Been getting a lot of encounters the past few nights. Rx8 tonight, WRX last night, and some older Jeep a few nights before that. Tonight I was actually tempted since the Rx8 didn't seem very fast and the highway was empty. I fought my urge and did the smart thing and just kept cruising. Less than a 1/2 mile later was a state trooper parked in the grass off the highway. Guess it was Gods way of showing me that I made the right choice. ;)

Had a douchebag civic si with plasti dipped roof ride my ass today on the right lane.
Other day had a similar civic si but a 4 door that kept pacing beside me. Something about civic si drivers...

Best one this week was a dbag in an early 2000's mustang going the opposite way. Dude slowed down next to me and reved his engine... Too much face palm for me to even laugh.

I haven't had any "challenges" since I picked up my '14 brz, but when I had my '13 I got a lot of unwanted attention from kids in their riced out domestics (these are the things that make me go hrmmmmm). The best was a red Cobalt complete with fart can and B-52 wings.

White Civic (Non-Si), heavy tint all around, full bodykit, fartcan, LED tail lights kept revving at me a couple of months ago when my car was all stock. I didn't get it though because the rush hour traffic here is REALLLLLLLY terrible. I guess I won because his lane was probably going 10kph while my lane was going 10.5kph. Lol! My brother and I couldn't stop laughing in the car because it was like a contest between the fastest snails (due to the heavy traffic).

My friend was tail gated and revved at by an orange civic while he was trying to go to a Mcdonald's drive thru from his house. The civic cut him and sped away and he caught up and overtook the car once again before they reached a speed hump. Then he turned to the drive thru and the other car was sooooooo pissed. Probably because my friend didn't give his V-Tec a chance to kick-in (which he did on purpose to get the other car riled up and he was hungry).

On another note, I lent my dad my car because he wanted to try it. He's used to expensive fast cars and didn't bother looking under my car's hood. He just saw me looking at FRS videos doing 300-450whp dyno runs, got my keys and left. He saw a 911 on the road and revved at it while they were going at cruising speed. He returned after and hour and told me "I tried testing your car against a Porsche and once he stepped on the gas I thought your car was going in reverse". I couldn't stop laughing that he thought he had a chance against a Porsche 911 in a straight line. Lol!

I sold my Audi TT roadster because of shit like this. It drove me nuts t the time. I swear there is something in the water. Shit box cars, sedans with "sport" on them. You just drive at normal traffic speeds, Pass a slow one and suddenly they're weaving through a three lane highway to pass you.

I had one lady force me off the road because she tried to cross three lanes and almost side swipe me..

Sold that car, been driving. Boring ass Camry STILL driving the same speed and now it never happens.

But i miss my sports car, so here I am again.

I have not been revved at at all in the last 6 years. Regardless what I was driving. No stories from me I guess. :(

Do you know why people driving Slow Shitty Cars are Weaving in and out of Traffic trying to beat you on the High-Way ?

"Power is nothing, Handling, Skills, and Bravery will win you the Race!"

That was what My friend in college told me in the 02 Civic SI when he was racing the Mustang Cobra. That was the only time I rode with him.

1/ Cobra Rev-ed on him, at the light merging into High-way.
2/ He tried to take off, got his ass Smoked by the Cobra.
3/ He Jumped over Emergency Lane, Cutting in and out of traffic, weaving in front of other cars, and leaving barely any space.
4/ He beat the Cobra.
.
.
.
I asked him, why the "F" did you drive like that ? It scared the Shack Outta me. He was laughing and stated above.

Then I asked him, so if you was to loose to that Cobra, it was just because his car was much more powerful than your Tin Can ? He magically shut off

had a bmw m3 revved the engine real loud right next to me and clearly his passengers didn't want anything to do with what he was up to cause the passenger window kept closing but the driver wanted it down. i look over and nodded and said nice exhaust. passenger in the rear asked me a few things and liked the car too. moral of the story is, this won't work on everybody but its still worth a shot. nice comments

He was confused. I think only thing he knows about his car is V8.
