I use to get alot of people trying to race my EB but now that i have the EF nobody wants to race... weird i guess maybe because its not as loud or something maybe they don't think its fast. Maybe the sticker should come off...

Commodores go well enough. Who cares if they want to line up. Either blow them away, or just drive off normally.

Haha I did that to my mate in his VN, I was revving, he was revving, light went green, he took off like a bullet while I just took off normally! It's funny as because it makes them look like an idiot!
