Prestoar Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 I have tried like hell to get somebody anybody to race or even play a little. I have been by a few possibles at red lights...whats the best way to get them to play without being rude? Going down the highway whats the best way? I have tried going even and gunning it and letting off and going even again..and even falling back a bit but no takers.....at what point does all these attempts turn to rudeness or me looking like a jackass? I'm in a small community and the only SSS in the area...I don't want a bad rep if you know what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allballz57 Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 I have a rather aggressive driving style so usually when I am going to pass someone and I notice they are being reluctant to let me I know "IT'S ON LIKE DONKEY KONG".other than that I usually set up a race outside the vehicle with small talk like"so how slow is that thing anyway?"

Show Time Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 (edited) Maybe you could try having a cardboard sign printed in big letters saying " WANNA RACE? " with a smiley sign, sitting underneath your seat so you could pull it out when the time comes? I would have to laugh if someone pulled up to me and flashed me that sign with a grin on their face............

brobradh77 Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 When I race I usually pull up next to the victim and rolled my window down to get their attention and ask them is that thing fast and then ask if they want to go on green or at a roll didn't matter to me. If they are interested you will know then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jond983 Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 (edited) i've never provoked a race i've only had about 4-5 with the truck, but mainly i'll just pull up to whoever @ a redlight wait for the green take off kinda quick giving them the impression that i wanna race and if they bite then it's time to throw down, just try that and if you don't have an exhaust on your truck get one, because when your truck sounds good or better than the other guy's that in itself provokes a race, it's fun you should try it Edited January 23, 2007 by Jond983 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmids5.3l Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 (edited) I'd Imagine reving your engine at a light would be the best bet, if not a short burn out. I do the same thing on the highway, mash it for a split sec and let off, just so it downshifts for a sec. Latest attempt with that was with some riced out Saturn on the highway. Looked like some highschool kid...he wouldnt go. Their the easiest to lure in too. Id say being too rude would be doing a massive burnout at a light while flipping off the other vehicle Edited January 23, 2007 by SchmidDaddY (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 (edited) i dont really try and race unless i roll up on someon ein a vette or somethign that would normally kick a stock ss ass. i either open up my cutouts or just look over with my window down and give em a big smile. Just give it time ,someone will try you i guarantee it.those are the best races to win. just make sure your safe and dont pull any stupid manuevers .

I would have to laugh if someone pulled up to me and flashed me that sign with a grin on their face............ I like this idea, except my sign will be a nice plastic sign with neatly arranged letters i dont really try and race unless i roll up on someon ein a vette or somethign that would normally kick a stock ss ass. i either open up my cutouts or just look over with my window down and give em a big smile. a 5000#(ish) truck and a Corvette? A stock Vette would be gone in the first 60', thats not fair Chase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racing's not that big a deal to me I know what my truck can do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. If somebody made up some nice signs that read "wanna run it", or something like that on them, like a pit sign, they might sell. I've been seriously thinking about taking the SVT and Lightning emblems off my truck, as every ricer that notices them wants to run it, and I'm not going to risk losing my license running them all.............
