LOL FJ cruiser racing... all about the offroad. Try a Rav4 (V6). It's faster.

I felt like a douche today. I was doing some red light racing with tc off, note I was not racing anybody just having fun with the turbo, until I made a U turn and totally wiped out. Did a full 🍩 unattended causing a little jam. Last time I do shit like this on busy roads.

The last 15sec (on vid). This happened to me on way to class once on my truck. It's so light in back that it spun, hit tad of sidewalk and spun again. I had to get a new steelie, but truck lived on!

Pulled up to the light, had a 2016 gt350 sitting on my left, reving it's engine. (It was my friend, giving me crap) When a '13 or '14 gt500 Shelby pulls up on my right, and starts reving it's engine. Wow, do those things sound good, especially that flat crank 5.2L. Much less the insane performance. I'm tempted to trade in my car and buy one... but I'd end up in jail or dead.

And for the record, I beat them to the next light (no speeding or even racing) as they were so busy checking each other out, they didn't notice the light turn green.

A Ford ST sees me coming by in the right lane this morning and suddenly cuts me off and starts weaving through traffic with no signal. I pull up behind him at the light and he starts bouncing a low rev limiter to get the exhaust to pop and I'm just shaking my head like look at this tool.

I felt sorry for the Domo sticker on the hatch...

This was from awhile ago, one friday night I was driving through the different bypasses in the city and I saw an M3 driver, he was revving out 1st gear somewhere around 8k rpms in traffic, like 20 mph traffic, I pulled alongside to see what the deal was, guy was just revving the car out, slowly. Car sounded very angry. I downshifted to 2nd next to him but it was nothing to the shrill tone of the m3 engine.

I'm assuming it wasn't the V8 because that thing sounds great

I had this older 350Z pull up next to me yesterday, stare me down, rev his engine and go tearing off past me at like 30 over the speed limit. And to top it off, one side of his exhaust was dangling down under the car. It was almost scraping the ground each time he hit a small bump...

Not exactly a "Come race me bro" moment but still funny. I was on my way to work this morning, cruising in middle lane at 70mph in a 65 zone. A speedy black Accord showed up from behind, cut me and everyone else off and disappeared. He must be doing at least 85mph+. Two minutes later I saw some christmas lights of a Police SUV flashing. I shook my head and giggle all the way to work hahaha.
