I'm getting desparate. GN vs Focus

Had to take my dad's car out again to air up the tires lol. Drove around for a minute. Pulled up to a lowered Focus with exhaust. It was some white guy blasting rap (which isn't bad but he had the whole gangster thing going on). I couldn't resist. I told the girl he was going to race. When the light went green I jumped out by a quick carlength to make sure he took the bait and backed off. He floored it and when he got even with me I eased into the gas purposely spinning the tires and passed him going sideways. I backed off a second later at 50mph. I told the girlfriend to watch because this guy was going to do a flyby. Sure enough he comes flying by me seconds later still floored as we were laughing at him. I don't think he was too happy to get beat by an old grandpa's car.

Tried to race a TL-S that was next to me but he wouldn't go...

hahaha, I'd love to see how you were passing him spinning your tires while going sideway!

The driver of the TL-S was probably from this forum and had read about your GN...that's why he didn't go?

Sounds like the average TL driver is a lot smarter than the gangsta Focus dude.

I wouldn't have raced you just to see your GN go.

those lame-ass Focus cars...to start off with they look like a wannabe import car with it's rear tail-lights and back end...but you can also add-on, for a couple thousand, the cool bodykit with dual exhaust going through it...there's one like that (it's purpleish/blue) around where i live...what a waste of money...

So what kind of douche bag does it take to rev on a Focus and a TL-S in a 600HP Grand National

Ok, I'll be the first to admit, I'd do it too

I just can't help it. When you pull up next to a guy and you can tell he thinks his 15 second car is super fast and he's way too confident, you have to spank him. Especially the kind that doesn't know what a GN is and is left scratching his head on how a quiet Buick Regal beat him that bad. This was my dad's low 12sec daily driver Turbo-T, not my GN. I said GN because I didn't feel like explaining what a Turbo-T is.

Same here. I'm not afraid of losing. If I get beat on the street, I'm definately pulling you over to see what's under the hood.
