I then roll down my window and inform them politely that i will now be racing, and roll the window up.

Our cars launch and grip like a beast. Its normally game over.

Wow, and I thought since ownership ( almost 4 weeks now ) that it was a mere coincidence, occurs to me also.

hmm. I'm beginning to believe that perhaps cars are symbolic penises after all.

You sir (or madam) are correct.

For a great many people they are exactly that.

One of my pet hates is I am driving in ( right lane ) doing speed limit and there is plenty of space in the left over taking lane. Car in left lane is 100 yards or so behind me if not more, he or she then eventually gets past me then parks themselves right in front of my car! I mean for god sake can you not make some space first there is no one else around!

Dayuuummm. I read my first post and its trippin me out lol. I think i can understand the suspects viewpoint. About 15 years ago when i got my firstcar which was a 4 door chevorlet cavalier rs 4 banger, i had no clue about cars and their abilities. As i begin to learn how to drive, i started going around thinking i was a bad ***, and my car was bad *** without any clue about cars. Even when i got dusted by other cars, i still acted like a jack ***. So i can only assume, that people who have no knowledge about cars all their lives continue on this behavior without any realization. Lol i think i'm thinking way too much into this

Im driving in the rain and this POS Honda comes next to me and (hes going 50 MPH about thats what i was doing) drops it into neutral, revs into red line, shifts into what i think was 3o r 4rth gear and does the puh...puh...puh.....puh...Puh....PU....PUHHHHHHHH. .... pewwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
i was in third gear at 50 so i was already pretty high reved, and you know our cars like high revs. End of story.

His girlfriend was staring at me the whole time.

Win win

Hataz goonna hate, soo keep ignoring them.

Roddy1 05-09-2014 03:45 PM

I don't even entertain people trying to race me. You have to let it happen if your in that situation. I have more important things to do than race people. My commutes are not an ego trip.

The thing I dislike about the Z ... its a bit loud inside, in the rear hatch area :)

gurneyeagle 05-09-2014 04:02 PM

The best way to get back at some clown who's egging you on to race or trying to get your attention is to simply ignore them. It will drive them crazy.

Codename067 05-09-2014 04:11 PM

To debunk your theory, the "slowest" car that ever tried to pull on me was a FRS. And just last night some guy in 535 tried...but failed, we got to a red light he kept saying how much of a monster the Z was.

Maybe they see your face and think they can take you just by the way you look?:inoutroflpuke:

jk. you're just unlucky i suppose?

LevelZ 05-09-2014 04:11 PM

Yea. I seem to drive trucks crazy, especially the ones that are like 6ft off the ground. Got at least 4 of those guys within a month. Other cars... eh not so much.

If somebody tries to race you roll down your window and give them a big smile and wave...it scares them.

that's true. people think they're invincible until the glass barrier is removed. :icon17: then they get scared.
