At a red light do you try to start up faster than the other cars?

at a red traffic light does it go through your mind to start faster than the cars around you?

Duh, follow the road rules, reactions count.

Obviously. I smoke hyundai accents and ford focuses all day.

The trick is to peep over the opposite light until is yellow.

no, that seems like a really petty thing to do.

No I don't. I get up to speed as slow as possible to get maximum mileage.

I hate it when Im behind someone who accelerate so slowly back to the speed limit. It would take them 15-20 seconds while it I will do it in half that time.

Generally I just go without any concern to someone next to me who think hitting the gas at the floor every time is the way to do it.

All the time. If I beat them I'm better than them. They don't know it, but I am.

[QUOTE="Fightingfan"] That's what I do in my father's dodge ram(12mpg).Bikouchu35

Yes and when I beat them, at the next stop light their wives or girlfriends usually get out of their car and make love to me for winning.

*Dodge Ram is Americans largest gas guzzler(automatic).

Sometimes, it really depends on the situation.

Used to, now I try to go out slower! Its a more entertaining game and its better on gas.

i want to win at every red light but then at the next one they stare at you

Most of the time I don't. But there's a hill near my house at home, with a stop light on top, and 100 feet after the stoplight the road narrows from 2 lanes to one. Basically, its always a race to be first when the lanes merge. I drive a manual, and I'm very good at starting on a hill. :cool:
