First off, I'm not that big on street racing. However, if its late at night, there is nobody around, and no pedestrians, I have been known to bury hondas out on the street. They always ask for it.

Ricer Boys:

Why the fark do you always try to race me? No matter what, its almost a given that any time I pull up in my 88 5.0 mustang, and one of you pulls beside me, you rev up your motor and try to race.

Why? Do you realize that when you burn through the gears, shifting at 9000 RPM, you're only really making noise? You rev it up real high, and burn through 4 gears, and you are doing 60-70 mph. Wow. I shift into 4th gear at 105. I'm not even remotely impressed.

I have nothing against honda/acura tuners, when you guys aren't douchebags. Everyone has a right to be proud of their car. Everyone has a right to tune and tweak their shiat to make it fast or nice. You however, chose a farking economy car that weighs anywhere from 2700-3400lbs, and has 110 horsepower from the factory. If it's a V6, you might rock 200.

I purchased a piece of shiat 80s car that wieghs 3000lbs, and has almost 300 horse from the factory. It has a 5 speed, appropriate suspension and posi traction. It was built for performance, not economy. Purely bone stock its quite a bit faster than your car after you have spent 10k in mods making it faster. Speaking of which:

Why do you pay so much for parts?

$600 for a single header? Are you serious? I pay 200 bucks for a high quality set of 2 headers for my car.

I can buy those headers, a cam, decent heads, an intake kit, and throttle body, and cold air intake for somewhere in the range of $1500. I then have a mustang that is fast as fark, and will eat your car alive.

You get a header, cam, intake and throttle body, and you're out around $4000, and you still have a slower car than mine is when it's stock.

Why do you do it? Because of one stupid movie???

I like embarassing you.

I will admit it. Like I said, if there is nobody around, and no pedestrians, and you rev your little chainsaw motor, I sometimes take the bait. Why? Because I really love burying your arse and embarassing you in front of your friends and/or girlfriend. I love shifting at like 4000 rpm (nowhere near redline) and still flying away from your sorry arse.

I only wish I could hear your pathetic excuses as you are back there floating your valves, beating the shiat out of you car trying to keep up.

The best part is, my white mustang is almost a factory vehicle. The only thing I have done to it is a cold air intake, exhaust and different gears. The car is only marginally better than when it rolled off the showroom floor.

And it still beats the shiat out of yours.

Why? I still want to know why.

So why do you act like a dick? Why do you rev your motor at stoplights, cut me off, or other douchebaggy activities? Is it because you have engine envy?

I really think that's what it is. Just like the guy with the 3 inch personality, you are acting like a jerk because you're inferior. I chose an ugly 80s mustang that is basically a cheap compact car with a giant v8 and a solid axle in it. You chose an economy car that needs a $10,000 investment just to get a respectable time at the track. You are jealous. But you saw the movie, and want to be like your friends.

I don't act like you.


When I am at a stoplight next to say a 454SS camaro, I dont rev my motor. I dont yell at him talking shiat. I dont cut him off and slam my brakes. Why?

Because (a) I'm not an insecure dickhead and (b) my car is not faster than a 454 camaro, and I know it. So there is no reason to act like an arsehole and force him to mash the throttle and make me look like a biatch.

Why cant you honda people have the same courtesy?

As long as you keep acting like this, I'm going to continue to embarrass you in front of you girlfriend, so keep it up. I'm just wondering.... why???

I have an 89 mustang GT hatch, bone stock except for a cold air and exhaust (I blew my rear end with 3:73s) :( anyways, even with a stock rear end and the posi burned out, I still smoke ricers that bust my balls.

heck ya, even a mustang with broken trackloc is a still a fast mustang! I burned out the clutches in mine a couple years ago, and had my faithful shop put a new set in.

My advice for you, keep the 3.73s! When my trackloc went out, I had them put 4.10s in while they were in there, and those gears are really nice off the line, but my stang would only do about 115 mph!!! It was nuts. I had to go back to the 3.73s so I could hit that 140-150 range again. (Not that I would EVER drive at those kinds of speeds on the highway.)

Having been in the racing game for years, one thing that never fails.......

"There is no substitution for cubic inches."

Words to live by my friends. :hellya:
