ok if you have a car you confident enough to race against a guy who is also that confident in his car why would you risk losing it, ot make it that good you would have to have put alot of hours and sweat and blood into it why would you risk losing your car to someone else that did the same...

i actually have a story about racing for pinks. this happened about 4-5wks ago. it was a nice sunday morning, and i was driving over to best buy to get my digital camera repaired. i was in the gti just cruising when some dad in a ford focus station wagon, with his two teenage sons, gets behind me @ a stop sign and starts to rev his engine. hhahaha, i just took off normally, but i heard him drop the clutch and take off after me.

the road we were on was windy and i lost him w/o a problem, but i ended up turning on a busier two lane. i stopped @ a light down the road, and he pulls up next to me and asks me, "u wanna race for pinks?". this guy is in his 40's, in a focus wagon, and he wants to race me...for pinks!?!?! i said sure, and pulled a solid 2-3 bus lengths by the time i topped out 2nd. i slowed down and waited for him to catch up so i could get my pink slip...unfortunatley, he said he was just kidding, and tried to take off and lose me.

i'm still looking for a rematch.

The only car I wouldn't race for pinks is a E36 328i because they seem to be demolishing EVERYTHING on the road these days! Watch out for them.

this guy (had a 97ish mustang gt) at my school used to talk ALOT of shit to my friend and about his h22 prelude. so he put a 100 shot in his lude and raced this guy for a couple of bills. you know the rest..

Man, I remember when I watched the gay and the gayer. I thought it was going to be some kind of cool car movie, but it turned out to be a flaming piece of crap. Then the second one came out, and I got conned into watching it. I was calling BS throughout the whole movie. ESPECIALLY when they were out running the E46 M3 + Viper. Damn it, it makes me so mad.

There is a bunch of "Ricers" around here that park at various places throughout the area. One night i was with a friend and we were driving by a lot filled with them and out of no where i said "LOOK! its the Slow and Mildly Aggitated" And thats what all of my friends and I call them now. And it still makes me laugh when i say that to someone.
Slow and Mildly Aggitated!!!! HAH! :buttrock

Granny shifting, not double-clutching like you should have been...you're lucky that 100 shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on your intake manifold...Had me?? Had me?? You never had your car!

i live in the DC metro area and there are soo many cats that will only race for money. i finally got a few of them to race me and beat the piss outta them!!!

i figured that i would get beat cause they would only race for money, but i was wrong.

how it happened was i convinced one of them to race me for fun and the rest just followed( just like in the slow and mildly agitated). after i beat the absolute piss out of him then another one was like " ok you need to lose". he raced me and i beat him worse then the fella before!!

now to some of their defenses i do have a carbon fiber hood and clear corners which gave me at least 4 cls and i wasn't even double clutching!!

p.s. double clutching has absolutely nothing to do with racing in a straight line.

Do people even race for pinks in real life? Maybe in movies or in the Honda forums, but who would be that stupid in reality.

I had a 77 Trans Am with a built 455 and was approached to race for pinks. I told the guy I would race for the blue book value of my car, $3,500. I showed him the cash and he changed his mind. He did ask why I would race for cash and not pinks. I told him that I had to much time into the car to lose it by busting a $30 U-joint (which I did tuning the engine). Should have run him for pinks as my ex-wife wrapped it around a utility pole the very next week. :(

im sure now and then...any1 with alot of money could race for pinks or some stupid guys who feel they need to prove themselves and their cars potential.
