![]() Why is it that every time I seem to pull up next to a riced out Civic, Integra, Eclipse, Accord, Prelude or anything else with a fart-pipe and fire extinguisher they always have to throw a couple of revs? My car is almost all stock looking, it is white, black conv. top, stock pony rims, removed emblems. I think it is the sound of my exhaust rumbling that makes them shake and they can't control their foot and it hits the gas pedal! (LOL) I will almost always throw back a rev and look over at them to see if they will bite. Most of the time they do and if the street is clear and it is not too dark outside so I can see around me, I will let them have it across the street then I will let off and let them catch me, once they get to my door, I get on it again and blip the throttle to keep even with them and start laughing outloud at them. It ususally instigates the typical ricer fly-by that we have all grown accustomed to. Why do they all seem to try to race mustangs? Is it because they "think" they can beat one or do they just want to see if their new "Neuspeed" hood stickers and "PIAA" driving lights added the 25 hp that their Import Mania magazine said they would? Is anyone else tired of all these little angry bees buzzing around on the streets or is it just me? I think I want to get a bumper sticker that says "If you want to race me with your Rice, let me go home and get my mountain bike cause your not worth the gas in my tank!"
