Look, its pretty simple. Think of it this way, next time you pull up to a 911 or a Modena or something wouldn't you want to race it? For some POS FWD econobox our cars are like 10 steps up in the food chain. So of course they want to "race." Don't even look at them. Take it to a track, trust me it's a lot more fun than looking for cops or other cars on the road.

the other night, I was driving on a freeway....And i see this car on my rearview mirror running up fast as he could catch up with me then he goes next to me and slows down like he wanted to race me.

I did was slow down a little bit so he doesnt have to be next to me but he did he slow down as well with me..

I was like asking myself, why would this car speed up and be next to me and slow down with me?

is he askign for a race? and what makes him think i wanna race him? Just because I am driving a 350z means I wanna race?

(oh yeah he was driving a subaru wrx, with a loud muffer)

Funny in my area a Honda Civic with a K20 swap runs low 12's which is faster than your car and most on this forum (save for a few turbo cars), and there are plenty of those swapped civics out there. A few of my friends with Honda's run into the 11's and one buddy with a turbo GSR run 10.6 on his street car with a 24.5" slick. My talon made 424whp and ran 11.6 @ 119mph and there were three hondas in my group of friends who could regularly blow my doors off. I'm pretty sure my 11.6 would own most cars on the street, well except 3 hondas i know of. I see you previously owned a DSM so you should know what a built motor, magnus tranny and 60-1 can do to a talon?

Swing up to my neighborhood and I'll make sure you loose to as many hondas as you would like.
ok dick, you have hondas that are worked, obv i'm not talkign about cars with an absurd amount of money put into them. And the whole swing up to my neighbor thing so you can lose to as many hondas as you want comment, just prvoed what i said to be right. arrogant. If i see a honda thats well tuned and not riced out i have nothing bad to say at all but when soemone with a honda looks down on me or has a problem with my car for no apparent reason which by me they often do its irritating, i put this post up to see if anyone else noticed it by them and to see if its just the kids around by me. You start rattling off specs about 12 second cars and all this other garbage like this was about starting an argument when all i did was ask a question. GROW UP. (by the way if i was next to a honda that could do 12 seconds, or a talon that was an 11 second car i wouldnt be dumb enough to race him or her i have a feeling if those cars were next to me on the street i might notice them)

Sure its absurd and a little bit ridiculous, but they do it. Be the grown up and don't feed that crap. Besides, if you should lose to a 4-banger Honda...you'll make us all look like schmucks.
hahaha its hard not to race though when someone keeps pulling up over and over again when ur goin about ur business even if its a complete kill or you lose its fun and you know it lol

my other car is a Honda (5th gen prelude), and i have never had the urge to rev at a Z. that would just be too embarASSing. i used to love my honda--but after the Z, it has sorta turned into the red headed step child. i hardly even wash it now. the Z is everything i wanted the prelude to be, but wasn't.
