My Teg's bone stock including the plastic wheel covers.

In a 5-block commute to the gym, I had two imports wanting to race me...a Turbo Beetle, then a Protege.

Also, I seem to be a target for lowered Civics.

I mean, WTH?

My car's STOCK!

So if I were driving one of my other vehicles, would these guys be trying to race me? How would they feel if I picked on them?

Really now!

 

a. its because what u drive
b. its because where u live

its hard to tell whats under the hood from outside

edit - friends dont let friends drive american cars

 

Don't feel bad, I too have idiots try to race me in my bone stock Integra LS. It annoys me to no end when I'm cruising down the highway at 75, they crank up on me at 85, hit the brakes, and pace me. Stop lights are not as bad because I just let them crank up and take off while I'm shifting leisurely.

 

My car is a two door with alloys and a spoiler, that might explain some of it. I had a Civic EX coupe which lacked the alloys or the wing and it happened at a much smaller frequency with that car. And when I had a Nissan Sentra nobody gave me a second glance...

 

none of that here, please.

 

I used to get that a lot more before I took off the GSR badge and the DOHC vtec badge. I neer used to get it when I lived in Texas, the pick up guys would not even notice you

 

Yep, I really have 600 hp under-hood. I keep the stock exhaust and skinny 195/60/14 tires to fool everyone.

 

I always have domestics and usually higher end imports trying to race me such as S2000s or 350zs.

 

thats weird because my car is turboed and no one ever tries to race me. maybe the FMIC scares them??

just dont worry about them man, dont waste your gas

 

ricers try to race anyone with anything cause there :ghey:
