Cruised through town for anout an hour and was on my way home when I saw what I thought was a shitty Civic w/ blue washer lights. I decided no action fuck with it! Get up nect to it and it's a WRX! Looked at him and we rolled through the light and punched almost same time I just walked away from him. 1/2 mile up road here he comes again. This time he drops gears and we are off I walked away again! About a 1/2 mile here he comes for more this time I wanted to ruin his night dropped my gear down into second and floored it and really walked away flashers flashing and my buddy with his hand out the window waving peace at him! Then about an hour later a 94-95 GT 5.0 Mustang had stickers and exghuast. Pulled up next to him at a light and he didn't race so I figured he didn't know so a little demonstartion was needed. Provided demonstartion and he took notice he pulled up next to me dropped into 1st and he floored it when his rear bumber got to my front bumber I floored it and walked right past him flashers blazing! I tried to get him to race again and no go just turned away! All the other fast cars intown by now are sitting in Parking lots just watching me drive up and down the street! I turned down a 2002 corvette race as he wanted to race for $100.00 and I didn't have any cash. Anyway good night for the Ty.
Two races to wins I was king of the road last night. (long)

imho the flashers tell you, the person losing, and all the people watching who's ass was owned. and when you blinker and then get in front of them, that is even far worse.

The flasher deal was popular in Japan, back in the day. Street racing over there in the mid-80's wasnt restricted to straight roads, so some would use the flashers to warn the guy behind you that the race was done, so he didnt confuse your slowing as a sign he was winning and attempt to pass you, or etc....
Some folks over there used flashers to start the race too. Not needed for a drag race, but if a Skyline rolled up on you while you were driving down a mountain road, the flashers usually meant, get over or go faster. I had a Skyline and was hooked by a Toyota Starlet. It came flyin up on me flashers a winkin so I flashed mine once and we were off. Turns out it was one fast Starlet....
The flasher deal here in the good ol US is just one more thing that would draw a cops attention, and be kinda hard to explain if one pulled you over at the local street race joint.
