Team? 2-300zx, rx-8, srt neon, 240zx on 101S today
I was on 101 Southbound at around 11:30pm -12:00
Coming home from work today in my rx-7 i spotted:
2-300zxs one with a kit, another with mufflers.
1 rx-8, silver and a
1 srt neon
1 and a 240sx
As i pass by you guys i knew you were up to something but are you guys a team? Also who's the driver of the rx-8? i was admiring the team or the cars until the rx-8 fucked around.
Rx-8 actions:
immediately cut across a couple lanes, start to tail me and turn OFF the headlights. (what's with this anyway? too much initial d? blind attack is part of racing now??) tail me like there's no tomorrow even though i am boxed in.
I wouldn't mind racing any of you guys but the traffic conditions were bad, rx-8 guy: you should try lining up OR look ahead at least 10 feet to realize i was boxed in.
you guys apparently exited capitol or tully as i didn't see you guys anymore. going to in-n-out?

don't mean to offend anyone but its usually the srt4 owners who are known for their....lets call it 'lack of wisdom' when driving on the street.
@ work yesterday i saw an srt4 with 4 heads hauling about 90 on bristol and macarthur. fun yes. intelligent no.

I did take off as soon as i got an opening, ended up battling a 300zx on the slow lane for the open lane, and after that all of them exited.. that's why i thought they were a team..

Yeh, most of the srt-4 drivers that i've seen on the road are punks. All of them probably arent but from what i've seen and heard they have that rep. I think their "lack of wisdom" is due to the low price tag on srt-4's that attract young drivers that think their fixed up neon is faster than other cars that cost a lot more. I try to stay away from srt-4's on the road.

i get some stuff like this when im driving the 8, punks in cheap cars (hatch civics, srt-4s, integras) pulling up beside me and blowing by like their cars are faster than mine. I acually got 1 instance of that when I was driving home from the atwater national tour today... I had all the scca decals on my car and a guy in a v6 'stang (with an aftermarket exhaust) pulls up by me and kinda stays even for a bit and then just blows by me.

nope. my car looks cooler, and if you didnt know already, if your car looks fast... thats 25 bonus horsepower to what your car acually has... and for every racing sticker u got one ur car, thats another 10... i had 8 stickers/decals on my car at the time. so that gives me 102 bonus horsepower. so acually, the 8 IS faster.
