In PR where I have a Kia Rio rental I was following an FR-S that was exhibiting some spirited driving but I think he realized I was following him because he was picking up speed. He got stuck behind some traffic though. Then I saw a white Audi with tints and exhaust and passed him. I wished I could have stayed to watch the FRS and Audi duke it out but my exit for the mall was coming up. :troll:

. I wish I had a dash cam for times like these.

Loved my speed3.. but certain people swear it's like the best car ever though.. lol. how easy those turbo blow.

I was in the Savannah area and just woke up to meet another group of 86ers (#syndicate86) for cars and coffee.

'twas at a stoplight of course. This 13' or 14' Scion TC pulls to my left and stops at the red where I was already.

It seemed like 5 minutes passed by lol. I was thinking of doing a pull since I just went stage 2 OFT with Borla header.

But light turned green and we both just normally driving. 2 or 3 seconds pass, he does a weak pull off of 2nd gear.

I thought to my self. He is trying, now let ME try. I do a 2nd gear from 3500 rpm.

I passed him at the end of 2nd gear.... shifted to 3rd, and left him at yesterday.

I also had to make a right afterwards, so he was probably disappointed since it looked liked he was still trying when I turned.

Lol!! Well Savannah, GA has a decent car community and that is where I had most of my encounters

Guess it depends on how car your city is

My BRZ looks mostly stock with quite exhaust and rarely gets challenged, but I drive pretty slow. Funny part is my car ran 8.3 @ 87mph in the 8th so the cars that do challenge (GTI - veloster - civic si) are biting off more then they can chew

that car is an overpriced gt86 wannabe anyway...it's just the rich man's gt86 because they have too much money to actually afford an gt86

More like butter knife haha.. Whoever that driver is, he sure can drive and not afraid to push through those curves. Can't tell how fast he's going since I lost sight of it so quick

I was driving home from work and was directly behind a Silver Godzilla. We were both just barely getting on the freeway onramp when he slammed on his brakes. He just sat there for a good 10-15 seconds at a complete stop. Holding everyone back. (he might've been fiddling with the knobs and buttons to allow launch mode)

He then launched his car harder than I've ever seen in person and that car flew! The only problem was, there is a small uneven bump from cracked roads (poor road conditions where I live) right before the lane merges with the freeway. He hit it going at least 80mph and got enough lift that he almost lost control. Looked cool though.
