I got my impounded when i was racing my roommate. he got hs impouned to. 400 bucks to get it out.

 

lol, you were racing....in the xb???

I know every one is gonna say "street racing-bad!" but come-on, in the xb?!?!?!

hope you can get it out soon

 

have you learned your lesson?

 

it was back in may. i got it out the next day. i had to go to a class to get one of the tickets droped. all together $582 in fines.

 

Racing? In an xB? On the street? How did the police know?

More seriously, hope you learned from that one, Chris.

(The only racing I do in my xB is in the driveway against the gardener in his golf cart... He usually wins...)

yah... no racing man. we don't want to see you in the news because you rolled the car doing 75.
its not worth it.
find a local track that has open night and get a helmet.
you can race all day or night on a closed track for like $15

 

 

This is only good if you won against a 2nd Gen.. tsk tsk..

 

not to insult anyone.. but anything you need for a race car (like aerodynamics, high revv or boosted engine, sport suspension, etc.), our xB doesn't have that. so why even bother?

people need to learn how things work, and then maybe we can come to our senses. our cars are great gas mileage car that's why it has a small displacement engine.

 

 

I don't know what you guys are talking about you can race anything that moves, little kids on playgrounds that run 5 mph race, old people in there hoverrounds race, and yes powerful cars race and thats what most people think you "need" to race but they're wrong as long as the thing your are racing is of comparable speed it can be enjoyable. you people need to get your heads on straight.

 

...children

 

i agree the anything can be raced as long as what you are racing isof comparable performance.
im only pointing out how dangerous it is to yourself and innocent others.
now on a closed track...... that a different story. everyone is a willing participent and they have medical people waiting.
besides $15 entry fee is cheeper then $500 in fines.

 

X2 ! The thread title was just too interesting to pass up.
Did you atleast WIN? I can't believe I actually asked tho.

 

Were you racing in a straight line (ie. drag racing) or road racing? Both should be reserved for the track. I think the xB is a better performer when racing a road course track.

 

Yea, dude, think of all the cool stuff you coulda bought for the car with $580.

Don't street race.

Especially not in an xB.

Gah!

 

People like you make it hard for everyone else to have affordable insurance. Race at the track next time...

 

 

That is almost another set of wheels/tires. Or springs/exhaust/and intake. Or 579 Wendys Jr Bacon Cheeseburgers. That's crazy

 

I think what's more amusing is the fact that I'm willing to bet the car is bone stock.

It's not like he added a bunch of parts and wanted to test it out (not that it justifies racing) but instead, he took one of the slower cars on the market and raced it...
