172’s wanna race me WHY





ALright guys i doubt it was anyone on here bbut lately a load of 172s have tried racing me why i got a 1.2 16V for gods sake i dont even "rev up" they just stare at me then floor it or tail me practically touching my bumper maybe its cause i gto lexus lights etc they think i have some kinda sport smodel who knows??

any way they beter watch out cause i need a new rear bumper due to the missus reversing into a boulder and i might just touch my brakes next time!!ha ha only joking:cry:
 


Im sure its the lexus lights mate, they think you think youre a bad mutha (not that im saying you think you are!!) and so have to beat you, subtle is the way to go!

True, although I did race a bog standard 306 aswell on the motorway. I think it was an HDI or somthing.

There was no contest at all, I obliterated him.. funny bit was he came flying past at about 90mph 2 minutes later (after I slowed back down to 70mph) looking really chuffed with himself.

its because 1.2s are quicker than 172s

Try it ;)

My new wheels give me 200bhp on thier own

I heard those 1.2 (1.1) can kill most cars on the road, whenever I see one I pull over and pretend my car has broken down just so I wont be put to shame ;)

Its one of two things:

The 172 people know we have a secret weapon (ssssshhhhhh the secret power button only found on 1.2s)



Or:



They are just being gits and showing us how slow our cars are :oops:

I promise i will not race anyone. This is because I is a crap driver, and even if you were in a milkfloat with no motor, youd still beat me :)

So far I have beat: Celica 140BHP, Almera GTI, Clio cup and pulled away from BMWs with laughable ease...they give up

But I was fair and square beaten by a RS Turbo.
