No she didn't!! I couldn't believe this lady in a 2000 Lexus ES300 tried me! I'm costing to a gentle stop at a traffic light when I noticed this blacked out ES300 ease up on my bumper. At the last second, before she comes to a complete stop, she decides to ease over into the empty lane next to me. I noticed the badging on the rear trunk lid had all blacked out letters, so I'm thinking this must be some kind of limited edition sport series or something. Right then and there I'm thinking to myself this lady might try me but I doubted it. Soon as the light turns green she GUNS IT!! I hit half throttle just to see if she was serious - YES she was serious! I could hear that silky smooth Lexus V6 shifting and humming and she had already jumped a half a car length ahead of me, so I floored it. Ate her lunch by 3 car lengths. She didn't have a chance in hell. Here's the vehix car comparison.

Damn. You guys are going to have to dial in the comparison on your own. For some reason the link doesn't transfer. CL S v.s. ES300

01clsstock

not everyone is trying to race

supaman8118

HAHAHA your allllways racing

USURPER

Suuuuuuuurrrrrrree. That's why that chick chose to line up with me instead of just stop behind me like she originally should have done. Naaaaaaaaa. She wasn't trying to race me . She just wanted to see how hard she could push her OWN car right? Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. I understand where you're coming from, 01clsstock.

You just do you and I'll do me okay? Okay.

USURPER

What?!?!?! I didn't do nuffin!


Seriously, though, I don't take HALF of the 'come ons' people throw at me. Just last week this dude in a silver 911 Carrera tried to run me. I didn't bother. I just kept trucking along. I'm not HALF as bad as I am/was in my CL2.2. Besides, if I REALLY wanted to hot dog it I would have baught a Vette instead of the CL S I'm currently driving.

CL Platano

Yeah the ES300 and ES330 are no competition at all I ate up a ES330 the other night it was amusing.

USURPER

Lexus makes great cars but these people running around trying to challenge other people are kind of silly. Lexus didn't design their cars for competition on any level. However, I would think twice about challenging an SC430.

BigLizard

Godamnit, no one wants to race me with my car. They hear loud engine and exhaust, and are like...fuck that.

USURPER

Go to Miami and take a stroll up and down I-95, Biscayne Blvd or the Dolphin Expressway. Hell, hang out around the Homestead raceway - I've seen some SICK Ferrari Maranellos, Lamborgini Diablos, Vipers, tricked out M3s, M5s and M7s, and LOUD blown 427 Cobra kit cars that could burn another hole in the ozone layer.

AcuracltypeS03

M7's??? what??


U are always racing a chik tho.. Was this one hot???

AznX TL

i beat a es300 that had 20" with my 2.2

USURPER

The M7 was a type I got "M" crazy, which reminds me, I'm hate BMW and Mercedes so much because they have all these damn classifications n' sh!t like they're offering some type of supernatural space ships instead of cars. And they are a fucking PAIN IN THE ASS to maintain, so I don't consider a premadonna car to be so awesome if you have to take a second mortgage on your house to maintain the damn thing. Okay, I got off track.....


.....I'm not quite sure if the chick in the ES300 was hot. Her windows were tinted out. From the outline of her hair and face she looked like she may have been:

It's been about half and half with these onlookers. Except for the dude in the Altima SE-R most of the dudes I've squared off with wouldn't even try forreal. More women have been bold than men. I guess they like my ugly mug.



....Oh yeah, you gotta admit the CL S is a sexy looking car too.

Sun Diego CL-S

i see where you're coming from. after having a slow car, and then being upgraded to a CLS, you just gotta.

USURPER

I still love my 2.2. I just missed the V6 power of my Maxima but I didn't want another Maxima. Besides, the new Maximas look like fat tacos with CL2.2 tail lights! I really tried to search hard and I couldn't find anything that satisfied me like the CL S for the price. I almost bought a 350Z - I even joined the my350Z website but as I looked at the pitiful trunk space of the 350Z over and over in regards to the CL S, I opted for the Acura. I commute and like to take junk with me when I go on long road trips alot, so the 350Z lost out.

CL Platano

yeah man when I had the 2.2 I made more exhaust noise than anything else, now I just go spank people without really trying. It's like comparing Glass Joe to Clubber Lang

AcuracltypeS03

Spanking people??

AznX TL

thats because they're not trying to race you either

NightRider

Whether people try and race or just try and fuck with you, they definitely make a conscious effort at times. Like when you are just coasting at the speed limit up to a stop light, and someone accelerates PAST you up to the red light. Or when people hear/see you accelerate when merging onto the highway, so out of nowhere a Kia Rio starts going 85 mph, lol. Maybe it is just certain areas, but I work in Boulder and people regularly pass me going 65 in a 45 zone. I have limo tint, so maybe they are scared or something? Do they think that I will be pulled over before they will so they can do whatever? I am too tired to think of such nonsense anymore, must sleep.....

AcuracltypeS03

LOL kia??

YeuEmMaiMai

this must be the "damn I got a new powerful car" Once the cops get you, you'll mellow out

AcuracltypeS03

aHAH

If it's that serious to you, then perhaps you need to be in the "Racing and Competition" forum. This forum is called "Street Encounters" not "Illegal Racing" or "Competition on the Street." Some of you people on this site have a real asinine way of throwing around comments and opinions with little regard to the purpose of the forum or the nature of the thread. What also amazes me on this site is the very people that are so callous are also the ones that are very thin skinned and can't take the responses they get from the people they target their opinions and comments at.

YeuEmMaiMai

Dude, I am speaking from experience...all it takes is for a cop to see you take off quick and they can write up what is called a "jackrabbit start" ticket...... if they see you gun it to pass someone before the lane ends, you can wind up with wreckless driving.....lol

I think you are chomping at the bit every chance you get for a race.......lol

i'm just tellin' u to be careful no need to get ur panties in a bunch lol

It's like that time I posted I won a race against a Dakota 5.9R/T while I was on the cell phone I got all bastardized because I was on the cell phone. It's called "Street Encounters", like you said USURPER, it's the nature of the tread to be doing things legally you shouldn't be doing. It's also the nature of the internet, people can say all they want because they're not standing face to face infront of you. That's why you have to not take it personally and focus on the positive comments, not the losers just trying to get their post #'s up.

LOL, actually, I'm just looking at two of them now on this thread, both have been on here less time than I have and have over 500 posts. Point made.

crippler22

We might not agree on each others cars but one thing we have in common is it sure is fun to smoke someone. Nice race. Watch for cops and race responsibly.
