I was just cruising through town and ran into one of my school mates from junior school who now plays football for s****horpe, he was driving an audi tt 225 convertible and his mate had an impreza i think (dont know which model but it was a new one [not the brand brand new one] it had the big bonnet scoop and huge spoiler).

 

so he tells me to turn off onto to the main road where there is a set of lights with three lanes and off we go, got off to a sluggish start but left the audi standing and was surprised at how quickly and in such a short distance i reeled in and overtook the subaru, never raced anything worth racing before so didnt know what to expect. very chuffed indeed, and the guys did give plenty of respect to my 16 year old nissan. :nana2:

 

then on my way home some twat in brand new subaru legacy gt/st? is driving up my arse, i cant even see his headlights! while some hero in alfa romeo tspark or woteva they are called is revving away next to me. pulled up to the lights by which time the subaru had undertaken me and they're both revving away. lights went green (the road here is about 5 lanes wide) so as it oppened up i floored it and it was bye bye subaru and alfa. :slap:

 

then we get to the next lights and the legacy driver wants another go, so again i wipe the floor with him going round an s-bend. lights up ahead are red so i ease onto the breaks and he stops next to me and says 'how much you pushing out?'

 

'bout 300' i said, he goes 'this is only 250 and im still here', at which i turned away laughing at him. he was only their cos we had driven all of 400 yards and i wasnt running a red light for his dad or anybody else. ****er :mac1:

Tread with caution! My mate lost his licence last year through a Legacy doing the very same thing. It was an unmarked Traffic cop :rant:

Ouch! Not good. Always best to just ignore the provocation... although I can't say I always have or do.

 

Agree about Imprezas though: the 0 - 60 is pretty impressive but they're not hard to beat (even with a clutch on the way out).

i had a impreza off the lights in walsall i was at the lights, nice hot day next to a pub with about 30-40 people outside. scubbie pulls up and sees alot of the people looking over towards us so he starts reving his engine to show he wanted a race. lights turn green and it was bye bye scubie he was well pissed

tut, tut street racing is bad!! i always say no but it never bloody listens!!!

Haha, blo*dy dis-obedient Zeds eh? Mine sometimes has the same problem but now I have 9 points it tends to behave itself a bit more. Only because it knows it can't come out to play if I have twelve.

mine never behaves especially when the other paty is a jumped up baseball capped chav in some over done hairdryer powered chav car corsa turbo, wicked man innit!

Personnally I love it when you let the other guy think he's got you by allowing him to noise out in front of you and then at the last second buz right past and wave bye bye.

Oh yes this ones good too: You have some idot on your tail through a village centre, trying his hardest to pass you while your doing the speed limit. Then end of village national speed limit and your gone leaving them standing its just so much fun.

red scooby was basically parked in my boot going up this carrigeway once, didnt rise to it and im glad i didnt, an audi a4 overtook us and scooby put on his blue lights and pulled him over !!!!!!!!!!, Surely if they prevoke you they are breaking the law though as they are tailgating?? or that not law in uk?

cops are not the law they are bloody above it, for instance i reckon indicators are an potional extra on cop cars!!

Tailgating is an offence, it's considered dangerous driving and driving without due care and attention. A police officer a few years ago got caught in a sting on the M1 near Bedford after he targetted lone woman drivers. Finnaly some bright spark came up with a plan she put a video camara on the back shelf and when he tailgated her expecting her to speed up she filmed the whole thing and it went to court. He lost.

Unless your're down in Conrwall Dave where that isn't so much of a problem!!! As you know not as many Speed Cameras or Traffic cops down here!!! (Probably spoken too soon and I'll get busted today for saying that now! :mac1:)

That seems about right some police officer 6 years ago took it into his head to suddenly pull across in front of my MG no indication no flashing lights etc I only just managed to get out of his way in time. I then pulled up got his number and made a formal complaint. Forgot to mention I was on my way for a job interview at Bedford Police H/Q needless to say after offering me the job they then 2 days later withdrew the offer.

:rofl: :rofl:

 

I thought excactly the same :D

There are far more everyday road users whose cars seem to have no indicators. :headvswal

Nice one mate,

That is a victory for all of us...

Yup, that really pi55es me off, I can remeber once I was following a cop car, he only had one brake light :nono: it was an old Astra, so I followed him and he soon pulled up, so I parked behind him and told him about his brake light, he said he better get it back to the sattion, too bloody right he should. If it were me I would have got a producer !

oh yeah!!! i was trying to think where sh!t-thorpe was!!! :rofl: :rofl:

 

Might be an urban legend, but going back about 10 years now I found out you couldn't use "s c u n thorpe" (no spaces obviously) in email addresses for the same reason: emails with swear-words in weren't permitted (probably still aren't), and that would just send all the filters ballistic.
