Just figured some people ought to check this out. :) Specifically if anyone knows a jackass in the PCola area with a blue semi-riced Civic who has tried to race me around campus twice now. Let him know why I just watch him fly by

You know what I always tell them when they try to get me to race...I say "Yeah, biatch...I'm driving a Cougar...I wouldn't race your grandmas Lark with this thing"...They usually laugh and call you chicken sh#t...Which is the real truth but you feel good about the grandma story you made up and don't look l like a nerd qouting "State Racing Laws"

You are chicken [censored] then. On the strip, Ill race just for the fun of it if I get a challenge, doesnt matter if I can win or not, sometimes its just nice to lose with dignity. On the road, hell no. I dont trust the other person racing, I dont trust potential other people on the road, and I dont trust my radar detector enough. Its just not going to happen. Ive been in the back of a squad car enough for one lifetime, Ive also been in enough accidents. I dont need either again.

If they're really outrageous, tell them about the Bay Bottom Crawl (http://www.evscc.com/html/bay_bottom_crawl.html) in the Keys, and trust theirs'll be one of the cars that goes into the swamp every year!

That's ok...Being chicken sh*t is fine with me, if that's what you think...I was actually thinking more like border line retarded but I was trying to be nice...Plus I've been out of highschool for some time now and I don't have the energy to screw around with kids and their toys anymore.

First off, you d o know Im not trying to be an ass, right? Just broed over here....
Also, when I was drag racing at the track, I dont think I ever raced a high school kid. I was one of the youngest people out there, and I didnt start until a couple years after high school. Ive noticed that the street racers tend to be younger, they have less to lose.
