EDIT: BTW, On a scale of 1-10 can you rate all the performance mods you have listed in your sig? You basically have everything I'm looking at getting myself.

I did something pretty stupid the other day; in retrospect, I really have no reason as to why I did it - I was trying to get to church on time, and it just happened hah'
Moderate traffic - saw a civic in the carpool lane with aftermarket tail lights; looked okay in my honest opinion. Anyways, starting passing this chick (yeah...) at 70 ~ish, and apparently I was a bit crude (blunt, rude, etc...) in the way that I passed her...? She caught up, looked over and floored it (I think anyways). She crept away, and I steadily paced her for a while. She slowed down and did the same thing over again; did what some call, a "ricer" fly-by. I sped up past her and allowed her to pass - she kept going surprisingly. Anyways, we came up to some traffic...(shameful part) and I tore it up. I switched lanes quite a few times to keep up with her. I stayed even with her until we passed a known patrol location. Not bad considering how often I braked . Anyways, you guys recall that M5 video vs that blue S4 wagon video? Well, enough said...

Eric, it happens to the best of us sometimes. By the way, that M5 vs. S4 video had a lot of do or die moments.
Since we're on the subject of willing stupidity, I've got a quick story to share. The other night (11pm) on the way home from work (6 hour shift at restaurant ), I merged onto the freeway and immersed myself into the flow of things. Well, my house and my job are only 2 exits away from each other, maybe 3-5 miles tops. So, I was calm the whole way through, but with 1.5 miles left till my exit/turn lane, a "driving" song (as I call 'em) came on and I floored it. First time I hit 100 in ages. Cut off at around 103-105 because I was paranoid that there were cops around. Boom, what do ya' know. Cop right next to me once I slowed down back to 70-ish. I immediately skipped a few heart beats and the officer shined his high beams on me..As we took the exit I prepared to pull over to the right but, the officer just kept going and made a left turn onto the street as if nothing happened. I merged back into traffic and as soon as I reached an intersection next to my house I realized just how lucky I had gotten. I was doing at least 100mph in a 65mph zone. Thank God for that good luck that night. . I really need to invest in a radar detector. lol

Good kill.
Some current-gen 328i was trying to bait me last night on the highway. I was gonna' bite, but then I remembered that my tires were bald and I kept losing grip with just normal driving.
Oh well, getting new tires and rims installed today. Alignment, Rotation, and balanced. Next time a 328i tries get to smart with me I'm gonna' light that ass up.

Well, about a week ago, on the way to school, I was driving, and I see this 00-04 Tiberoun pulling out of a neighborhood. He had rims and aftermarket head/tail lights. Nothing special. I was doing about 45 in a 40mph zone, just minding my own business. Then he pulls up to my right, honks once (I'm pretty sure it is three?) and takes off. No contest, the TL kept up with him even though he had a half-second head start, and passed him with ease. Overall, I smoked him...

My most recent kill was a 2000+ Eclipse GTS or whatever it's called. 60mph roll I was in 6th he ripped it and as soon as I saw that I dropped it into 3rd and was out of there. By 85mph I zoomed right passed and by 105mph I was bus lengths ahead. All of this was on a 35mph zone haha but it was like 3am I think no traffic at all, only 4 cars in 2 mile distance.
Before that I was on the highway racing my friends 2009 Accord Coupe with the 4cyl motor though lol. It was an 65mph roll I dropped it into 3rd and let him get the jump. I gunned it when he was about a car length ahead of me and caught him by 85mph. I passed him doing around 93ish, and was way a head by 100mph. I think he might of let off but I wanted to see what I can top my car out to before the up coming turn, I got it to 120mph before I shut it off. That's it for now.... I'm sure there will be more.
Oh I had one death though, 60mph roll with a 1995 BMW 740iL I dropped the bitch into 3rd and gunned it, by the top of 4th he pulled on me lol.... what can I say he has 270+ft lb and 280+hp

Everybody's getting some good kills in G'job.
Anyways, I guess you can say that this was a kill even though it wasn't my kill. My dad was getting tailgated in his ES350 by a c-class benz. The guy cut lanes and kept pulling up right next to my dad and revving and flooring it and switching in and out of my dad's lane haha. So, finally I told my dad to just get away from this guy and the next time the benz floored it so did my dad. Easy kill haha

most recent race was an ex-police crown vic still had the police interceptor badge on the back. Been looking for one to race cause my buddies hype them up so much saying its got 400hp n how it would kill me. Well anyways i pulled next to him at the light made sure it wasn't a cop n revved my engine. He began revving back n i knew it was on, light turns green n off the line he has me by half a car, as i hit 2nd i began reeling him in fast and passed him, let off at 120 n he was a good 3-4 cars behind, so much for the crown vics being fast lol
#17

lol, spirited driving is not limited by age guys. It's all about knowing your surroundings and understanding when it's ok and when it's not. I don't condone freeway lane-carving in rush hour but a highway pull when it's pretty empty is a whole 'nother story.
#22
and i do drive my cars "spiritedly" once in a while... i just dont race anymore.
#26
i was curious about those. one was pacing me the other night on the hgwy but i just didnt feel like it. i know they have some power but they are pretty heavy ? i think the gs400 was in 2000 with a v8 maybe ?

Damn good kills everyone. keep em coming. Got to roll against a 6-speed 04 TL tonight from a 20 roll. I saw him reach to shift and I took off. Got him by a car length at the light. Shut it down around 60. Fun

Good one because those GS400/430 from 98-05 ran low 14's and trapped from 99-100mph easily, even the mags got them to 0-60 in 5.7 sec, trapping at 99 mph c/d and m/t both. Now the GS300/330 from those years were quite a bit slower.

Some more killlllllllllllllllls for u lol. Yesterday I raced some Mercedes from the 90's the official badge said "300E" so yeah it was loud but that's mostly from exhaust problems lol. I spanked him with no issues I saw him on my side mirror coming up fast I down shifted into second, he passed by and by the top of second I was closing the gap and he let off. Then we came up to a red light and I trashed him by bush lengths before 60mph.
I also re-raced my friend accord. It was a 70mph roll I let him gun it and I LEFT IT IN 6TH gear and floored it lol by 100mph I passed him no problems...lol 6th gear pull ftw.
Raced a Mazda 6, due to the traffic I wasn't able to tell if he was much faster or not but I seemed to keep up for the most part. They seemed like total douche bags but I gave them a small wave and peace sign and got one back so it was good.
Then best of all some kid saw I was sort of speeding and caught up to me in his 03+ Altima idk which trim though. The best part of this all this cocky ass kid (who lives by me might I add) was with his GIRLFRIEND lol. I took off with him at a red light and before 70mph I had him by like 4-5 car lengths, then he did a ricer fly by which I caught him again and passed him. He gave up afterward.
That's it for now .

Good stuff man. I got to toy around with an 04 2.5 altima before on an empty strip of highway, and it wasn't even close. The guy kept running fly-bys on me and mad-dogging me so we hit it from a 50 roll (perfect 2nd gear VTEC range), and I had bus lengths. In the end, I was mad at myself for wasting gas, especially since I was unemployed at the time hahahahah
Btw, these smiley faces are legit! hahaha

Were you in an R6? either the car needs a driver mod or mods period.. the 300zx is a monster without even touching the internals. You sure he was on it.. I know they have some boost lag, but 2.5 car lengths? Did he do a flyby.. details!!
