Ahh yes, the family minivan

So I'm driving my girlfriend home around 10 or so.... I have my neon on so I was kinda sking for it but anyway... This Dodge caravan pulls up and rev's its engine.... Now at that point i just laugh my *** off... the window rolls down and this 16 year old sophomore (dont know him, but saw his school parking pass, thats how i know he was a soph) starts cussing me out... So i just yell abck "Cussing infront of the little soccer players isnt very respectful." Now it took him a sec to understand what it meant but then he got it and put his VAN back in to Neutral and started reving liek mad.... So I just Rev back at him once... he tehn keeps the RPM around 4.5 and hte light tunrs green... he drops int o drive and squeels the tires and "takes off"... So I laugh and said "why the hell not...." around 55 (he ahd a good 3 second head start) I pass the van and give him a nice little rev as I pass.... and off I go in to the wild blue yonder

Well, everyone knows that a DC van is a piece of sh*t. Mazda makes a nice van with a 200hp 3.0 liter Duratec engine - my wife can take my 1G Pro with it anyday of the week !

I hear ya about the MPV. My parents bought an 03 LX and that thing can move. I try to "borrow" it whenever I can just for the fun of riding a Civic's *** with a minivan.

wtf dropping it into drive from neutral

that retard is trying to destroy his van isnt he??

for a fast launch on autos you're supposed to just rev it up to like 2k for a brief period but not too long or you'll burn up the torque converter
