but lights every half mile or so). Hit the first light red me and him next to each other. I rev the little 2.3 to 4000-4500 or so. Ride the clutch out alright spinning a little, and until haflway through second was ahead of him. He slowely walked by me to put a couple cars 3.4 of the way through 3rd. Funny thing is this race lasted about 15 seconds and we probably topped the speed limit if that, LOL. Had I been in the 5.0 (I'm sure they thought it was one, Reef Blue on pony rims) it would have been a joke!

When i was back at college a year or two ago...i cut through a parking lot to avoid a couple speed bumps (damn longtubes). As i was slowly idling through the parking low i come across this gaggle of ricers working on some beat-ass Porsche 944 and a riced out 2nd gen Integra. BTW...These kids were always tearing around campus acting foolish/dangerous. They were giving me the eyeball as I idled past...so i decided to show them what a fast car looks can do. I threw some revs and dropped the clutch in 2nd gear from 5mph and didn't let up till i had to slow down at the end of the parking lot. 100' of rubber later and a bunch of smoke...i felt better.

yeah its bad, when i was in college i drove the same route every day for 40 miles in my straight 6 f150, i would consistantly see the same cars every day, same 40 y/o women in volvo wagons with anti bush bumper stickers, same early 90's chevy pickups w/ flowmaster exhaust, same beat ass 81 camaros, same everything. so all winter long i drove up there and every damn morning ide get passed by these two civic hatchbacks with huge bomb pipes going a whopping 90mph up the highway. i waited all winter and finaly got my 5.0 out... same route, same time, same volvos with anti bush stickers... but no civics... for weeks! so i started driving the hooptie race truck again, first day out, there they are again haha. isnt life a trip
