"Come Race Me Bro" Encounters

[FR-S Matt]

I cut off a Challenger RT from a stoplight to get over quickly to turn and he got mad and tailgated me. We then moved to a curvy road following and he quickly slowed down as I kept going. Not really a race, but kinda funny when straight line cars are presented with curves.

Stopped to get gas and some Powerball tickets. I noticed a Genesis coupe 2.0t owner a few pumps over staring at me. As he leaves he drives by me slowly then proceeds to burn out across the gas station within a few feet of women and children. Gas station is packed with people buying Powerball tickets. I ignored the idiot.

Those or the G35/7's, Genesis, and a few Caymans

Yeah, what are people thinking in sedans amirite?!?! All those guys in e90 M3s, and M5s and C63 AMGs. They think they got a sports car or something?!?! Hello dude, you bought a car with 4 doors! Shouldn't you be driving your family somewhere or something!?! Sheesh!

Here's a philosophical question - is it that the douchebag is attracted to certain cars, or do certain cars turn a person into a douchebag?

We're all douchebag in someways.... Certain cars turns people into douchebag, WITHOUT them knowing of being one.

In what state is this white brz in? Sounds like me. Umadbro

CA. Lol I'm not mad as long as I'm not a victim of some idiot swerving into me.

Had a Civic Si coupe chase me to a McDonalds Drive thru. When I got to the order box he drove around and waited for me near the exit. After I paid I casually drove past him and turned right onto the street, expecting him to follow me. Instead he went left. He didn't even order anything! Tha fuck?!

Had a guy pull up on me at a light in a trans am. My windows were down so he taunts me asking "hey is this the new 2013 car of the year"? I nodded. He then asked if I wanted to race a '95 and I said " no thanks you're probably to fast for me". He said "yeah I am". Then hit it when light turned green then got pulled over by the cop sitting on the next block.

So if I drive a GTR or one of the 3s 911 on the fast lane, will I encounter any racing thing going one from other cars often ?
The twin just too attracted for others eventhough I just commute to work

That is just funny. The fact that they notice you and spend their time doing that proves that you have already won .

What would be fun is to watch one of them try to pull that on the Crawford BRZ.


I would personally let them win and then when he think he has won rev the fuk out of him to get him by surprise and essentially tell him " a joker like you was never worth my time to begin with".

On 2 separate occasions while I was driving on the highway, I've had a guy in a Camaro zoom past me, slow down to be side by side with my car, rev his engine, and then speed off again. Not sure what it is about these kids in Camaros.

Post some of your encounters you've had!

This made me LOL pretty hard
