whats with the idiot kid racers

Take a hundered dollar bill and photocopy it and make about 10 of them.

Never ever do that. Just putting a bill on a photocopier, even if you are planning on writing "Fake" on them, is instant grounds for a long prison sentence. The government does not #%@! around with fake bills.

A lot of times I'll rev at a car that I know will blow mine away and its purely due to the fact that I wanna see a fast car rip it up. You never see fast cars going fast. just owners cruising and preserving the car. I've got a lead foot but I guess preservation will be an issue soon. I'll prolly have this car for ten years when it gets here.

Usually if you race one, the result will start going around school and most people will leave you alone.

I hate sleepers as well. But it's funnier when an old POS beats something like a corvette because it's a "sleeper".

After I picked up my 2SS/RS M-6 LS3, I was sitting at a stop light on my way home from the dealer. Mind you, the car has 7 miles on it, a little Honda Civic with blacked out windows and a fart can (chrome auto zone muffler )pulls along side and starts revving the engine as if that little 4 cylander POS with a loud and obnoxious exhaust will beat an LS3...........Needless to say I didn't embarrass them. However, next light, passenger rolls down the window and said as if he truly believed it "This Honda can smoke ANY muscle on the street"....My reply "you and that piece of s#*t is not worth my gas"!!!! Of course, I got the finger as they sped off.......About 2 miles away from home I see a cop with a car pulled over.....and wouldn't you know it, that little fart canned ricer getting a ticket. I'm sure it was for noise pollution and not speed. Those cars can't get out of their own way.

Never under estimate your opponent ..... Around my area there are a bunch of imports that have more money into just their engines than you have in your car ..... Needless to say they are bad to the bone fast ....

Honestly they can go as fast as they want but as the end of the day the car is butt ugly and has no resale value at all.

I think that about sums it up. So many people love to stereotype...be it cars or people. I know guys like this too. Twin turbo a Z or dump $30k under the hood of a honda...you can hand just about any car its a**. Do the same with a Camaro...same results...

Just because the car looks like a heap doesn't mean its one. In all honesty, you'll see the guys that are dumping money in their car for pure performance couldn't give a damn about paint or a "killer" stereo. I've never understood the need to throw a $5,000 stereo in a car with a 1,000hp motor....

Rice has held there re-sale value pretty good...ie, subaru for one..About a dozen camaro's have moved into my area, pretty well all the same color.. I can see by next year there will be one in every driveway...except mine..Its just a car that was made famous by some cartoon movie..

Exhaust diverters - I'm curious if any Camaro5 members with diverters have been challenged at a traffic signal, and then opened the diverters and scared the challenger?

[1320junkie]

To me it's all about crossing the finish line first..if some rice beats you..you have to give them respect...cuz no matter what you say...they beat you

you may want to keep in mind that not all dodge trucks are slugs :p
