why do these lunatics always try to race us?

I thought we needed something fun to lighten things up around here. Don't you hate the clowns who think something like a racing stripe makes them as fast as us? lol

Funny

I had some small Mazda speeding behind me yesterday as I was naturally changing lanes. No race stripe, but the guy had good speed so I switched lanes to make room for him.

I appreciate fast drivers that KNOW how to drive there cars and just want to speed along with me or get ahead. But I don't appreciate people with ricers or whatever that try to keep up with me, or attempt to aggravate me by riding my tail or cutting me off. Actually, I haven't had anyone cut me off in the Bimmer yet

I like the sleeper quality I portray... I take it easy, and choose to let people pass me rather than get worked up and give in to competing with them. Then, when I feel like it and I got a nice stretch, I just open it up and I'm long gone.

Racing stripes have an aerodynamic value but spinny hubcaps provide upwards of 10hp at each wheel that has one.

I wonder if anyone notice the irony in this also. Led paint is also very heavy (so there wont be hauling any faster with the paint on them). hehehe

Is led paint what you use if you want to change the color of the lights in the door handles? On the other hand, LEAD paint is heavy.

hahaha, i don't know what is going on anymore after lunch. I am just talking about paint with lead in them which were very commonly used in the old days. Cannot get those type of paint anymore, they are illegal to produce since they are considered unhealthy. spell it whatever you want led or lead, lol.

i'm a non agressive driver but if people around me do something stupid i will fuck with them.

for example, if i'm in a lane and someone awkwardly tries to pass me on the right, i'll accelerate and just drive next to him, not allowing him to pass. this makes him feel extremely awkward and dumb, and after a few seconds of blocking him i'd usually just floor it and get in the right lane after i can only see specs of dust in my rear view.

hahaha, that sort of driving habits lead to keying and highway shootings. Why don't you just let them be. If they wanna go in front, let them. So many hostilities on the roads.

frankly, i don't feel like my car is fast at all so unless it's a beater that is trying to race me, i don't even attempt to open up the throttle but instead take off like a grandma which pisses them off to no end. their cars usually sound like little girls fighting over a barbie doll when they rev 'em up and the guys with real cars instantly recognize it's just a 3er that i'm driving and don't even bother looking over to that side.
