So here goes...... Im in a local car club with alot of tuners or should i say ricers. There is some honda's nicely modded but its mostly cosmetic. Anyways so tonight we all met up for run/cruise. Well most of the guys are young as well as me. Iam only 19 soon to be 20.
There was like 25 cars on this cruise. We start out and everyone is going pretty fast and we get at our first stop point. We start going again and its slowed down to a much nicer pace as we head to our second spot. We get at the second spot, a parkade type spot.
Guys are reving the **** out of their engines, melting tires and going crazy. So then the cops start showing up and im just like well **** this i really dont want the attention from the cops. They pick on me enough for window tint let alone anything else.
So i left with my buddy(has an 01 supercharged maxima)their was a big fight between two of the local car clubs becuase of this last year and seperated the two groups becuase the older mature guys didnt like it and didnt want the negative attention from the cops and what not. I grew out of that phase quick after losing a beautiful maxima i had invested so much into and just how serious things can get..its not worth it.
Iam modding my car for attention on the street but not that kind..if i want to act a fool, ill go out of town to the drag strip. Safer. And no tickets for smoking some rice. lol. Anyways, im just pissed off becuase i thought people matured and werent going to act like this, this season(summer). Guess i was wrong.
Also becuase its alot of ricer type cars with body kits and wheels and underglow..my saab and my buddies maxima doesnt get the respect and attention they deserves becuase they are the nicest things their. Not as flashy but clean and classiest. Ugh ****ing rice!!!...Anyways just thought id post something a little different and get some opinions and thoughts you guys have.
I'm way ,more "mature" than you but I go to local meets 'cause most of the guys are cool and I like cars. Yes the Saab ( especially teh 9-5 but my vigen gets em every time) does not always get much repsect but there is a way to freak them out. Get is nicely modded and go to a dyno day and jsut smile as they all drop thier jaws if your car hits over 300WHP, then just slowly dirve off after you say " it just does not seem to be running right today..."

They'll grow up one day - it takes high intelligence and incredible insight to become "Saab aware" - many people will never aspire to such heights - its a burden we have to live with

Well some people become "saab aware" when they hear "nnnnnnnnnNNNNNNN WWWOOOOOSSSSSSSHHHTT!!!!!!!!!!!" As i pass by.
Car does turn a couple of heads but it wasnt so much the attention that pissed me off becuase i know its a sleeper and ill be laughing my *** off when im pushing 260whp 300tq on the dyno but the fact that there was a big outrage between the two local car clubs,people still act a fool and go crazy.
Im 20 and still filled full of immaturity but i mean come on. Like one guy put his car(mazda mx-6) up to a pole so he could smoke out the front tires. I mean COME ON! if you got to do that with your car its pretty useless. Im just getting annoyed with the **** that people do becuase its causing the cops to look at me like everytime i get in my car im out to go street racing and smoke tires. Im shure some of you guys have encountered this. One last thing. I always get these grandpa jokes about my car becuase its a saab. Just wondering whats the worst or some of the insults you get about your cars as well.
Ps. Would 01-02 projectors fit in my 99 becuase i was thinking about putting projectors in my 9-5. And would the bumper from an 02 9-5 bolt up to my 99 beucase id like to do a conversion.

im 22 and i belong to a subaru club myself too, and the guys always laugh at how slow i drive (2 under the speed limit) but are always surprised when i open up racing the canyons and im side by side their STIs. they always ask why i drive so slow.... 10 min later 3 of them have tickets for street racing, but not the "dad" in the saab wagon. hahaha if i get pulled over for street racing ill just give the officer a innocent look and tell him im a teacher and street racing is for civics. haha

if you saw the civic scene here youd be ashamed to be associated with it. my friend bought a brand new Si went to a civic meet then next day traded his car in and bought a WRX. Nuff Said

Well the bigger the bowl(city), the more rice(civic's), and with a big bowl of rice its easy to spill it and make a mess(Meaning more retarded civic drivers racing,the more accidents and **** happening)
Ya but when heads turn to the riced cars, its because they are laughing at it. I dont know what you mean about all this "respect", sounds like a line from some movie based in the ghetto.. but whatever, I dont have respect for cars that are noisey and look like they are covered in makeup. If your passionate about cars you make it look classy, elegant, and professional, then but FIRST beef up its performance, you dont make it look like a clown. Chrome wheels ONLY look good on black or white cars, everything else should stick to shades of gunmetal, k thanks

Thats what iam doing. And when i order wheels ill be getting black with a polished lip. Maybe i used the wrong word..i mean appreciate the cars and give them more attention because they are more high class and unique cars with insane power gains. Im not really worried about power becuase when i do stage 3,i plan on demolishing my friends built d16 del sol and this guys nsx(he owns a local napa store and has money) then when both of them are left behind, everyone will give their attention to me.
Tbh mate, they can lair you all they want, but at the end of the day I get that from people I know until I wave goodbye at 50. Long and short of it is, get them out on a road, and the smiles soon fade as they become intimately familiar with the rear of your car. I'm only packing 200bhp stock 9000 FPT at the moment, but not for much longer, so should have the BMW330i's looking a bit worried, let alone Civics with exhausts I can fit my head into.
