What's up with all the trash talk?

01-01-2001, 01:00 PM

Quantam I have always been a respectful winner AND loser. If I beat someone I always tell them what is done to my car if they ask. Or if they beat me then I will want to talk to them and see what they run. (These situations are only true when you are not street racing for money).

I have street raced for money many times. However, I have street raced more without money on the line. I am pretty involved with the street racing scene. I have had my share of wins and losses.

The only time when I start to get upset is when someone puts my car down. I have talked trash, it was a time when a supposed friend and I raced and he lied about it and said my car was a slow pos for having the mods that I had done to my car (Read '98SS story, in street racers forum).

I agree and see where you are coming from, but its everywhere. I was an all state middle linebacker at 5'10" 165lbs. I used to take so much crap from people that were bigger than me, saying they were going to declete me. Instead of going down onto their level, I focussed all of my anger into kicking their *** with my pads.

The philosophy that I carry into all competitive events: I respect all who compete, even trash talkers, but they will get what is coming to them. But if you can't defeat them then you must bite down and take it like a man.
