Is it me or has street racing definately increased

[Mighty Thor]

I mean I can't seem to drive the Firebird nowadays without being dare by someone.

Just the other day and old Ford's pick up with a Chevy 350 dared me. I won from the take off but quit immediately when I got to 45mph. This guy won't quit. He keeps daring me. I promise my wife no more street racing. Today Honda Civics and Mustangs. I'm just turning up the music and ignoring them.

I think enough is enough now. ~RANT

its gotten pretty bad around here also. i rarely race but i see at least 3 races everytime i go out and cruise. if i find a good match for my car or a ricer annoys me enough, i'll go for it. but only to the speed limit(ONLY IF THERE ISNT TRAFFIC) most of the time i just laugh at the other driver and go about my business.

Its not bad around here. I go for it every once in a while, but i don't get the chance often. Seems like there hasn't been any rice out since i got the TA :( :(

i noticed that also. my 3.4 was a magnet for rice.

I'm just waiting for someone to challenge me to a race, I've been running a lot and think I could take some unsuspecting n00bs :

Then again not many people tried to race me when I had a car, so I doubt that many will try me on foot.

I think it is increasing, I usually get a few people challenging me every week but I save it for the track. I usually ride around with the stereo on pretty loud. Last week I was cruising and I was behind some kid in a old integra (looked like a pile). Anyways we pulled up to a light and I was still behind him. Light turns green and he launches w/ a little chirp. As we pull up to the next red he moves into the other lane so I would pull up next to him. I pulled up and I thought I heard a noise so I turned the stereo down and he was revving at me. I just looked at him and started laughing and then he launched it again. Repeat over 3 more red lights.

I never get anyone challenging me. . Ive had people tell me their car will take mine or their friends car can take mine.
But no one puts their money where their mouth is.
