We have this problem with all our cars down here in Miami...besides the fact that we actually have been rated to have either the first or second worst drivers in the US...All the kids feel like they have something to prove down here

whether we're in the ISF, Nismo, Evo X, or one of the Rx7 FDs...they always come next to us and try to rev their engines and do a race or something...its really quite pathetic

it happens the most in the RX7s though...i guess people think that all FD owners are Dominic Torreto...smh.

So I've got a new neighbor across the street. Young kid (early 20's). Drives a rattle-canned mid 2000's Mustang. Side is all bashed in, wheels don't match, tint is all bubbled. No muffler - just straight pipes. I've noticed that anytime I'm outside and he starts it up, he'll sit there & rev it. Sounds like TOTAL CRAP. It's like he's trying to impress me with it. Yeah buddy...I'm impressed.

Yesterday I was turning off our street while he was turning on. Soon as he saw me, he got on it. Sounds worse at WOT that it does sitting still. Like it's literally going to shake itself apart.

Maybe one day I'll just casually go ask him if he wants to go for a ride in a real sports car.

I don't drive a 370Z, but I get this all the time in my Vette.

I've even had a guy in a 90's mini van try to race me with 2 kids in the back and 1 in the front. All I saw was smoke once he punched it.

of motorheads. What seperates us is experience/knowledge. Domestic/foreign. GM/Ford/Chrysler. Honda/Nissan/Subie. Doesn't matter.
Since I have been modding my Z, I have uncovered a treasure trove of turbo'd/'charged cars and MANY of them mild or full-on sleepers.
I have a 9 second 23 Ford (street...no cage) that I would have to think twice about running against some of these big $$$ cars.
Be the bigger man. If you're not a racer, nod, wave, smile and go on.
If you ARE a racer, put yer ballz on the line and accept the outcome. (A guy I know in Jax Fl is still in the can for manslaughter because of a dragrace gone wrong).
YOU MAKE THE CALL.
p.s. I do MOST of my racing on the track now but IF I know the road, conditions, lack of sidestreets etc. I MIGHT run once....
