Hmmm.... how do you rev your engines safely (to scare the 'yutes') when you're driving an automatic?Tough times never last longer than tough people.0

I'd just drive straight at them. Once your close enough that they realise you wouldn't be able to stop even if you wanted to, they'll soon get out the way.0

And it was all to impress girls.0 -

That is very interesting, you can only sound your horn whilst moving. So what happens at traffic lights when you are stationary, the lights have turned green, and the car in front does not move, because they are not concentrating/doing something else?0 -
I find that dipping clutch and revving up- there's a nice roar off my car usually does the trick. If not, the horn does- I put a new one in and it's extremely loud.

Not really a problem in my area, thankfully, but found that driving at them helped.0 -

It may or may not be inaccurate, it's the spin.0
