Anyone else just find them funny ?
Showing my m8 the scooby going for quick cruise at the lights in front of me is a corsa 1.6 sport I think instead of going right the car with guys with basball hats on pointing and saying race him.....impreza....sure enough he makes a u-turn following me I just cruise to the next round about he unercuts me trying to wind me up....I don't care I find it amusing then onto the dual carageway he along with an XR3i in the fast lane me cruising in 5th they both pull in I cruise past in 5th get to a fast speed then pull in to turn off at the junction then these schmucks follow me presuming that I was and still am racing them !
I have owned a Nova GSi, Renault 5 GT turbo etc If I new somthing would give me a pasting I would at most try to get them to boot it to see how fast it was but the guys these days are just nuts.

let them pass.. get some strobes... and have some fun ..

A certain Gentleman from the Southend area with a silver WRX has been known to employ this rather amusing tactic.. fair play!!

Cheers

Yeah, but it only gives them an edge from the lights, if I understand correctly? Then, when you get onto the twisties............:

As iv'e said in a past thread, I find it bloody hilarious to rev the scoob up at the lights making them think I am going to race. as the lights change, give it stacks of throttle and slip the clutch a little, as they scream off let the clutch fully out and t and drop the revs back down, turn left and cruise off at normal pace, you can see the smirks on other sensible drivers faces

Fuzz - I've read what you typed before and employ this tack with red light racers.....or dobbers as I prefer to call them. Sometimes though I like to upset them by catching up their little poof chariots and sitting behind them to let them know how it feels to be Bambi with a Lion on their tail!!
