was cruising along dorset road today, on the way back from an interviex, and pulled into the left lane at lights where the road spreads into 3 lanes, forgetting that the road shrinks back to 2 lanes just after the lights. so as i pulled up to a stop i took a look at the car that was sitting next to me. it was a clean latemodel skyline on p-plates. the driver revved it a bit, and despite my better judgement i decided to see if i could make it to the merge before him. so when the lights turned i hit the accelerater (quite softly actually, as i expected to see him flying past), looked to the left, couldnt see him, looked back and low and behold he was already eating my dust. made it to the merge safely ahead of him and laughed all the wayt home. incase you were wondering, the car that i was driving that beat a skyline off the line? a 1986 1.6l auto Ford Laser!!!馃榾

Not much traffic in Gladstone tho !

i like beating them off the start just to see them fly past you, when you have reached the spped limit. They look so impressed when they go past.
I just like thinking that if this was a 1/4 mile i wouldn't slow down and laugh as i see them in the rearview.

thats sounds like a mate of mine who always reckons he can outrun faster cars just coz they dont race him off the lights, ever thought the skyline wasnt trying, i mean cmon, a laser would never beat a skyline in a real race.

Rice-Boy is a stereotype. The typical Rice-Boy can be identified by his car, or rather what he does to it. Generally, Rice-Boy will start out with a car that was not meant to go fast (typically a Honda Civic), and attempt to "fix it up," usually consisting of aftermarket rims, lowering springs and an aftermarket exhaust system with a large exhaust tip.
Most Rice-Boy cars (or "Rice Rockets") have the usual complement of stickers proudly displaying features that the car might or might not have, most notably, the Honda VTEC sticker from the later model Preludes, and the plaques from the later model Integras.
Rice-Boys do not exclusively drive Japanese cars. There are quite a few fake Mustang '5.0's and Camaro Z28's out there, as well as quite a few strange looking Neons.

vwfool, im not an idiot. of course the bastard should have creamed me, what i found funny was that as soon as i rolled up he started revving his engine and creeping foward waiting for the lights, giving every indication possible that he wanted to teach me a lesson for happening to stop at the lights beside him. my little car has 0 acceleration, so i dont understand how i ended up ahead (beside reflex), maybe he missed a gear or 3. i just reckon after all his showing off with revving and everything that it was pretty darn funny for me seeing his face in the rearview, and yes, as soon as i hit the legal limit he did come around the outside and pass me.

You have to have some fun thou. I myself being an immature 20 year old have had my fair share of 'traffic light grandprix' sessions. The beetle of mine although only a single port 1600 is good fun. I get an awesome launch with the 205's on the arse and the squat action of the rear suspension. I rev the ring in 1st, drop 2nd to 30mph quite quick then when i know they well and truely have traction i back off and think it as a win as i genually did get them off at the lights. If they dont have the ability to get a good launch and do a typical rev and drop, i can win..... If they get the launch.... i'm f**ked. Love it when they do the big fly by..... Always makes me laugh. Even better when another km up the road here they are on the side of the road being issued with a ticket for speeding. :thumb
zac_smits 路
hehe so this is the time that you soup up the beetle to make it actually beat the skyline in a real race...
that really teaches them in a lesson... (oh and for those that are wondering..it works just as well i a golf 馃榾馃榾)
