Alright well today I thought I almost lost my mind. First I am coming home from school and I see a mid 50's caucasian lady driving a CW R with no wing. I thought it was pretty weird, but went on my way.

I get closer to home and I see a mid 50's chinese lady driving a lowered CW......WTF???

The last time I saw this there was a mid 30's caucasian lady driving a black R.

My question is who the hell would let their Mom drive their R??

I know for sure I wouldn't even let my mom go near it. My dad....maybe, but my mom?

Gosh you guys must have *****, or not care about your cars. I can just imagine my mom trying to drive it and accidentally peeling it out, over-revving, etc.

I don't know how you guys do it.


<----Rambling after about two hours of smelling solder fumes

 

I let mine drive it once or twice. She's driven stick her entire life, I wasn't overly concerned. It is still only an Integra. Now post modifications, that might be a different story .

 

That's what I'm saying though. With a modified R I can't see anyone's mom going down the street without getting revved on, or messed with.

I know what you mean, but I meant because of increased compression, lightened flywheel, different gearing, etc. You can't tell I'm modified from appearance, unless you can spot the difference between a stock and SMS exhaust tip that is.

 

i saw a wingless cw are with an older lady driving yesterday too.

 

My mom drove my car, she said it was too loud and bumpy.

sack-waiting for mike to say somthing about my mom

 

I've let my mom drive my itr before... Bastard ran a better quarter mile than me...
You have to consider this... My mom is now 49yrs young and she's raced cars before.She owns an S2000, 04 clk55 and 02 s55...She's the one that taught my brother, sister and me how to drive stick back home.

I have no worries on my mom driving my car. Ran me on the S2000 and certainly got my *** handed to my by my own mom that's for sure.

There is this lady in tampa though that is about 50 or so and she drives a fbp itr. Kind of funny seeing her drive it but never had the chance to see what she can do to that car

 

NO OLD people drive R, period! Especially MOM or DADs!

 

I guess you just had to be there for the second lady. I'm not talking about a hip mom here that can dust people. She looked frail and dainty. Drove extremely too close for a steering wheel with an airbag. The car jerked as she shifted. I could not help but stare and wonder.

ArghhHHhh......some mom has a CW and I got friggin black!!!

 

I know old people can drive R's....they are not that much different than other cars. But I really don't know anyone that old that would choose to drive a car that is as non-luxurious as an R.

When my mom sits in it, all she does is complain and hold on to the oh **** bar.

It's just different to see an old chinese lady driving an R, when normally I see old Chinese ladies driving benz's and bmw's around here.

 

i bought my R from a 30+ woman. stock

 

there's a 40+ guy with a PY in O-town somewhere.... I let my dad D drive my car all the time

I don't think George is 50+ yet. I think he's 48, but I could be wrong!

I hope to be OLD and a DAD...and still drive my R...

&lt;--who is 22...and not old or a dad

 

probably some younginz parents who bought and own the car....

 

While I was up at Auburn I left the R at home for a while. One day I got a call from the parents and heard the strangely familiar sound of VTEC engaging. Apparently they had decided to take it for a spin and my step dad had instantly re-discovered his teenage years at the 5,700rpm point. My mom was telling me how much fun he was having. I could tell he wasn't taking it up all the way and I said if he was going to do it that he should do it right and rip it to redline.

The first time my mom ever drove my car she blasted it straight to 120mph.

Soon after one of my speeding tickets my mom drove the R to work. On the way home she was pulled over for doing over 100mph. Her excuse to me "I was just passing somebody and I didn't know I was going that fast" , good one mom, try again.

In general though my mom hated driving the car on long trips (work for her is 60mi away).

 

its not like its much different than driving any other manual. i let my mom drive my old turbo si. no prob. her daily drive is an s2k with comptech carbon fiber intake and the comptech header. she loves it hehe and shes almost 52.

 

lol my mom always wants to drive my r but she cant drive 5 speed thank god. i had my r for jus over 2 months and my mom hasnt been in it since the day i bought it so her driving it is a different story.

 

OMG you mean the type-r isnt a full race car for purebred enthusiasts, it's just an integra ? wow

 

here's the big question: i bet when you guys have kids you'll be driving the R still or even if they buy an R you will be driving it. So anticiapting the future, I'll say its alright for OLDER people to drive R's...

heheh just covering my ***!!!

 

both my parents have driven my R.

my mom is a very safe driver.

as for my dad, there is no doubt that he is more qualified to drive that car than i am. to dads that can drive the wheels off ANY car.

Mom can drive #442 whenever she wants

 

EP's mom driving my 234 on the track (3/02)

 

my mom had a 'stang at my age (white with red interior, ironically) and taught my bro and i to drive 5spd... her only request when i brought an arrh home was that she could go for a boot in it. she can take her out any day!

i hope to have mine long enough that i can put baby seats in the back.. bwahaha. i will be those moms one day!!!
