I was driving the back roads around my house and I get the touristy people that leasurly drive that road for the views(I own a Z, I do it to get the high score times lol) Well anyways, I got behind a a VW GTI, and I think I was following him to closely and he gunned it and I followed, he tried to take a corner and well failed and just because people try to impress others.

And meanwhile, on the GTI forum...

'So I was driving my GTI on this back road near my house and this CRAZY guy in a 370Z was tailgating me. I eased away from him, but he was still right on my bumper, so I gunned it. I was trying to dial 911 at the same time and lost it. I'm glad he kept going on past me - he probably had a gun or something - pretty sure he was drunk. By the time the Police got there, he was long gone. Really feared for my life. Not sure what I did to tick him off so badly. I've heard a lot of unstable people by 370z's.'

I was behind a GTO 5.7 yesterday at a left turn light. He was sitting in front of me revving & jumping it. I was 2 miles away from the dealership & just got my oil changed, so no way I was going to get on it before I made sure everything was ok.

So the light turns & he guns it. Gets about halfway through the intersection and realizes he's way too fast to make the turn. Slams on the brakes & goes sideways in the gravel, off the brakes, car catches & is now going to the right instead of the left. Comes to a stop & tries to flip it around 180* (y'know...cause that's how they do it in the movies). Car won't break the *** end loose and now he's in a big arc, off the road, onto the shoulder - but at least headed the right direction. Finally gets back on the road and continues on.

All this time I'm sitting about 1/4 of the way through the intersection watching this extreme lesson in how to drive like an idiot. And all the people sitting waiting to go the other direction are watching it too (4 lane divided highway). I'm guessin' he was glad he had tinted windows. I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes.

I'm soooo glad he schooled me in how great his car (and his driving) are...
