I drive fairly conservatively and haven't had many people try and race me at all (I think there has been 3). about 2-3 months after I got the car, this raised chevy was revvin hard at me and his passenger was givin me crap. Two days ago when i put the flows on and got off the freeway a v8 caddie pulled up then literally 2 lights later another raised truck revved really hard at me and kept beside me. I didn't race any of them but I just wanted to know why all the ricers have kept away from me? I don't plan on racing them anyways but i thought that the ricers would be on me and not the monster trucks- what gives? maybe it's the crappy rims

Yea....here in redneckville I get a lot of big trucks with straight pipes revvin' at me just to show that theirs is louder, even though it sounds like total crap. But another time this idiot in a saturn ion pulled up on the highway, I had traffic in front of me and I was in a CONSTRUCTION ZONE!! The idiot floored it and it seemed like it took forever for him to get ahead and took off and had to cut someone off to get in my lane cause his lane was closing. Where's a cop when you need one......

Every car with a FART CAN muffler (mostly ricers, but some Saturns too), and EVERY NEON SRT4. The Lightening guys like to race too, b/c they know there truck is faster than our "stock" cars

I get everything on Vancouver Island. Ricers, trucks, soccer moms, whatever. I toy with the ricers, cause I know and cruise with most of them. The truck guys, I just take off from them, and the soccer mom's get the wink, the smile, and I stay beside'em

The little ricers will try to follow me in the ass to get me going but I never go for that. I dont race those little kids. I just race my friends sometimes while cruising, nothing dangerous.

Since we're in that subject, I should of raced some guy on Saturday night. I was cruising with my stang with my friend's 95 vert. I'm following him but I catch a redlight. I'm in the left lane and a car pulls next to me, but not completely side by side with me. Kinda stops at my passenger wheel or so. I look and I see some bodykit and I hear "BOUM BOUM" from the subs. I thought it was a Precidia. Light turns green, I accelerate normally..This guy passes me and I look over and it was a newer Z28. Now I look like a little wuss. He should of lined-up perfectly beside me if he wanted to go.
He then lined-up with my friend's vert and smoked him.

I live in the land of rice, but have never gotten any rice rockets trying to race me. The ricers love to rev their fart cans from across the street and act stupid weaving through traffic and such, but they've never actually lined up to try to race me. I guess its good so I wont risk doing anything atupid on the street just to show some ricer how much of a POS he drives. I've only gotten a few Mustangs rev at me at a stoplight, and a 94-96(?) Impala SS last night.

everything tries to race me. Yesterday when me and my dad were going down to the FFW, a 1973 Camaro kept trying to race me. Well, he got his wish. My dad leaned his head back and said "go for it" and i dropped it in 4th and the camaro shot about 2 cars in front of me and as soon as i hit the ol powerband.....goodbye. i passed him like he was standing still. the guy was like 55 with a huge cigar in his mouth. i saw his huge tach with a shift light so i knew he wanted his ass handed to him by a kid with his dad in the passenger seat

oh yeah, i just remembered another funny time with racing. this kid came into this parking lot i wsa in and was like "i hear you have a quick car, wanna run?" apparently, he knew he would win due to his SPORT BIKE. a freaking motorcycle. So i told him "look, im not gonna lie, the second you get beside me, im gonna ram the hell out of you so i can win." the dude was liek "damn man, it was just a joke." my girlfriend laughed so hard in front of him and the kid just rode away. hes nutts if he thinks ill dent my door to win. maybe with my dads beater though...

If you cruise around on a weekend night in a college town, you can find a race. In Worcester, MA there are 13 colleges. Races come in all sorts, from trucks, rice, to nice cars. Its all about location, location, location.

this pisses me off though. i just dropped my car off at the mechanic and on the way back i counted 15 ricers. but of course when im in my car driving, im lucky if i see one. hell i even saw a 04 viper on the way back in my moms car. but i think messing with sport bikes are fun. give em a real quick rev or stay next to them for a little bit and then they take off.

I've caused more than a few sport bikes to get caught by the police , of course, I didn't realize the cops were nearby. I guess the sound of those bikes taking off are quite noticeable. I get most of them going with a rev, but I know better than to actually try chasing them. They sure looked pissed as I drove by each of them as they got pulled over.

Most people that want to race me usually don't show up UNLESS my wife happens to be in the car. Let's just say she's not a big fan of showing off in this manner. Once in a long while, she will totally throw me off guard and give me the OK.

I've been taunted by minivans, trucks, bikes, ricers, and most anything on wheels. Happens a lot less often now that I have the X pipe. I guess the sound gives the impression that I'm not something to mess with. Well.......not yet, but soon enough!
