I am curious why EVERY civic in this town has the urge to race me, It doesn't matter which car I am in.
I drove my pt cruiser to work today, which is all show no go, in fact my plates say SLO4SHO. It pisses me off to no end. I can drive my eclipse, my wifes accord or the pt and I have 2 or 3 attempted races on my way to work? anyone else have this issue?
There are a lot of high schools in the area also a huge amount of young military guys. I love the military so please no comments I was in the navy at one point but it seems like all these people are one of the 2.
This morning one of them caused a huge wreck right in front of me. 2 people were taken to the hospital. He ran a red light, and got T-boned, spun around and got hit again. The effed up part is he walked away and the drivers of the 2 cars that hit him went to the ER.

Because they think adding an intake, exhaust, rims and a HUGE wing make it fast. Few actually know tuning.

The same things happens to my brother sometimes. He has a 1998 BMW 525, (v8, 6 speed manual), and punks pull up with their pimped out Civic and rev like they have a chance.

Funny $hit.

No Brains, No Headaches.

I always get revved at by jacked up trucks. :gitara:

maybe, if we all start flagging them down, and getting them on back roads, then racing them for pink slips, in 30 or 40 years we could have all the civics cleaned off the road.

but what to do with all the civics???

And you know they'd just put spoilers and spinning hub caps on there bikes, and be back out there.
