I stopped at the front of a line of traffic yesterday at some roadworks and found myself next to a very clean and nice looking Renault 5 GT Turbo with 2 guys and a chick on board, the drivers window was down and i complemented him on how rare the little hatchbacks are now becoming.
The driver of the car said "Yeh, they are rare now, especially ones like this, its chipped and has never been beaten by anything!"
I saw this as an opportunity to ruin his day completely by saying to him "Well, its been beaten now, don't waste your fuel trying just take this as the worlds easiest and quickest defeat hahahaha"
The driver of the Renault Turbo laughed and said that NO bike had ever won and i wasn't gonna rub his nose in it, certainly not on an old mans bike Mr. Green
I set off very steady and snicked it into 2nd, the Renault was snapping at my heals until Twisted Evil i give it the works!!!!!!
To say i left it trailing was an understatement and at the next set of lights he pulled alongside me and was laughing so much i thought he was gonna piss himself........ He said " Fookin hell mate i'm getting rid of this and having one of them things, thats rapid man". I mooched off with a silly pre pubescent style grin on my face having notched up yet another victory for the old 'XX' this time in HotHatch TURDBO territory.

Well today in ChaVham, theres 3 sets of lights. I pulled up at the first lights just as they were going from amber to green so I just backed off the throttle so that I wasnt "Jumping" the lights.
As I was slowing down waiting for the green, a little Fiesta with a Loud exhaust and 2 ugly little spotty chavs sat in it zoomed past me. At the next set of reds, the passenger spat out the window. Not at me, but on the floor next to me. then the driver looked at me and revved his pile of shit up...

The lights went amber and I pinned my scooter and burnt him off.
I could hear him booting the shit out of his 1.1 fiesta and getting nowhere! Laughing

Hahahahahaha!

Spotty little burbery wearing c**ts!

I like the way the Renault 5 driver was like "NO bike has ever beaten it" Laughing

Surely even a CBR6 would beat any car? Confused

I had a 205 Gti on my tail the other day down the Tweasledown bends. I can hit 90 down there usually so naturally i was pretty impressed. Cars usually can corner alot better/faster because of the fat wheels. On the straights, no chance. Twisted Evil

Well played Johnny. I can never back down from a traffic light GP.

Had one of those MG rover, tarty things try it on while I was 2up yesterday. It was very very close, but I was just quicker.

My favourite game is just sitting next to them, one hand on the bars, other feining a yawn. Then you drop a cog, and off you go.

Obviously that'd be more dramatic on a blackbird than a restricted XJ600!

I had my very first little tiff at the lights today, bloke in a bmw z3 with its roof down came up quickly on other side, and there was a car on his lane, parked up. I could have easily blown him away but noticed the pedestrians further up the road so let him burn it off. Nearly knocked them down to.. Rolling Eyes Thats proper throttle control Wink

its just not right to back down from a traffic light GP.. had one a couple of weeks ago.. Ferrari 360.. was heading down a single carriage way.. went to overtake him and he put his foot down.. up to a set of lights, and the single lane splits into 2.. he pulled up in the left lane.. and well... It would be rude not to!!! Middle Aged bald guy with a blonde bit in the passenger seat.. He's revving like shuey on the start line.. I simply snick into first.. and drop my visor.. pull away rather spiritedly (front wheel skipping off the ground!) I drop to 2nd and he's already behind me..

Cue me riding down the road laughing like a hyena into my helmet..

And thats a 100k supercar.. against my little 3.5k CBR6!

To be quite honest the R5 was a bit tricked up, i could hear a dump valve hissing away as he blipped the gass then in the mirror (before he got too small) i could see 'Samco' hoses through the grill and an external rev counter or boost gauge on the scuttle.

'KAILLUM' you mentioned the 360 Modena Mr. Green , 22 of us on Blackbirds raced one through Belguim last year, 90% of us were 2 up with luggage and we eventually passed him registering 175mph Shocked Shocked scary stuff and i think if he'd wanted to he'd have had the edge flat out. We didn't start the pursuit until over 100mph then he took the bait, stunning to see a 360 in full flight.

Lovely little cars - but not a great chassis - the last time I drove one I put it into a wall at 30 mph - took a corner a little too fast, turned the wheel and it went straight on! Shocked

coming out of London on the A10 on Sunday evening (had been down at the Ace further introducing my gf to biking..) three wnakers in a green scrotE (sorry Escort) were giving me some noise out the window.. getting their dog to bark at me, and giving me the finger and shit...

I so wanted to waste them, and did pull away sharpish, but didn't feel happy doing 60 in a 40 as it was, and I had the gf on the back at the time. so they did catch up, and keep noising us up.

Got to some traffic lights, filtererd to the front, and got thru the next set before they turned red and stopped the tw@s...

I've been VERY careful with the gf on the back, not to scare her, nor to pull away too fast and have her fall off or something Wink but when we stopped for fuel, and I commented on the tits, saying if I'd been on my own, I'd have just pissed off into the distance...

her reply was....
"why didn't you... i love the acceleration when you go fast, it's exciting"

Rolling Eyes

Next time!

I love making chav’s look like fools. Renault 5 turbo’s are quick though, I could have one easily on the VFR. Its’ all about the launches.
The 5’s are quicker off the lights then a Scooby, partially because of the over size turbo and the weight.

Following on from babyblades post when in a car would you get this txt from your missus?
“Thanks for the lift Mike, bike made me horny, wanna shag later? xx”

Um, yeah Thumbs Up

Now THAT i'd have PAID to see...

tbh I really think i'd have struggled against it with a decent driver behind the wheel especially on my old girl hauling my fat ass.. I mean the 360 is good for low 4's 0-60!! But oppurtunities like that dont come very often.. and its just so hard to say no!! even if i'd have lost.. it would have been a good fight!!

Nothing wrong with the chassis at all, infact they handle very well. I cant quite see how you could manage to put it into a wall at 30, but hay, not my problem! Wink

I've had 9 Ren 5 GT turbo's in the past 5 years and know them inside out. They wont beat a scooby off the line, well, maybe to 10mph if the scooby driver wasn't paying attention! The 5 will struggle against anything 400cc and over (or 250 2t - rgv nsr etc). But they are one hell of a fun little car to drive, and there are some fast ones out there. But you always get the chav's that think a dump valve give it more power etc.. you know when someone is talking crap straight away.
