Trolling street racers? :w00t:

I don't get it. I have never had anyone try to race me regardless of what I was driving. Maybe I'm just not paying attention or something.

You can see the car shudder with each shift...it made me cringe.

I test drove one...36k was out of my price and the BRZ was smaller which works better for my dreaded on street parallel parking. :cry:

Thanks for your service. Former Army as well, went in as 68W and got sucked into going W1 which I don't regret but wouldn't do over again lol.

Move to Nc. Your almost expected to have a CC permit here lol. But you don't have to as Nc is an open carry state which is awesome to be able to walk into your local wally world with an ak slung over your shoulder and no one cares. Also we are now allowed suppressed hunting if your into that which I want to try as soon as my .308 can gets its tax stamp. But otherwise your totally allowed FA, SBR, etc. And no stupid ass magazine limits.

The poster did what she should in evading, though she should've also called the cops in case those hooligans didn't back off and tried to run her off the road or otherwise stop her escape from them. If that had happened and they're approaching her car, use of the firearm? Absolutely!

But always remember Jeff Cooper's first rule of a gunfight: don't be there.

Be safe, be alert, be armed ;).

Exactly. That is why I am glad they amended the Castle Law in Nc. Now it covers not only your home but your place or work and your car. These road rage assholes that think they can use their 3000 plus pound car as a weapon don't always know what is in that car they are trying to screw with. Might be an Mp5, who knows...

SirBrass 11-26-2013 02:56 AM

Eh, mp5 is overrated ;). Heavy, expensive, picky on ammo. AR 15 is better. Both aren't quickly accessible when you're strapped into a driver's seat. Pistol is good then ;-). I prefer my 1911, but any decent 9mm, 357sig, 10mm, 40s&w, 45acp, .38, or 357mag will do just fine so long as you've got good defensive ammo (that's hollow points, folks, not fmj) & can accurately shoot your chosen weapon with that defensive ammo.

It's like good driving: you have to practice, practice, practice to get & stay competent at it.
