Instead of flashing hazards at end of race, hows this...?

I was thinking of mounting one of those electric LED signs on the top part or bottom part of my rear window and using it as a 3rd/4th brake light as well as conveying messages when necessary like "YOU LOST TO A SEDAN" or "STOP RIDING MY @$$" or "IF YOU YOU CAN READ THIS BACK OFF"... I have yet to see this done on somebody's car and I'm sure people would get a kick outta seeing it.

Exactly what I was thinking. If you put one of those on your car, you'll end up with a rear window full of bullet holes from a sore loser.

Oh man, don't do that. People will get real ****ed. They are already ****ed that they lost, and you will **** them off even more. You never know what people will do.

yeah, one time my friend raced some random guy in a civic and beat him real bad. at the light, the guy got out of the car and went to the trunk to pull out something. my friend thought he was getting a gun, but he ended up pulling out a screwdriver. (wtf?) my friend was like "chill, it's just a race. you can stab me but don't scratch my car or i'll beat your ***." then the light turned green and he left him standing in the road. he looked like he was still in high school. we had a good laugh about that one.

Maybe it was the Pac-Man sticker. Matt gave me one of the Pac-Man sticker you sent to him. I'm going to put in on and **** off the Honda guys at my school, which are everywhere. hehe...

do this:

after you're ahead by a couple car lenghts, pull the e-brake and do a 180. Flash your headlights and him, and then swing 180 degrees again, and go on your way. it probably takes some practice.

I'm kind of hesitant to put the pac-man sticker on my car because of all the Hondas at my school. That's just asking for it don't you think? I know there are a few of them that just need an excuse to mess with my car. Guess the Vortech stickers will have to do.
