I ruined my engine racing a porche which is the bad news. The good news is I won and he didn't see me pull over to get my car towed home

I notice that when someone beats someone else these days theres always a one finger salute from the looser!
when years ago you would pull over and admire the winners car. Guess times have changed, (damned yung uns)

Oh yea, Don't street race

IB4TL = in before the lock. An old-fashioned initialization/thingy indicating some pride that you posted to a thread with a high probability of being locked by the moderators. It seems that this happens less often these days, which suggests either an increase in tolerance, a lowering of standards or that no one gives a rat's anymore. I know I choose (d), all of the above.

They don't want to jump the gun and get criticized again. Maybe they reported it and its sitting in line to go on the chopping block, just like some requested.

damn thats awesome!

My favorite car to beat these days seems to be mustang GTs

the drivers for some reason (not all of them, but most) are some of the cocky SOBs out there...so its nice to pull away from one.. especially when the guy's girlfriend is in the car...oh the shame.

haha

SRT4 guys are equally as bad

I've found that if you really want to tweak an SRT4 guy's nose, refer to his car as a "Neon". Even though that's what it is, they seem to get bent out of shape about it.
