so did i until i saw this story, tbh i would have killed the man in front of his kids, he definitely deserves to die

tbh i think its just the jealously of seeing a nismo Z driving next to you, its a street legal race car lol who wouldnt want one

I know, I know... ironically, I'm actually a big dude and he was some scrawny wanna-G. I don't know what came over me to let this go when normally I would have turned into The Hulk... maybe I'm getting old. Anyway, I have a cracked windshield to remind me every day that I should've beat that guy's ***. Just got it tinted a few days before the incident and it doesn't obscure my vision yet, so I'm gonna stay in denial until it does. :P

Ask your tinter and see if he takes insurance, my tinter does and he was able to replace the windsheild on one of my older cars and retint the car and all I paid was my deductible

I would have knee-capped that SOB! He would walk with a limp the rest of his miserable life. Either a base ball bat or a S&W 40 to the knee in front of his kids.

I get almost constant looks. Not too many say anything to me though, only a had full of people say anything to me about it. What I find interesting though is that guys look, point, and might say something. Girls on the other hand just look on the "sly." And they almost never spak, more so give the look of "I hope he comes over and talks to me." lol Oh and the occasional wave while driving. The funniest part though is that if I'm in uniform I've actually had a few people ask me if I'm undercover or if I chase the street racers....Yeah lol

Well, I got pulled over for the first time in my Nismo. I've been here in Texas for almost 2 years now on a TDY deployment with the company I work for. So anyone that's been to Texas knows the police don't play around.

I was on a 4 lane highway headed home, 2 lanes for each direction. Speed limit is 70, I'm probably doing around 80, in 4th gear as I was passing someone. As I'm passing, a Sheriff goes by in the other lane headed the opposite direction. I didn't really think much of it, slowed down and got back into the slow lane. About a half a mile down the road I look in my mirror and I see flashing lights coming up on me FAST. I pretty much knew the deal so I just went ahead and pulled over and waited for him.

Once he saw my WA state plate he pretty much knew I was in the Army or affiliated with them, as Ft. Hood is just right down the road. When he saw the inside of my car he was like "what in the world are you doing to this car"... lol, inside completely stripped. Just let him know I was hopefully going to start tracking it when I get back home to WA. He then told me "well this isn't a race track", semi serious, semi laughing. He looked at my insurance info and ran my license and let me go.

Not having a front plate, and not having any resonators on my Ark exhaust, is the reason I believe he pulled me over. I don't think he clocked me, just assumed I was speeding. He did ask me if I knew why I was being pulled over and I did tell him that I was speeding a little bit.

Driving around the highways in Dallas (especially near DFW) there was literally a visible speed trap every 2-3 miles with cops just sitting on the side of the road. Couldn't help wondering if there were too many cops with nothing to do or what.

So today I went to Target to pick up some random christmas supplies and a little kid made his mom stop to see the "racecar". I let him sit in the drivers seat and honk the horn. He couldn't reach the pedals but he was happy to inform me that he was seven years old, his name is Ty and that his brothers are tall so he will be able to drive race cars soon.

I still get a kick out of driving this thing around.

Had a V6 Charger pull up next to me at a stop light. Looked like something straight out of DUB magazine.. Had big 22" or 24" chrome wheels, and had Skittles decals all over it.. lol. I've been seeing this trend lately... just seen a Oldsmobile the other day with DUB's and KFC logo on the side of it... Hey whatever floats your boat...

Anyway, this Charger starts revving up at me, I just glanced over and shook my head. I wanted to smoke him soooo bad but it was in the city and its just not worth the risk... So when the light went green of course he took off and then kept antagonizing me by speeding up and then slowing down next to me. Finally he got the hint and left me alone.

Hey, it's only a squirt gun. It squirts pb out at 1200 rounds a minute. The libs will have a tough time.

You know there are about 9-10 NISMOs in our area now. 2 07-08, both red. 7 09-12, 2 red (including mine), 2 white (including yours), 1 black, 1 silver, 1 PG. 2 13s, 1 black, 1white.

There are a grip of failed Donk type cars around here. I just laugh at them. There are a plethora of Z33s gone wrong though, and that is probably why you got "addressed" by the authorities.

I got "addressed" going in Warrior Way by a police officer standing with the gate guards. He asked me where my front license plate was. And I told him the truth, it was behind my seat. He told me to put it in the window and he wouldn't write me a ticket. So I asked him if they fixed the penalty for no front place and his response was priceless. He said that his job is to enforce the law. It's not his fault that the penalty was chopped up when they re-wrote the violations/penalties and that he would still write me a 100 dollar ticket. He then asked me if I wanted to have to pay that fine and hire a lawyer to go to court. I replied, "sure...........if you want to waste both of our precious time. I will print out the penal code and bring the ticket to court with me, but since I don't want you wasting tax dollars.......I will just put it up there." I used a big red angry bird to hold it up there behind the gauges, lol.
