I had that happen to me this week by a stickered up Cavalier, I didnt waste my gas unless he would of really tried to egg me on several times. Ive yet to have an actual street race, I never seem to either get beside worthy cars, or no one wants to run.

We should have a sticky for people continuing to run a ricer-fly-by.

I'm guessing they're hoping there better gas milage causes us to run out of gas first so they can claim victory.

I think they're thinking;

"Oh, I wasn't ready..."

"My clutch slipped..."

"My turbo wasn't spooled up..."

"I wasn't in my powerband..."

"I'm better from a dig / I'll rip you outta the hole..."

"I'm better from a roll / my top end'll kill ya..."

Excuses, excuses, excuses. They're basically trying to work their way through each and every one of them. That's where the multiple fly-bys come from.
