boy racers / cruisers and street racers are different things mate, and they hate people stereo typing them as boy racers

in my opinion a boyracer is a nob that only gets **** from halfrauds and rags it round town but the car looks **** and couldnt beat a coffin dodgers car

me mate was gunna sell his escort rst and get a bike mainly made from carbon fibre, but decided against it in the end like, menna be a mint bike though

In the States street racing is common.
Lots of people die from this. They usually are really young guys.
Usually they either get out of control or run red lights and centerpunch some innocent victom.
The news is first to report this in the headlines. With full pics of graphics too.

yeah im in miltonkeynes quite a bit of street racing up here now tho! definately good fun and cheaper than a track day lol

the difference between boy racers and street racers:

boy racers hammer it twice as fast as they or there car and there burberry hats can handle
in the day when theres public about!

street racers go to quiet locations or private roads and close the roads down if they can or at tleast stop when you see publics cars on the road

the golden rules is take your own life in your hands by all means thats werte the adrenalin comes from but never risk anyone elses

if 2 of you are racing and you crash tuff **** you made the choice you had your fun pay the price but if you hit an innocent driver then you should pay for that all yourlife!!

thats just what i go by i see no point in trying 2 save my pride beating a saxo off the lights if it means killing some one

p.s cars a 1.25 16 fiesta zetec full race tune 118bhp thinking bout van aken turbo conversion

I have to laugh at most of the kids in my area, they seem to spend all their spare cash "max powering" their civic/nova/corsa/punto/saxo and seem to forget about the engine. I Was following a fully kitted saxo and a civic last night and i could tell from their exhaust note (4 big tail pipes and a straight thru exhaust) that their cars had next to no power. But, they had massive bodykits, 18" wheels etc...

Anyway, we came to a straight and these guys were trying to race each other, so i just pulled out and left them both for dead... in my gf`s 1litre nissan micra!!!! HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAA!

In the days when id be into modifying cars, id spend all my cash on making the car go quicker, but keep it standard. No point in having a car looking like it can do 200mph when it can barely do 60!

they think they're so cool with their "maxed" saxo vtr's (no vts's), corsa's, nova's, etc. wearing their little caps. They are the skinny guys with caps on the right way round driving around in 1st or 2nd gear around town. All show, no go!! I'd rather keep the styling subtle yet sporty and do up the engine department.

What gets me is when they dont even bother sorting the suspension out. So you end up with a saxo, vetec fiesta or 306 with massive alloys, lexus rear lights (cos they dont look tacky now at all!), but when they accelerate, the whole car rocks back and forth like a see-saw. I guess it gives the driver a sense of being "thrown back in their seat" with the acceleration, but for completely the wrong reasons. It looks rediculous. Then, when they park up, their car look just like a 4x4 as the suspension is just the standard shocks/springs.

Usually a pair of lowered springs is only about 40quid, so why the hell cant they just fit them, rather than waste 100quid on a pair of crappy back lights? Would make the car look miles better and handle better.

kids eh?!

i wouldnt say im either, ive got too much respect for my car to abuse it into a hedge (bollards are a differant matter).

but i do like to teach the boy racers some manners, you should respect an impreza. simple as, lol

and yeah i used to love modding.

my last car was a saxo VTR. magnex zorst+de-cat,green induction FSE boost valve, glitterball windows

now got a scooby turbo, standard except k&n induction and 14psi boost
