Saw something similiar on my way to work a couple days ago. I pulled up to a red light, an older black cobalt pulled up in the middle and a late model vette on the outside. I guess the cobalt was feeling a froggy and he decided to start revving. (I have to play nice since I have the court date coming up and all) The vette doesn't do anything til the light turns green, he waves to guy in the cobalt who proceeds to give it all he had. I stayed back to watch the show. At about 3 car lengths, the vette finally let loose and HOLY ****!!! He was past him before he hit 3rd. It was fabulous!!

Side note, cops were 1/2 mile later down the road.

I saw one like that too a few months back. Stoopid older honda civic with a big ole fart can and wheels sticking out. He tried to jump a late model vette at the light and the vette just let him get a car length, then, vrrooom, Geez it was so pathectic looking and sounding. The vette just let off after he put him a car length behind, Nuff said, The honda dude just eased off and I laughed and wish I had a vid of it. Pwned in less than 3 secs...

God damn it I wish I lived in a town with more stupid *** people. No one ever revs at me or anything like that when I'm in the Mach. I'm ready to put that thing to work.

Dude, I just watched your u-tube exhaust vid. I wouldn't rev at you either, unless I had a Cobra or something besides a GT. That thing sounds like a fcking monster.. LOL, Good luck on getting a ricer to rev at ya..

I'd rev at you. It's not like you're running mid 11's or anything

like a Geo? really? lol how many Geo owners race?
Here there is a Geo Storm with the plate that says in effect "Thunder Storm" Fart can is intact as well.

I just happen to pull up next to him. This red light is endless. So all the while my wife starts laughing. Oh yeah shes in the pass. seat. I'm thinking shes laughing at the car as I was when I pulled up. But shes keeps going and going. I finally looked over and asked her what was so damn funny.

I then noticed he has been winking and smiling at her the whole time. Bout this time the light is about to turn green. I looked over at him to wink back. Cause thats what I do, it pisses them off more. lol

Light turns green. He chirps tires off the line, (its a stick). Rice can is making a noise similar to that of a dying Giraffe. He grabs second, then third. Hes about 2 car lengths ahead by now. I'm not racing if you didn't know by now.

So yes, Geo owners DO rice and DO race.

i think a hyundai accent tried to race me once...
i came to the conclusion that i need a faster car cause noone with a respectable car will rev at me, but every ricer in town is on my left nut
