Do you have any friends that when they sit in your ride you like to give them a bit of a scare?


I have one mate who when I first passed my test and got a car seemed very nervous with me behind the wheel. Comments like slow down a bit Jay - My reply: we're doing 70mph... on a moterway dude.

Anyway I gave him a lift the other day so I thought i'd scare him just a tiny bit by sliding the back end out round a corner. Big mistake as he pulled part of the plastic apart on my door card :( Mind you i'd never seen knuckles go white like a camera flash before.

I used to scare people i gave a lift home to, in the hope they would not want a lift anymore it didnt work. :D
 
I tried scaring my ex on a spirited run the first time I took her out in my car.

She loved it!

Hey at least you won't have to give him a lift in the future. ;)

I tend to drive a bit slower with others in the car, depends what mood I'm in. Can't really scare them though, only scaring you could do in a 1.6 focus is aiming for another car! :eek:
 
Those who had a ride with me at MM3 mighty have got a bit of a scare. Its a fine line between doing it safe and over doing it and messing it up big time.

I didn't dare Mr Mike, Paul had no fear in his CTR and Man that RS was quick :)
 
It happens all the time - but I never do it intentionally. Apparently I brake very late and I'm "crazy". This comes from two people in particular, colleagues, both brothers, and both have been involved in several accidents that were their fault, completely writing off cars in the process :confused:

The funny thing is that my mum has never told me to slow down in the seven years I've been driving, and some times I try to test her by driving a little faster than I think she'd like but she never says a word!
 
I did a few times with a girl I briefly went out with, my old car was very deceptive as it would understeer like mad giving loads of tyre squeal but still keeping things pretty safe (and slow!) A few years later she took me out in her car and proper scared me :(

Also when I was a yooby 'yoof' i'd see people I knew and if there was no one else round I'd pull up with a big tug on the hand brake locking the back wheels up, luckily i've grown up a bit since then!
 
Ive had a friend squirl like a little girl :p
I under estermated an S bend that went down the up a rise on a graver road and i had the car sideways around the whole thing :D

Does anyone else get tingly balls when they get close to the edge or is that just me :p
I swear they retract in some cases :p
 
I drive like a Saint when I have passengers - my opinion is that when there are people in your car, you are responsible for their safety. Most of them won't appreciate wild antics anyway.

If I want to drive like I've just stolen my car and have a great time, I do it when its just me in the car. That way, if I make a mistake or overcook it, it's only me who is affected, not a friend of mine who only wanted a lift.
