by the time we go to about 85mph

it was late at night and the road was very clear, no other cars could be seen ahead of us (just sayin)

I have a new window sticker for you...

On the road against each other, there isn't that much difference from one car to the next. The main difference is in DRIVING them! Many a time have i had small races on the roads with other cars, that on paper, i would have demolished, but i only gently get away from.(this being on the scoob with 330brake) I couldn't care less anymore tbh. It's not about the winning, it's about the FEEL of the acceleration, because no matter how fast your car is, there's always someone else with a faster car and you just never know who it is!

B)

totally agree fella, there are always bigger fish out there!!!!!!!

just dont like people trying to bully peeps into racing. normally corsa's, clios and punto's..........why bother.

:thumbsup: baz

His bro's got a Tpot and he's the one with the technical knowledge - he came up with a very cheap cold-induction kit made from bits and bobs.

Fidg, you really a bit too hostile. This is the third time you've opened up on somebody based on your own assumptions!

To be honest... I have to agree with the others here.. its not big and its not clever... I dont know the technical ins and outs of the clio vs. the tsport... but i do know that idiots who like to race are a big cause of accidents around here... (and one of my bro's friends just totalled his car due to a race that went wrong)

We all -know- the TSport is a good car for what it is... this is a Toyota Forum... we talk about Toyotas.. and this particular bit is about Yaris'... so blatently we are gonna know what our cars can and cant do from experience... we dont need it shoved down our throats with silly 'race' threads. (I use the term 'our' loosely as we dont all own TSports here but some do)

If you wanted to praise the little car there are a lot better ways of doing it than posting about a supposed race between two cars... if you want proof of one over the other go to a sodding track... that way you actually -know- that the other person is giving their all and definately out for proof.

I also picked up on the change from 'my bro' to 'myself' whilst reading this... but it is easy to switch to telling stories from first person..so I cant comment on that. But everyone is entitled to their own opinions.. even Fidge... thats why we post on here... to talk to people... get opinions.

If your bro is happy with his TSport then bully for him... thats great its a nice little car with a bit of 'get up n go' ... but racing (as stated) on public roads is indeed illegal... dont broadcast your criminal ways here ;)

Its posts like this that keep cropping up that make me wonder where the police are when things like this happen... one day someone is gonna get seriously hurt on here due to a 'race' and it wont be pretty.....

Sorry guys... but if you want to race.. get on a track :yes:

I see some people have there Halo's on today :rolleyes::rolleyes:

If you never go over 70mph then you should be driving a 998cc mini :thumbsup:

Everyone get's flamed for racing/speeding and yes racing another car is stupid do it on a track or on a 1/4 mile. IT"S NOT BIG AND IT"S NOT SMART <_<

But I wonder how many people here go over 70mph on a daliy basis on a motorway? Remember he who casts the first stone and all that stuff :P :P

What is the deal? Does no one here creep over 70mph? It was a dual carridgway and NOT a single lane road. Its just like putting your foot down on a slip road to join a motorway.

I would hardly call it racing.

Lighten up peeps. If it was a race around town at a 30mph speed limit, in a pedestrianized area, then I'd agree.

infact i like todo nothing more than speed down the M1 at 150mph and then when i finally get into my home village I wait till 4pm and then go speeding at around 120mph past as many public schools as possible. All in the name of fun!

yeah everyone speeds from time to time, but to boast about it and boast about having a race on a public road is just pathetic <_<

Like I said, everyone speeds yeah, but not everyone comes on here and boasts do they? Anyone that thinks its cool to speed and cool to boast on a public forum about it deserves what comes to them in my opinion :yes:

I wouldnt say I boast, I just like driving in dangerous circumstances .. its gotta be worth it, a few innocent bystanders outside schools in return for some wicked fun racing knowing you are putting others at risk ... i dont see the problem myself, as long as I dont get hurt of course!

wouldnt u agree ?
