so i was on my way way to stater bros. (supermarket) at about 11:00 at night i got a new custom exhaust put on my car so it sounds alot better then the stock one but if definently attracts more attention.....
so i turn at the light and and just crusing and i see this honda behind me he's going kinda fast and he catches up to me at the light the lane merges from the light from 2 lanes to one and i didnt know if he was actually gonna go for it and race me but what happened was the light turned green and i see him floor it then i pop my car into 1st and accelerate slowly but the honda keeps going.I had no intention of racing the guy but i guess he wanted to race me or something , any similar experiances anyone __________________ 1995 318ti Cosmos Black

Did you really turn into the far lane at the light like your diagram shows? That's illegal. So...are you asking if anyone has ever thought a Honda was going to race, got ready for it; and then it turns out the Honda was never really going to race and it was just in your head the whole time? That's what installing "custom" exhaust will do.  __________________

what i meant was that i used to drive the same way before the new exhaust and now its just noise intimidating for people to think that you wanna race them. __________________ 1995 318ti Cosmos Black

Those cars are pretty quick, they'd stomp on a stock 318ti. __________________

If I'm at a light, and someone's trying to race me, I'll rev the crap out of my motor.
Then I'll turn. It's absolutely hilarious every time. __________________

Haha, that happened to me on the way to the office today. i was sitting at a light, getting ready to make a right turn... a guy in a Sentra SE-R was to my left... didn't see my signal. So he looks over as he's revving his motor... so I put it into first gear as if I'm going to race him to the next light... the light turns green and I floored it off the line - into my right turn. He kept going. | | | | | 08-29-2007, 12:09 AM | #8 | | That's not Millpoint Blue Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: BNA Posts: 3,161 |
