Default What is the point

I look at it like 'whats the point'. Unless we mess up in the Cobra we generally know the outcome. I just look at them and smile confidently. I might gas it now and then for a moment to let them know they are not dealing with a Miata and that is usually enough.

I had one guy in a rice burner drive back and forth by my car when it was parked. Each time he would race the engine. He was obvioulsy looking for a race. The next time he came by I was back in the car with the motor idling. Just as he got right next to me I revved the engine up. The look on his face was priceless. Never saw him again.

Be aware that there are some EXTREMELY fast rice burners out there. But they are few and far in between.

Street racing is dangerious at best. We all push them around now and again a bit but a full blown race is irresponsable. Let them go.
