When you know you have more mods, but racing you would be a "waste of gas for them".

When they don't understand the basic car lingo and get all defensive and say, "*****, Don't test my Gangsta"

Both happened a while ago. That **** was funny, plus the one we used on the ricers:

(in reference to their tac) "Is that a clock?" and "ok we'll go, but do you have a clock, cause those things make power?"

When you have a significant disadvantage, and they brag that they beat you by a car length like it wasn't even close. Some people distort the truth so bad, thank god for digital cams.........

When some mother ****** you've never seen before comes up to you out of the blue and says "Wanna race for Pinks?" WTF?
Like I'm going to put my 17K car up against your damn 500 dollar honda for pinks. Why not for ***** and giggles or for a couple hundred bucks. . Tell you what I have 20 bucks in my pocket and WalMart has an upgrade for the ricer mentality go buy coolant and a gatorade. Mix and drink reapeat untill death.

I have yet to get upset with anyone while racing. I guess it might just be my local, but here even the ricers I've raced are pretty cool about it. I live in a rather small town, so I know (or soon get to know) most of the people I race. As far as people demanding that I sprayed (It has happened a couple of times that I can remember), I take that as a compliment . I love the look on theire face when I pop the hood, and 'tada' no lines.

The only time I get upset is with myself when I loose. Especially if it is something stupid that could be helped like missing a shift (yup, it has happend, believe ir or not. I think if M6 drivers here would be truthful 90% would admit they have screwed up shifting at least once in a manual car.)

cops

pussies saying thier car "should run XX.XX" but they are rockin street tires and won't run don't bring a knife to a gun fight!

having no "street" cars to run since they are all too slow, but the "race" cars are all too fast. i usually can't find a good run, usually it will be a slaughtering for me or im getting slaughtered.

I love it when they say..."well, when I get my turbo....or...when I gey my nawws....or...when I get my tune....." This is when I beat them by 20-30 cars...

I also love it when they say I sprayed them, then I offer to take the bottle off, unhook the lines, take the relays out, etc. and they still won't race. Pussies.

the BEST is when I beat a sport bike, and they come back with a nitrous'd or turbo'd busa to race me....had that happen twice...I took it as a compliment!

When you're next to someone trying to race them and they gun it right before you get to a red light or when there are cars 2 feet in front of you

I love it when some local yokels want to race you and you look at their car and it's a 72 Nova with the hood held down with baling wire and all sorts of loose wires hanging around the engine. Then they get mad when you tell them you don't even want their car near you STOPPED, nevermind at any speed... sure as **** their hood would come off or they do something f*cked up and mess up your car...

The other excuse I've heard is "Well, if I wasn't a one-legger (no posi) I would have won..." and they were like 8 cars back.
