So much hating on this thread for stupid reasons...

Sure some clowns really are worth moaning about, but reading some of these I'm thinking... come on... does that really bother you!?


That being said... SA drivers are often proper asshats!
Lots of BRX/FRs/86 drivers here just ignore you like you don't exist... then of course we have a certain portion of the GTi brigade who love to race anyone and anything - so you can imagine how excited they get when they see an 86.

It's especially exciting to watch them try to race you in traffic on the highway and then get stuck behind a truck or slower car when changing lanes every 5 seconds while I cruise past at the speed limit

A Nissan Rogue, seriously bro.

It's possible.😞 my car sounded like one for a day. With my srt exhaust, I purchased some shitty fa20club el headers and installed them . sounded like pure shit. I installed them and drove my car around expecting a soothing sound only to realize I had to take them off asap!. Never in my life did I feel like a ricer.

i had a dude in a porsche (i think it was a cayman) floor it next to me when the light turned green and decided to fly down the road through a blind corner on a wet road after it rained

i was like really man?

maybe he confused my car for another porsche


another time i had a two guys in a 370Z base model based on the rims pulled up next to me when i was cruising and revved at me to race..i shook my head no and then they took off...i'm thinking why do they even bother trying to challenge a fr-s especially in a straight road

A slghtly lowered white pick-up truck, when comin back from savannah I guess you can say "was trying to race".

I could tell he was trying to go really fast but honestly he was going so slow and trying so hard that I had a hard time telling if he was trying to go..

After his second slow run for wanting to race, I try to catch up to him but he gets off the highway out the ramp, so I just high beamed him about 6 times..... <>

Consider them muffler deletes:

Hellcat/V8s: Sounds insanely awesome

4 cylinders: sound brappy and droney

Boxers: in between

Last weekend about 3am sunday morning I was at a stop light. A black G35/37 pulls up beside me with his music blaring he rolled down his window and started yelling random things at me but I paid no attention. Light turns green and he took off, he failed the notice the undercover cop behind him at the light. About 2 seconds after the light had turned green a pair of blue and red lights turn on as well. Needless to say but I had a good night

Last weekend I was waiting at the lights near the only E85 servo in the area. I was on the way to a big car meet with my mate.
Enter behind me a delicious Evo 8. Sitting there 'mirin it in the mirror and nek minnit he is giving it some revs. Little did he know, I still had my prototype axle back on which had zero muffler. Gave it one crack of the throttle which I'm fairly sure knocked some local birds out from shock.

Dude was getting delicious E85 also, had a bit of a chat and he was like "I didn't see your pipe on the back, scared the ABSOLUTE FUCK out of me.

Fun times.

Had a good one last night - I was behind another car with a loud exhaust. Honestly I'm not even sure what car it was and he takes off once the light goes green. I'm guessing he wants to see if I will respond. I don't. So while I'm about 40 meters behind his car he starts swerving in his lane left and right.

I'm not sure what the guy's deal was. This was at night too.

LMAO! This basically happened to me the other night. Was getting home really late another dude probably early 20s in his M4 pulls up next to me at the light and starts revving his engine. I jokingly revved my Jetta back at him acting like I was down to race and the second the light hit green he launched forward. About 15-20 seconds I see police lights ahead and him pulled over. Made my good night an even better one!
