Originally "Boy racer" was the name of the AJS 7R, the 1951 to 1962 350-cc racing motorcycle produced by Associated Motorcycles. It was so called because of its perceived affordability in contrast to the contemporary 350 Manx Norton.
Boy racer is now a New Zealand, British and Irish colloquial term for a person, usually a male in his late teens or early twenties, who drives his car in an intimidating or dangerous way for fun. Their cars are most often regular models customized with spoilers, wide tires, flared fenders and go-faster stripes. Cars driven by boy racers are often small, and it's not uncommon that they are "all show and no go", in that the cars are not the highest performance model in the range or would not be considered competitive against "genuine" sports cars. Limited funds, young age and inexperience at driving are reasons why a person might prefer to buy a base level, 1-litre Peugeot 106 and equip it with a bodykit and sports exhaust rather than simply buying a harder to find and much more expensive to insure 106 GTI.
