Freakin Evos and WRXs...

Junior370z · 06-10-2009, 02:39 PM

I've noticed that most of the people who drive Evos and WRXs are the ones who always mess with me. Pretty much at least once a week on the way home from work. They drive next to me and start "blowing off" right next to me. I don't race them of course. It annoying.

Today a black WRX sti went up to my passenger side and was "blowing off". His windows were tinted dark as hell so I couldn't see his face. I wanted to give him the finger, but was afraid he wouldn't stop. My drive home is only about 10-15 mins. This guy was headed the same direction I was going. He kept annoying me the whole way home almost. If I knew he was going annoy me the whole way I should have just gave him the finger from the get go!

Does this happen to anyone else?

If you cant take someone messing with, or don't know how to just over look it maybe you should just trade for a prius. Life is too short, get over it. Also i wouldn't advise flipping someone off, good way to get shot now days!

Just ignore them really. I literally laugh at them and they know it. I get about 2-3 ricer "fly-bys" per week with their fart cans roaring in the warm summer breeze.

Just get one of these signs and hold it up against your window next time it happens:

I enjoy watching ricers fly by me; especially when I see a cop waiting ahead.

CrownR426 · 06-10-2009, 03:04 PM

Happens all the time bro...
You have to realize that the 370z is the car to beat!
So every ricer on the highways and local streets will try to press your buttons.
Do what I do!
Just smile at them and drive at the speed limit!

Yea Evo's and WRX's are the worse, When I had my WRX I would get an evo try to race me almost every week. Recently I've been getting Challengers trying to race me.

I usually ignore them, can't afford tickets.

DIGItonium · 06-10-2009, 03:07 PM

They're just curious and want to see you gun it so they can hear your car.

That's fine. Someday you might get lucky and they pop their motor. When I had the 350Z, some idiot in a Camaro decided to drive through the left turn lane narrowly missing me on the right lane. I slammed the brakes and got behind him (single lane), and he sped off like a mad man. A few seconds later I drove through a plume of smoke, and then I saw the driver and his friend parked on the side of the road with hazards. White smoke was spewing out from the engine bay and inside the car. The hood was up, and both stared at me with a stupid look as I casually drove by.

too funny. for me its mustangs. seems like hardly a few days goes by that some mustang doesn't try to race me. it does not matter if we are at a red light, in heavy traffic, rain, in a funeral procession, whatever - if a ratty mustang with huge ties and a scoop sees me, he is going to get right beside me, rev it up and tear off through traffic half outta control. see it all the time. hilarious.
