318is coupe VS stock civic hatch

[///M cubed]

I was driving down a fairly long straight road in my hometown, Noosa, when this little punk in a resprayed and bodykitted (stock engine) civic pulls up next to me, revving his ring out in 2nd. We were only doing about 20km/h because the road is full of 2 metre (about 6.5') speed bumps/pedestrian crossings every 30 meters or so.
I wasn't out for a race, but he pulled next to me and wound his window down, and as we went over the next speed bump he gunned it. I was expecting it and I had my hand on the shifter, so I slammed it into 1st and gunned it also.
It had been raining earlier, and I overtook the poor kid while I was still in Wheelspin :P
An obvious victory, but I was the real loser when the cops pulled out of an alleyway that we just raced past.
They let him go but followed me around for about 5 minutes, then on come the lights. [packin]
I pulled over and they pulled up next to me, parked on the road. He wound his window down and said, "We're watching you boy, we clocked you at 160 in a 60 zone last night, just know that you're blacklisted. Besides, with 2 jetski's and fuckin hot car you should be shaggin your arse off at the moment. Go home and terrorise your woman :bed: instead of my STREETS!"
:wtf:
with that he did up his window and pulled off.
Me and my buddy were speachless. We couldn't stop laughing even though i just found out i was blacklisted.

:MD:
>> I saw the same cop that pulled me over in McDonalds today, haha.
"you still thrashing the tits off your beamer, son?" :rant2:
"No sir, NNEEEVVVERRRR!" :naughty:

Haha, just thought that was a funny addition to the original post.

So what exactly does it mean when you are "blacklisted"?

down shifted too first haha wow. First gear is only for launching. Good race though. I am not a fan of the 318 though, but I loath civics.

Means the cops are watching you, and you are on their list of people they can totally fuck over when they are having a bad day. Most cities have some sort of "black list" of the worst drivers in the city, the cops usually just sit and wait for them to fuck up, follow them around alot etc...

20km/h is 12.5m/h, would you be willing to use first at such a low speed if it meant victory?
It was strange that I was even out of first at that speed. First redlines at 65km/h, so I was well within limits.

I don't really like 318 either, that's why a bought a 318is. 110 extra cc and an extra cam than the standard 318. Makes it a much better engine for modification. Not only that, in stock form it EASILY pulls a CA18DE, the nissan equvelant. It will even take an RB25 off the mark. But like has been said so many times in this forum and others, it's not horsepower that drives a car, its the driver.

in that case i must be "blacklisted" i had a cop follow me for like 5 miles, then pull me over for "driving a suspicious car" i said, wouldn't this fall under profiling? he told me that he could pull any car he wants, he asked to search the car, i said "well, the trunk and glovebox are locked, so have fun in the backseat, he go's "well i can see your in a bad mood, have a nice day sir and walked away.

stupid fucking pigs.

Haha, yeah, it's bullshit how cops do that.

I was in one of my mates cars and a cop pulled up next to us, telling us that we were acting suspiciously, when we were just stopped on the side of the road so I could show him an old motocross track I built with another mate.
The cops proceeded to search the car, emptying it out on the side of the road. They read every scrunched up piece of paper in the car, tipped out his sister's school bag, took out the spare tyre and conducted personal searches on both of us. It was bullshit, they had no reason to do it. Not only that, they left us to clean up the mess at 9.30 at night.

*** I found out that I'm no longer on the black list! (for my town, anyway)***
