Default You have to love showing up chavs!

NOW im not into street racing and dont drive like a dick, and am courteous on the road to others......but picture this:

Your waiting there for light to go green on one of those sets of traffic lights where after the lights 2 lanes go into one then theres a roundabout at the end of the road, you then look in your rear view and see someone coming up fast to undertake you in the inside lane?....... i then have an audi a4 come past me 4 up all waving so i gunned it and still managed to overtake them and get back in before them.....and even wave back......look on their faces was mint

God i love my RS

Someone in a silver focus ST 07 reg with bright orange mudflaps pulled out in front of me earlier down a back road then gunned it up to about 70mph so thought id show my appreciation by sitting on his arse or close to (enough to have time to brake if need be ish, lol) but he obviously didnt know the road as well as i did, a lot of people that make these sudden life or death, split second or last minute manouveres are the ones that usually shit it and back out when the person there doing it to reacts

I know exactly what you mean and maybe thats why i bit? as i use a diesel 306 for my daily commute to work and get the RS out in the evenings/ weekends weather permitted....as soon as someone comes behind u and sees the RS badge they sit on your rear egging you on so gotta bite once in a while

good man i can see the situation been there myself its annoying, i had a big 4x4 i acclelerated away from years ago in a stage 3 saph about 1 mile later came to a t junction busy road had to stop, well she was chasing so hard she crashed straight into me while i was stationary at the t junction !
it was a pissed up middle aged woman in a big expensive new 4x4 and she didnt like it, she even tryed to blame me saying "what was all that back there" to which i replied "accelerating away with more power, its not my fault your car is shit" lol

To the OP... you do realise that racing people in a modded Fiesta RS turbo is pretty much the eptimony of Chavdom don't you?

Nothing wrong with it though! I used to call my R34 GTR the chav mobile... and I KNOW I look like a total chav in my slammed and loud Clio 172 as well!

and as for my old multi coloured Stickered up 'Cossy' Jesus.... I may as well have had a burryberry cap on and a staff in the passenger seat!

But to say 'showing up the chavs' by beating them in a race in you Fiesta RST is a a little bit ironic IMHO

When you buy an RS Turbo, does the sales process always involve a labotomy?

They are starting to get worse than the XR owners

Years ago in my much modded RA28 celica running around 180bhp, I came up against a bog std citroen 2cv6 on a hill who wanted a burn away from the lights, it was pouring down, so I gave it too much pulling away sat there spinning briefly before sliding sideways and ripping a tyre open on a kerbstone, so embarrassing, and yes the young lady in the 2cv6 won!!
I used to race anything that wanted, but got bored as I got older.

I get it all the time in my Evo, but I just ignore them and let them get on with it, not worth wasting petrol especially when you know your car probably quicker.

My favourite chav moment was not long after I got the RS on the road. At a set of traffic lights when a 3 series compact pulled up along side me and started bouncing off the limiter with two baseball caps looking over giving me "the look".
Lights turned green and off he went wheels spinning with both driver and passenger looking over their shoulders to see where I was.

Unfortunately he had not seen the next set of lights were still red and went straight into the back of a transit van. Leaving me to pootle past at about 10 mph.

I had the exact same thing the other day by some cock with MASSIVE rally flaps on a civic type r, I hve seen him before driving like an absolute dick through town. He came up next to me at a set of lights on a dual carriageway, with his 'choons' on full revving the shit out of it trying to impress his mate with how loud his exhaust was, then he got promptly smoked

And the icing on the cake was the 2 lanes merge into one, all traffic was in the left lane and he thinks it is clever to fly down the outside and cut in right at the end, but no one would let him in, leaving him stuck on the hatched area in the middle of the road. Cock end

Boxster S has top speed of 170mph....

hardly poo.


Have you ever thought he wasnt actually racing you? and why was he smug?

These kinda posts do make me laugh. 99% of the time its always the Ford driver with the inferiority complex if you ask me. NOT the other driver being smug!

LOL, have to agree with Lee, how do you know what the other guy was thinking

When I see someone driving a nice car, I dont automatically assume they must be a complete cunt just cause they have a nice car, I just assume they are probably very good at whatever they do for a living!

Ah ok i see, to have a car you pull out of the garage and enjoy useing at weekends before you have to get back in your daily and potter too and from work makes you a chav? have to disagree TBH

If you actually knew me you would know i am nothing like a "Chav" just because you like a car that has the wrong image doesnt mean you should be tarred with the same brush bud.

Civic's are almost allway's up for it.Especially the newer Type R's.Round town even My lowly 2.0 escort humbles them.The most memorable incident was when my bro picked me up from a weekend of fishing(drink,bbq)and I was waiting on a bridge with a sore head, and my stalking rod.He pulls up in his stripped out scorpio 24v(he had a 328 bmw and a 3 yr old volvo s40 at the same time,so he's not what you'd call a chav).Anyway.I'm lying on the floor of the granny,stones pinging off the underside(that stripped out noise is great)and my bro stops at the lights,looks down and says "the tool in the civic is looking over and laughing".I said"at us?"and before I could even lift my head up(I'm lying on the floor remember)he floors it.After a few secs I lift my head above the door and say "where is the civic?"Well,the civic was a few car lengths behind and the brother was showing 110mph in a turty.He shouldn't have mocked us.He thought he was fast.He wasn't.And yes 100+in a you know what is bad.Don't do it.

Yet if you did it in a cossie you wouldnt be a "chav" take your cossie blinkers off lads! all this website/fast fords attitude seems to be if you dont own a cossie, no-ones interested and its the end of the world.......
