Yo I drop the hammer if some fool so much as looks at me. Yeah I dunno. Not a street racer either. I like having a license. ---

Haha all I can think of is that thread on nasoic where some kid posted a picture he had been working on that he thought was so cool. “I am a street racer, a street racer is never lost, blah blah blah.” It turned into like a million page thread of photochops of his nonsense. Searching google images now… ---

> [@Johnnyv412](#): > > Lol^^ > Viper had a hyundai with flames that he stored, I had an accord that I stored, ILC had a Specialized Fat Boy, So many NYSpeed members store civics, SO what. He prolly paid almost as much for the scion as Viper did for the m3. Id store it if I liked it. and Viper drives the M3 year round, there is no reason not to. > [@Joe](#): > > I think it’s not so much cost as the fact that it’s a FWD econobox. Personally, I would never spend 10x more on one car than another, then drive the cheaper one the majority of the time. If I’m paying for something nice that’s going to depreciate anyway, I’m going to use it, unless it snows and it physically won’t move. :word: completely agree, unless it is a car that is actually appreciating I am going to drive the fucking piss out of it if it can move. ---

There are plenty of people on here with Beaters for their Civics or fucking shitty f-bods or mustangs or whatever else. Fuck, he didn’t pay $6000 for the tC, they do cost a bit more than a used car. :shrug: Just saying. ---

Any race I get into is usually pre-arranged. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/selecting-opposition-when-street-racing/46417.md?page=2)
