    Two polls without a comedy option. Hmmm.. \



    Anyways, no racing for me. Unless I'm on the one Stoo powered Specialized Rockhopper. It's fairly old, so there's no suspension mularkey.

    No car = no drag.



    And as for the pic... please chop it down to size.

    EDIT: thx for adjusting the pic



    I don't think an SUV is the safest thing to race.

    Street racers should be kicked in the nuts (or ovaries).

    I hate to tell you this, but your Mom's not street racing. She's just flooring it for a prolonged time to get it up to speed.

    Not really, because she usually races from light to light, and in that race the top speed doesn't matter, but what matters is the torque output. V8 Jeep Grand Cherokee has a high torque output in the 1st and 2nd gear, which means that the car gains speed faster if it driven at under 50 mph than at freeway speed. We (me and my Mom) prefer come out late in the evening, when all the fart-can Hondas come out to race. They have a high top speed, but it takes some time for them to accelerate, in contrast with my Mom's Jeep, which is rather slow on the freeway (but we still go about 90mph ).

    Your link is busted. Seems somebody violated angelfire's TOS...



    Street racing? In a $900 1994 Dodge Caravan? HAHAHAHAHA. Not a chance. That thing will haul on the highway, but I don't have the money to pay for gas and tires and all that crap that street racing requires.



    Oh yeah, and it's wicked stupid too.

    Take it from someone who has seen a lot of trauma...I work in a hospital, and I'm training to be a paramedic. I've seen tramua caused by a car accident at 45 MPH, you nail something goin 90...good luck, you're gonna need it.

    Off-topic:



    It's becoming more evident that you're not a 13 year-old girl. Give it up.



    I declare shenanigans, again.



    Didn't you say that you'd start a new thread to tell your story? The story of your Nazi upbringing, your street-racing parents, and the neighbourhood cross-dressers who scared you with their high-heels and beards.



    Please do, it should be amusing.

    My Mom's favorite trick is that if the road is level enough, she lets the brakes go and when the light turns green, she accelerates. The tach shows only about 3000rpm, which is lowered to about 2000rpm afer a few seconds, but no matter what the other guy does, he is a few yards behind for a some time, which is usually enough for him to realize that he lost the race. When my Mom does this trick, the front end of the car feels like it doesn't have much of a grip of the pavement and this trick only works when the car is in the rear-wheel-drive.

    How about this,



    Post a pic with you, your Mom, holding a sign that says "I street race with my daghter and she knows a shit load about cars." infront of you Jeep. This will aid your defence when stating that you are a 13 year old girl. It seems like most people here don't think you are who you say you are. For all we know you could be a cop posing as a 13 year old girl that is misguided so he can root out sex offenders. Well that's my guess atleat.
