[Paramour]

Well was coming home enjoying the fresh cool evening air. . in the Stag.. . guy at the lights rocks up and beeps, I'm thinking something is up. . he says

"Wanna Drag" . . No I replied. .then it was come on pussy. . you too scared this ford will flog your . . . . . . . . . . . (could see he was trying to work it out) Car. . .

I said . .Mate are you on drugs. .. .then of course lights go green and he goes hammer and tongs. . I casually cruise off. .

So people please tell me . . .are people really that brazen & mental. . well I guess he asked at least. . lol

Perhaps M35's stand out that bit more than the C34...?

i've had it happen to me heaps of times, not asked to drag, but this dick in his 350z was reving then took off from the lights, and was checking my in the side mirror, lets just say got to the entry ramp of the freeway i showed him what overdrive in a turbo auto goes like. (from rolling 20kms then light turned green) got to 100, i could then see him stuck behind haha.

but yeah every p plater in there holdens and fords, i even get the odd honda.

i only showed that 350z cause he looked really smug and had a hot missus had to show her his car is only a penis extension.

I had someone do it to me the other day at some lights were its a 110kp/h zone, i said no, he nails it, i took off a little bit quick to about 90 then slowed it up a bit and he kept going hard and the car behind me was a undercover cop car. I honestly had no idea it was there

[RBPOWA-(TJ)]

haha yeah uncover cops are always fun i teased some guy in a rex, knowing i had a UC behind me, he took the bait, probably lost his car lmao

[-RBD2-]

had a p plater in a BA falcon with an exhaust try and drag me from the lights in an 80kph zone.my missus (who was 8 months pregnant) says dont do anything stupid,i tell her i wouldnt bother racing kids meanwhile the school girls he had in the back were flipping me some gang-signs out the window

light goes green,he missed it,was to busy looking to see if id race him,he f**ken tromps it and the most hideous noise i have ever,ever heard comes bellowing out his exhaust.

the funniest thing about this encounter was that i took off in drive (and sensibly)after all the noise and gang-signs coming from his car he was about half a car length in front of me going as hard as his peice of shit could

i almost crashed the car i was in histericks the whole way home!

you see this kind of thing every day in adelaide. Mostly commodore drivers - I dont know what it is holden do to their customers or maybe its just that they attract a certain type of person?

They all think they have the fastest car on the road (except that 999999999999 million other people drive exactly the same car as them). oh and the big HOLDEN sticker across the back window really helps to identify the car that little bit better...

tis annoying - a bit like mozzies or flies - and about just as common.

[horrace]

you know what annoys me more that the stupid car brand stickers on the windscreen? Chevy badges on commodores, i mean sure the V8 motor is based on a chev but are now made in south America for christ sake, but the cars are pretty much all Aussie otherwise F***ing bogans man i don't get it.

i think its something to do with their upbringing...

lol, ive had a couple of classic runs (private roads ) in my stagea when it was in its old trim running low 11 seconds on street tyres with the dogbox, etc (years ago). One was on the way to the photoshoot with the HPI magazine photographer and pulled up along side a vy clubsport with 3 young blokes in it. They had all there windows down and the stage had big lumpy cams so it sounded not standard, and this back seat passenger yellow out to me.. "it looks fast" in a sarcastic tone lol. I just smiled casually lol

The lights went green and he launched like a mad man, i didnt because i wasnt sure if he was gonna run, so my laggy little 2.7L took abit to get on boost, but by middle of second gear i blew past them like they were standing still and my open gate screaming they looked a little suprised too.

So i slowed down after being about 10+ car lengths ahead and they do the flat out flyby crap. I just cruised along till next set of lights are here they were sitting there again and i just pulled up with a big grin. The same guy in the back seat said "i think u need a parachute on that thing" and they said nothing else.

Also had a run with a sports bike and actually beat him and he rode next to me after i backed off and flipped his visor up and said "wtf is in that thing" and i just said a rb26 haha, he gave me thumbs up and went on his way.

Those were fun times pity the cars nothing like that anymore and new laws means i wouldnt even waste my time or risk it. Im building a track car now to get all that hoon behaviour out in a proper environment.

i think its something to do with how they're dragged up...

fixed

[180fan]

Yeah, I get the occasional falcodore wanting a run off the lights. Had one a few months back, I gave it a bit of a squirt to the speed limit (60kph), the other guy ended up going over 100kph straight past a highway patrol car, needless to say he was pulled over pretty quickly. I was laughing pretty hard as I drove past them, I gotta say.

[910trx]

in all honesty - the worst culprits for me are other fellow skyline drivers

but its not all "lets drag ya pussy!"

just the old take off slow and you can hear them holding first and not changing gears at the typical slowmoving 20kph shift point - their revs just keep building

then i stab it and kick it back so it spools and revs and they plant it!

and i let it change back to the usual auto functions and just keep rolling

they go like a bat out of hell till they get to about 3 car lengths in front before they realise i bluffed.

when i drive the datto i have to constantly rev the thing and blip the throttle to keep it from overfueling

its not intentionally LOOK AT ME, its just the old L4 is over carbed and over cammed - then the hoon behaviour comes out

every p plater in their vl's and vn's with chopped springs wants to show me how they drift an open wheeler in peakhour...

[iamhe77]

but its not all "lets drag ya pussy!"

Sounds like an.. err... interesting game.

Hey, whatever floats your boat I guess....

[RBPOWA-(TJ)]

lol Cam and the dirty jokes.... tsk tsk. grow up man

[GTRWAGON]

Its just not worth it these days. The pain of losing license and or car does not equal the satisfaction I'd get pumping some twit.

[ssshonky]

LOL - interesting thread! since I dont drive the Stagea daily I dont really know what its like, but tell you what used to get SH!TLOADS of " offers " in my NA n14 pulsar... was classic beating a 6cyl falcon/commo off the line, thats even before I converted it to turbo! oh and for some reason the S15 seems to get people angry. Lots of d1ckheaads want a go in that , but oddly enough only when my partners driving it??? ( the tint is so dark you cant really see much )

I kinda miss it to be honest. Always nice handing someone their ass on a plate when they dont expect it.

Though i think as soon as they cotton on its a turbo most people dont bother ( NA falcon ./ commies )

[fat-lad]

living in newcastle i get the odd commy hoon thinking they are v8 supercar drivers, must be in there blood i rekon
