But a part of being hip isn't abbreviating everything, know me sayin'? Unless zoomers are getting dumber by the minute. Tiktok melts brains I swear.

did you downshift like you were going to race, and then slow down?

Not even that. He lined up with me, caught my attention because my windows were open and I heard some voice crack, then decided he'd take off. Twice he did this.

He'd know if I downshifted, my exhaust isn't exactly subtle.

I get this a handful of times a month on my commute home.

Z1 Motorsports (a big Nissan/Datsun parts and speed shop) is in the same town where I work (Carrollton, GA) and I pass by it on my commute. Lots of folks in their Zs pass through there and seem to always be looking for a street race. I usually just stare over at them, nod, give them the "let's go" finger (handing pointing up, then forward) and let them take off while I continue on my merry way at the same speed I was doing before.

The even better part was this idiot was doing this at an intersection where a police station was RIGHT beside us.

I think I will start trolling them like you. I don't know why these kids can't just come to the track, they all want to big up on the streets, but scared for their cars and safety on a track when there is less at risk. I love dogfighting on a track as I like to call it.

The Japanese call it touge, @Ultramaroon calls it toe ghey.

There was a big stance show this past weekend in Louisville. I happen to be passing through and some civic si on stock wheels / cut springs gets mad I pass while on cruise control. I see him switch lanes behind me to do a ricer flyby. My fmic is very hidden, so he likely had no idea. He went to fly by me and I just ripped it right by him. His gf was big mad.

Cool

I had a CTS-V have a go at me a few weeks ago. I pretended I didn't see him. A few ricers, a couple fast cars probably knowing they'd smoke me trying to bait me into getting gapped. My car is set up for drifting, so I pride myself knowing they may be able to take me out in a straight line but I do well enough in my own hobby
