Ha ha ha, good to know. I thought I was the only one that goes through this on a daily basis, any kind of beater, subaru, honda, volvo, sentra, Infinity, you name it. Ive taken on all challengers and have yet to be embarrased by a loss.. Im sure one day I will get overtaken and my pride will get hurt, til then Im lovin my 2nd brand 2014 307Z Nismo.. I had a 2013 370z NISMO, but got toalled on 17 April last month. Got the 2014 last week.

Dork in g35, jumped from far left behind me to far right lane at light. The right lane ends less than 1\4 mile. I knew what jack-butt was going to try. I rolled down passenger and said "good luck dork". He wouldnt look at me or speak. Lets say i had no trouble with ppl trying to merge

Yeah, I posted the picture with the three Z's somewhere on there I think.

Yeah okay well then, if there's one thing I hate about my Z is the road noise. I was driving home today and there's a stretch of nice enough road that makes so much noise against my tires I have to turn the radio up. Or should I say "tyres" for Limeybastard?

I'm no into doing mods, I like it well enough the way it is, but I think I'm going to put in some sound deadening material.

Yeah TYRES is correct as is windscreen and bonnet and boot :roflpuke2:

Dont worry about the road noise, my previous ride a 13 mazdaspeed was the same, I could hear everything hitting the inside wheel well and so forth.

I don't seem to have this problem... I've only had like 2 people try to actually race me. One was a BMW M5 doing pulls on a highway, the other was a base Z that was just messing around on a local road. Amazing how much distance a Nismo Z can put on a base model..

Nobody (not even the Honda and VW kids) bothers me to race even when I try to. lol Maybe it is a regional thing.

I get people every now and then mess with me still but I guess I either stayed the same or somewhat matured after this thread. I always like to use the method of leading on cars to make them think they are winning, and then before my turn or where ever I'm headed I dust them and go on my way. :yum:

What I love most of all is the cars that punch it at a light when we're both first in line. Vans, compacts, subcompacts, you name it. I've never had an actual fast car do that to me. I wouldn't compete with them anyway on a city street, but I think my gray hair is a signal that I'm not going to race a kid anyway.

For some reason, and it happens a lot, I'll come out of a store or something and another Z will be parked next to mine. I think that's kinda cool.

Mine's the convertible:

Guilty. I love parking next to another Z.

I wish driving was like super mario kart. The hell with the turtle shells, I'd be using sharp tacks, machine guns, r kelly's doo doo butter. I'd be so on a rampage

Maybe you should stop racing so you won't total this one too... And yes you will beat POS cars. Love to see the look on your face when a Vette pulls up. :bowrofl:

But seriously this thread reeks of street racing. :shakes head:
