Top Ten Things You Can't Say When You Win or Lose A Streetrace

Racing determines one thing, who has the faster car and occaisionally who is the better driver. It seems that most people have a need to expand racings goal to try and prove what car is better. Clearly that isn't true, all it proves is who's car is faster and everyone should try to keep that in mind. If you want to prove what car is better go get a copy of consumer reports.

These are the top ten streams of bullshit I can't stand hearing after a race.

1. Money Game - Value of the car or dollars in mods are no excuse for winning or losing if you agreed to the race.

2. Fast vs. Nice - Losing to a faster car with no interior or rust is still a loss. No crying that you still win because your car is "nicer". Nicer is an opinion and can't be argued and has ZERO bearing in a race. If you want to argue nicer then take your car to a car show and skip the race.

3. Ricer Excuses - Oh hey bro your tune isn't right? You're on low boost? Then don't race or if you choose to and lose, then you lost and your car is slower.

4. Built vs Bought - If you lose to a douche that can't turn wrenches but can sign a check for a sweet new 5th gen then you still lost. If you have an issue with it then don't race.

5. AWD vs FWD vs RWD - Oh you're fwd is spinning? Your RWD won't hook? You won't launch your AWD? That's cool, then don't agree to a race you can't run and then complain about it after you lose.

6. Stock vs. Modded - You got beat by a faster car than yours with more mods? Then you got beat because your car is slower. Go mod it and STFU about your loss.

7. My Friends Car - If you lose or are too slow for a race, don't throw "your friends car" into a race. Saying "well my friends car will rape that thing" doesn't make you faster, cooler or more bro'd up. Either get a car of your own or shut up.

8. Well in the corners.... - Nobody wants to hear how graet your car is in the corners after you lose a street race. Quit trying to validate your slow POS. Either setup a road course race and prove it or shut the fuck up and don't straight line race.

I could only think of six, anyone else have some to add??

think that sums it up. now if people actually followed it. and half of the people on here that use those lame excuses are the biggest complainers of people doing the same thing.

Well I just have something to add to #4. If its just about who's car is faster then who gives a fuck if its built or bought? That has 0 bearing on who's car is faster. If someone has a nicer car they shouldn't feel ashamed of it. Now if they are a d-bag about it and don't know anything thats fine but thats a different story.

Also can we make #7, "oh well, you should race my friends car."

exactly. who cares if its built or bought. if you decide to race knowing this the dont be a bitch when you lose or dick when you win.

I think we are saying the same thing about #4. If you lose or win with a bought or built car you still lost so don't cry about it if someone just paid their way to a faster car.

On #7.....good addition.

#9. i almost had you bro
#10. it doesnt matter if you win by inch or by a mile winning is winning!
amidoinitright??

I like what you did here and we should make up some shirts that says "I am douche" and they have to wear it at all meets.

Well this site should be pretty quiet after this.

Well people can say whatever they want, but this should help avoid these constant recurring arguments becuase there is a counter argument to benefit anyone regardless of outcome or cars that are raced.

I get it Peter.


I'm not knocking this motion at all

Number 9 could be you have more or less power then I do so you should won or lost.
Munber 10 could be I only have a 4 or 6 cylinder you have a V8 or V10.

This goes along with the ricer excuses but pisses me off everytime I hear it "Your car is running X amount of boost my cars not running any." Cool, get some boost then pussy.

Or vise vers "your engine is 3 times bigger than mine" Shoulda thought about that before you bought a 1.6 liter

Lets race to some rediculous amount of speed with a 400hp car

I only race to 250mph.

I am with this guy.

^ me too, the all-terrain tires get a little shaky after that point

ANYTHING related to making excuses about displacement. Oh, well if my car had 5 liters it would be making 1000hp! No, it wouldn't. Get the fuck out of here with your ricer math.

Maybe we should also have some guidelines for call outs to so nobody gets offended or has to listen to a bunch of useless smack talk???

Every callout goes through a predictable series of events that run in parallel with the 7 steps of grieving. lol

I personally think

#11 should be. "I'm Steve E.... Enough said.".

my car isnt fast enough but i got a bike that can beat you.

No, but because you have been strangely quiet in this thread and I needed to poke at you to get some life. Beside your 2 gear broken tranny nova would still beat my dodge

#12 "...well in the top end I'd take you for sure." what top end is 120+ not good enough?
#13 "....i can't race from a dig my clutch is broken/slipping." is that why i just watched you do a burnout?
#14"....I'm out of gas/i was out of gas." no no you where not, i saw your gas gauge.
#15 ...."my trans is broken." no you just can't shift i have driven your shitbox earlier this week.
just some of what i've heard. lol
