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 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

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.

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.

But seriously this thread reeks of street racing.
