Not really a "race" type situation but on Thursday after leaving a motorcycle dealership I spotted this red Sentra weaving in and out of traffic so I catch up to him and it's a SE-R, I didn't see any Spec V on it so I assume it was a regular SE-R. The guy even had his dog in the backseat driving like that, then the idiot decides to tailgate and stay with me for a couple of miles.

Maybe it's the area I'm in but most of the people around here don't try to race lol, I usually just end up trolling angry BMW drivers on the highway lol
I've had one EG hatch pull up to me ( I'm assuming a single slammer) and rev, looked like he was 16 or 17, so it was late and on a straight stretch so I gave him a little show. I launched, and spun second and still took him by a few lengths in about 1/8 mile but I pulled I to the fast station where my buddy works and he just came in and started asking me all about it lol
Other than that I get angry BMW Audi owners on 395 who think because I have a sporty coupe I have to drive 85+ so when they start tailgating me I usually find the next slow vehicle in the right lane and just match their speed

I've had two different new Golf RR's being douches around me so far. Riding my ass and then flying by me. These VW guys get a car with a little bit of power and think they're the fastest things on the road.

Would love for them to roll up on me when I'm in my other car

Mustang GT blew past me on a two lane (same way) road then slowed down to be right next to me. I figured what the heck, stepped on the gas and quickly outran it. He caught up quickly, since I slowed down, and said, "Dude, I slowed down so I could take a better look at your car! Nice car bro!!!". We laughed it off and he went on his way.

Has some scumbag looking kid rev his engine next to me at two stop lights in downtown Charlotte today. I wasn't in the Subaru, I was in a Ford pos Enterprise rental car. Was like WTF? When he saw I was pulling into the federal building he took off really fast, not sure why?

so there was this 370Z behind me (looked like he was in my back seat) and I can't tell what he was doing back there but I know he got a bit more erratic after my car shot a flame from the exhaust.
It wasn't intentional as I haven't quite mastered doing it on demand but I hope he learned his lesson about tail gating up hills in congested areas.

I was driving in the city, on the way out really. Some guy in a Ferrari 458 Italia is following me. I get onto the highway on the way home and the guy paces up next to me revving. We get to an intersection and he starts revving me at the lights. As the light turned green he shot off straight down the intersection and I put my left blinker on and I went up the left intersection road and I came back around and went left again which was where he took off and then I went home.

that would be awesome! My step daughter is 6 and I have to have her sit kind of sideways or with her feet in the middle. There's a good chance she's gonna be short when she's older so we are good for a while.
