Funny encounter with an STI!!!

jcasti07 · 11-21-2012, 03:55 AM

So my fiance and I took a cruise to the opposite side of town yesterday, and I thought I'd share this quick story with everyone. As we were on the highway during rush hour, I noticed a car weaving through traffic behind me. Turns out it was an STI, and he approached us hoping for a race. He kept revving his engine and speeding up little by little hoping that I'd follow suit, but several times I told him no. His persistence, and my patience, got him a nice surprise, though... After one last time of revving his engine, red and blue lights began to flash right behind him, and sirens became audible! I couldn't stop laughing for the rest of the drive! Drive with due regard for others, guys. It could save you a ticket; especially during rush hour!

ROFL. I get rednecks in big trucks looking for a run or a miscellaneous head sticking out of the window eye raping my car or experiencing an eargasm.

Sounds like he got what he deserved.
Good job resisting and not letting him show that the STi is quicker.

My truck will lay into the Stock 370Z's pretty good. Down low the diesels torque will kill a stock 370Z anytime, after about 60mph though its a different story.

Also a cat deleted 370Z's exhaust is not any better than a DPF deleted diesel exhaust, the only difference is you can see the diesels.

Or anytime there's cornering or braking involved. The truck wins a very short drag race, loses in any other situation

True, but the car would also lose if you had to pull anything, drive in snow and ice, and off road.

Are we done naming things that each vehicle wasn't made to do? lol

Trucks aren't meant to be raced. End of discussion :P damn rednecks with their stupid jacked up trucks! >.<

Jasonle · 11-28-2012, 08:08 PM

lol

It was probably one of the guys on this forum that jump ship for a better car and wanted to show you how fast it is!

Smart move on your part!

Wait wait, how deep is this snow?

With the right tires on ice or with a light coat of snow, I still give the Z the edge with equivalently-skilled drivers. Off-road or in deeper snow sure the truck wins.
