A sound used when imitating the sound of an off road vehicle engine, especially snowmobiles and dirt bikes. Used most commonly by residents of the town of Newburgh.
A crowd of people gathered around Johnny C as he described his latest snowmobiling adventure. "...and I was like braap braap almost hit a fuckin tree, like fuckin braaap brap brap braaaaaaap..."
Term created by dirtbike riders, and motocrorss riders. Often said when everyone would go riding...when riding bicycles, lifting something up, pushing carts...even walking or running. The term grew on and moved to snowmobilers too. BRAAP comes from the noise the two stroke engine produces. Quad riders can use the saying too.
When Jim and Mike were walking down the sidewalk, Jim said "BRAAP!" then sped up and walked faster, pretending he was a dirtbike, or on a dirtbike.
