Speaking of 8 year olds, this has nothing to do with the thread, but I figured I'd bring it up. No intention to hijack.

Yesterday I was on the hwy and there was this 96-98 Mustang GT convertible next to me. Some dude with his family (wife, 2 kids) was driving it, and it had at least an exhaust on it, as it was pretty loud.

Anyway, we got off at the same exit and we're travelling down this road, and the Mustang is next to me but right ahead. Both of the kids are in the back seat turned around staring at my car and I can see them trying to peek into the hoodscoop. I'm not a lip-reader, but I see one of the kid's lips move like "Wow."

Not any sooner than that and the driver throws me a rev. The kids turn around the right direction in the car, and he hammers his gas. I answered with a downshift and a hammering of my own. His motor was at full song, winding through gears and I had pulled ahead by about 1.5 cars. We pulled up at the next light and the older of the kids (probably about 8) exclaims, "Dad, you just got WHOOPED!" I just started laughing. As for "the whooped dad," he just concentrated on staring straight ahead.

 

hahahaha nice pwned

 

Yeah it was! He got WHOOPED! Hahaha!

 

Now his kids wont look at him the same

 

That's where the real pwnage lies....

 

Amen. Later in life:

Hey dad remember when that subaru beat you in your mustang? hahaha

 

I have a good idea! A rebel flag painted on to the intercooler!

The absolute DUMBEST (smartass) question I've ever gotten was from this *** goblin in an early 1990s LT1 Vette. He said to me, "Why's the exhaust tip so big? Does it shoot watermelons?" I just replied to his witty remark with, "Before you ask why the hood scoop is so big, it's so it sucks up Corvettes. The reason for the large exhaust tip is so it can ****'em out in one large piece."

The guy was like, "whatever." I said to him, "Well, any time you're ready to run, I'm game." Lo and behold, to my surprise, he stuck around and waited for me. The "race" ended with me in the lead by about 2 cars and pulling.

 

Worst comment I got was: I had just gotten my 2003 WRB WRX about 20 minutes before my first race, (I WENT TO A TRACK) I got it brand new so I had to keep it under 4K RPM's I think, it was around there at least, anyways, Integra type R pulled up next to me with a carbon hood/trunk, Volk TE-37's and I'm sure even more under the hood. He revved his engine, and I revved back (keeping it under 3K) He took off in all of his wheelspin glory. I launched at 2500RPMS and had about 3 carlengths in a matter of one second, as I'm looking at the front of his car, I see a nice silver FMIC looking back at me, I couldn't help but laugh, I look back and am at 3.5K RPMs, I shift and beat him to the next light, I rolled my windows down jsut to make him feel akward, he pulls up and says "Dang man, that thing is pretty quick for a Honda!" I was completely shocked, I didn't even know how to respond, the guy actually thought it was one of his own! I didn't think someone with that JDM of a car would be that stupid.

ah, tracks have stoplights now . . . interesting.

 

If you noticed a few pages back they deleted the posts made by usuers talking about street racing. Therefore, I lied. Now let see how long it takes for my post to get deleted.
