Besides the usual 1990s era Hondas, Mini-Vans, Dodge Rams....I had a guy in a black VW Beetle "Turbo" try and egg me on at a red light, I didn't even waste my time.

The 73 will weigh 3,000 when done, just need to get the drivetrain right and it will be a fair fight. Hard to deny how fast they are but I still hate them.

I get guys in Altima's wanting to race all the time. Not sure what that is about but so far i'd say most entertaining is the guys in the Prius's. Why do they feel the need!!! Did they watch the 918 hybrid test and suddenly think they're Prius was fast. Honestly this happens more than any other car. Even Mustang owners aren't as irritating.

You are my hero...same thing happens to me on the regular. It's like these people think they are gonna beat us.

I dont ever get raced when i'm out in my car. I always communicate to them to pull to the side of the road. Then we go online together and after coordinating with our calendars, we find a track with an open race day and then we both buy passes. Then we shake hands and proceed about our day at the posted speed limits after signalling to get back on the road.

I mean, that's what i always do because i'm responsible.

But hysterical none the less. Had a guy in an S2000 that was being a real prick one night. He finally got next to me at a light and actually ask me if I wanted to race. I asked if he wanted me to wait while he went home and got his car as his wife would like him racing hers.....

Nissan drivers are normally asshats, period.

An appliance delivery truck revved at me and punched it at a green light. I let him down easy... not too easy.

TunaMelt · 08-02-2017, 10:28 PM

An ecoboost Ford F-150. it didn't try me. It spanked me when I tried to catch him. That thing was fast.

Best story of the whole thread! Thanks for sharing that one.

I get the lowered civics with fart cans on them egging me on more than anything.

Every once in a while you'll come across one that has a turbo and they'll give you a run for your money.

Everybody else seems to be a collective bag of dicks.

hahshshshshshahshshshhahahahahahaha
