At first I thought you ran into a typical Nissan owner, those guys always want to run... But then I re-read things and realized you revved at him, later, after the first time you saw him.

Let me get this straight, you revved at the guy, then wondered why he blew by you at a relatively tame rate of speed expecting a race? Apparently you haven't spent very much time around people who street race, revving usually means you want to run, he was calling you out when you saw him the first time.

You got lucky all he did was drive by and keep going, IMO...

I like the 350z a lot and when they first came out i wanted one.. thing looks mean, aggressive, and is somewhat affordable. then the Camaro came along and dropped a deuce on them. don't really like the 370's as much.. still a nice car.

the way it reads, the 350z isn't the one that came out and blew past him. I do agree that the rev is what probably caused that event. some guy on the street happens to hear him rev and decides to fly by.

idk about that, but letting someone know they don't have lights is for safety. not only for those that are running dark, but for other drivers as well.

That's just an urban myth folks.

Oh no it's not, I only brought it up because it happened to me. Good thing those moron's can't drive in their low riders. They ended up wrapped around a telephone pole while chasing me.
