I Cant Get People To Race Me... What Am I Doing Wrong?!?
 

well, i have had 2 races on the street... but they were bolth from a light.

i can not get anyone to race me when going down the highway, it must be something im not doing.

i tryd to get a new camaro to race, i pulled beside, threw him a rev or two, then dropped to 3rd, and took off. nothing from him...
i pulled up to a viper,(i knew id loose, just wanted to see by how much) and proceded to do the same thing. I have tryd this on hondas, i tryd to get a gn to race, practically everything, but no luck.

i am not really sure how to get people to race????

please help?!?

Maybe the people you are challenging have the restraint and sense not to race with the possibility of getting a ticket?

try just crusin along with your door and their front fender. My be hop it every now and then. Usually after a while they nail it.

I'm usually pretty careful about when and where I'll race somebody. Around town there's a few stretches of road with no side streets someone can pull out of and no places for cops to hide. I sometimes get a race on a Friday or Saturday night if theres no traffic. Even then I'll usually only take it up to about 85 or so. On the freeways it's got to be pretty wide open and I won't go flying past someone else who might not realize there's somebody going past them 30+ MPH faster than they're going. I've found the best way to get someone to race is to drive a little aggressively and keep the revs up. Hell, I had a guy older than I am in an Integra mashing his pedal at me this weekend. It was kinda funny while it lasted.

Find a chevelle every chevelle will race and almost every el camino, I dont know its just something about the people that drive those cars they just like to race.

If that dont work pull up to an LS1 at a light and tell him have you chased a ford lately, there ego's are so big they wont let you get away!

When you see a Z28 at a stop light. Roll down your window and tell him/her them that they suck and take off towards the highway.:D

Hey man, Sometimes all it takes is just sitting at a light and revving it. I know that when I had my stang on the road all i would have to do is just sit at a light and give it a few throttle blips. Of course the 4 1/2 Inch Dynomax Bullets did their job!!! lol But I used to have people come out of nowhere beside me wantin to go. So it all depends on where your at but simple things like revving the car as you go through town, or giving it some throttle blips usually gets people's attention. Good luck!!

My advice is don't resort to insults. Wait till you see someone acting aggressively and THEN COME ON STRONG. If i see someone who has acted aggressively, then I feel I have the right to come on to them STRONG AND TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER.

Then I rev once long and hard. On green I go as hard as I can not waiting for anyone. Then it's take no prisners come what may....win or lose.
