What to say when you loss a race.

i figured since i've only raced once, and i lost. i started coming up with some excuses. feel free to use them, comment on them, or improve on them, or make up new ones to the list. enjoy!


  • i'm running rich
  • i smoked'em in first, second and third
  • i was granny shifting
  • HE HAD NOS!
  • his wing obviously gave him an advantage
  • my VW Beetle tires were made by Firestone and fell apart
  • my tranny dropped
  • hear that whining noise? that means my car broke
  • the horse on the back windshield added too much weight
  • i missed 2nd gear
  • i wasn't watching the light
  • i forgot to shift
  • i was shifting at 2 grand
  • i topped out at 70
  • he was double clutching and stuff
  • my car was so powerful, it snapped the axles
  • his cars bodywork was ****ing with the wind aerodynamics of my car, there was no way i could catch up
  • my engine blew up, the smoke is invisable, honset.
  • i was too busy getting a hummer
  • there was this sucky song on the radio and it messed with my groove
  • i was getting something out of my toenail
  • my laptop was in the passenger seat, and I GOT MAIL! so i was distracted
  • it's a show car baby, not a go car
  • my parking brake was on
  • i forgot to turn off my A/C
  • i saw a cop! honest!
  • my girlfriend was weighing down my car
  • there's junk in my trunk... too much weight
  • everytime i revved my engine, my volt meter would go up and i got mesmerized by it
  • my foot slipped off the gas pedal
  • it was in neutral


what other people have come up with

  • my car is freaking slow
  • trash can for an engine
  • i ran outa gas
  • i didnt feel like trying
  • But you have more cylinders
  • My car is FWD therefore slower by default
  • A chipmunk ran out into the road so I slowed down
  • I wasnt filled up with race gas (excuse works best with NA cars)
  • My car used less gas in the race than yours did
  • You are faster straight line but I bet I can out-handle your car (works great if your suspension is still stock)
  • It was too dark outside and I forgot to take my sunglasses off so I couldnt see well
  • I was trying to eat pork rinds while driving and got crumbs on the shifter
  • My other car's a Viper
  • My friend would beat you
  • I haven't broken in my tires yet
  • I don't have performance tires
  • I was too busy talking on my cellphone
  • Oh, you mean we were racing? Pfft....no wonder you think you beat me


then for all you good sports out there, this this one

how about be a good sport, and just say, nice race man, what you got done to your ride, then shoot the shit with him, if i win and some one does that, i usally make a new buddy, that how i meet a few of my good freinds...
