White vans! :xxx:

I was racing a Ferrari 360 a couple of weeks ago and my drivers side inner wheel arch decided to fly out!! Erm.....Supercharged Jag was another good one. Thats about it really. Don't seem to get bothered too often really by other cars.

Have to say Audi so far are the worst culprits. TT's are the worst but usually easy meat, have sat on the bumber of several 225's and left a 3.2 behind after he pulled out behind me and started to try to push me along.

 

Best one has to be an S4 though (previous generation 2.7 one not the V8!) - very even match as he seemed to have a bit more mid range and catch up, but I pulled away again at the top of 4th and 5th.

Only Corsa's and cr@p like that seem to want to race me :rolleyes:

Raced an RS6 once. Started racing at about 100mph but it whooped ma ass!!

All of them really - they always regret it too ;):D

Not that many want to race me, I think there scared of me!!! :eek:

 

In my bag'o'shag though they all wanna race me, and then they really cry when i beat them :rofl: :D

 

The only traffic light GP i have ever had in the Z was against a mate in his Cosworth. It was very comical, He was in nuteral as the lights changed, revved the tits off the engine then realised he was in neuteral and i was in 1st (thinking i was in Drive) and beat him to about 50mph ish while pissing myself with laughter because he wasn't in gear, then the cnut came flying by me.

 

Rich:)

So an aston martin vantage which was pretty close but overtook him at about 160

 

BMW M3 new shape on the M6 easy race he never stood a chance.

 

and

 

Yammy R1 - this was the race that broke my car neadless to say he beat me, only just until smoke poured from my exhausts, the rest is history

 

Kirbz

I find it's mostly the Boxter boys that want to race yer.......until the next set of lights, and then all of a sudden they don't rev up their engines :rolleyes:

My best had to be an argument that started out side a club with two blokes who had scoobys one who went to my school, they was all saying how they would beat me because i would never get the power down, and all the tunning crap theres had!

I see them a couple of nights later raceing each other down a dual carrage way notched the 300 into third on to standard boost undertook both in the bus lane and gave a little wave. Did'nt realise they are not that quick

I gubbed a Masserati 3200 on the M8 after he came up behind me flashing his lights...Ralph Lauren wearing, slicked back hair twat!

 

Same on a new Beemer 540i, pishing with rain and he came up behind me also flashing lights and I was sitting at 90mph. Into 3rd gear, a little loss of traction and 145mph later just a dot in my mirror! He had the courtesy to give me a nod as I drew off at my junction. Respect.

 

A Golf GTi took off past me on the way down from Aberdeen the other week, I drew out to catch him up and at 120mph and was still no closer, he came off at the next junction but a pretty rapid little motor - not standard I think!

How the fook did speedfreak vote twice? :confused:

 

Audi TT`s have it for me.

 

cheerz, mickey

:rofl: Had a MAXed up Corsa on the way back from B19rks house today Try and take me at the lights and then tried to under take me, silly :xxx::xxx: i was on me GSX 1400......:rofl::slap:

bikes always seem up for a bit of fun

evo's bloody hate them

most others just pull over to the slow lane

Audit TT's especially ones that have been modded!! All bar-stewards!! :xxx:

 

I was doing some heavy speed on the M69 one morning when a Audi RS6 came by me as though I was standing still. Didn't try and catch it just admired it's awesome effortless speed...beautiful piece of kit!! :shock:

i was coming on to the m5 going southbound behind a bmw m3 e46 he knew i was there so i held the revs at around 3000rpm,icouid see he was up for it so he booted it! then i did,not only left him behind but also the traffic that was ajourning the slip road. :rofl: bye bye mr 37k mine cost 5k so f**K u

 

and bikes always want to race coz they now the car is fast but most of them i let by!respect to the men/women on 2 wheelz differant kettle of fish :cool:

those RS6s are 4.2 V8 TTs or something! :bow:

never had a proper off-the-lights race with anything decent, except my mate's 1.5 VTEC Civic cos my engine's cold and det's like a byatch. He thinks his is faster cos it's a "VTEC" :nelson: :smw: :rofl:

only real fun i had was with an oldish bloke in a 305 - he was absolutely caning it off the lights - sitting forward in his seat, revving the hell out of each gear, and i'm sitting back in my seat waiting for him to catch up, then pressing my toe down an extra millimetre on the gas and flying past him again. oh the fun...

Golf GTi's always try to race everything as they reckon they have fast cars... newer ones owned by mid 30's semi successful (salary wise) professionals who know nothing about cars.

 

TT's though are the ones... they think they have a god given right to be faster than anyone else. Proving them wrong is so much fun.

 

Am I the only biker on here who often finds "fast" cars trying to race you on the bike when in reallity you were just casually pulling away and riding along??? My Z is quick, but my Zx6R is a completely different league, let alone things like R1's and other real performance or large engined bikes... only car that matched my bike was a Ferarri 360 Modena... acceleration wise was identical between the 2 vechiles between 140-165mph.

I had one VERY memorable dice with a car when I was on my bike. I was on a Suzuki GSX-R750, he was in.......a Lamborgini Countache! :bow: We 'raced' between about 10 sets of traffic lights on the A4 near West London. Ok, so I beat him every time, but give the guy credit he was REALLY trying - which is unusual for a 'real' supercar. :D Loads of tyre smoke from those hoooooge hoops, and he nearly did a do-nut pulling away from one set of lights. :D :hyper:

Not really come accross a challange yet!

But I love the way I can overtake people when there doing 50, I put it into 3rd (manual) by the time Ive passed I'm doing 85! Effortless

OIC, you can have mutiple choices... :slap:

general agreement with all that is said above, audi tt drivers seem to be esp prone to having a pop....on the subject of RS6 i was gonna buy one but compared the price and looks the zx won...i think i was under the spell of the bull advert...
