I have found that since I have acquired the beast I end up in allot of races. Not allot of off the line stuff but plenty off high speed races. Knock on wood I haven’t lost yet. A couple of my good buddy love to race. They drive Jetta's and Honda's.
In my group of friends I'm currently the fastest and have the most horse power. Racing with my buddies is just for fun. They don't even have a chance. I've always driven pretty fast cars but have never really raced allot. My buddies tell me that after beating someone you are supposed to put on your flashers. I have never done this, yet. I guess the reason for it is to say "I've beaten you but I will give you a chance to race me again if you think it was an unfair race". Is this a Volkswagen and Honda thing or do some of you other beast owners out there do this?
