alright folks let's post the vehicles that either won't leave us alone, or we won't leave alone.

BMW, WRX, VW. These are my bullies and they feel the need to pick on a stock looking all black f150, my only visible mod is tint.

SHO, mustang, challenger, camaro, anything exotic.
I pick on these.
Altho I haven't got a SHO to try me, I always pretend they are.
I just enjoy the mustang sound.
Challenger? Accepted!
Exotic? I love your cars and your women.


Next!

When I had my car (before deer) I played around with a spicy mustang roush stage three( I’m no expert on roush stages) and absolutely got walked on from a 30 mph roll to about 75 mph.

The only other thing that played with me was an ******* with a Lexus es350 that was too dangerous to play with on back roads. He was passing on double yellows and would get in front of me and drop to 25mph to force me to pass.

There was a mustang v6 but my 5.7l Ram 1500 even ate those for breakfast so in the SHO it’s a no brainer.

Admittedly, I don’t have the traffic SM105K does. The total population for my town is 2500 people on thanksgiving when extended family is visiting. Therefore, my car exposure is severely limited.

Ugh, where do I begin...

Well, the XSport gets tested all the time. Probably more so than you guys in a SHO.

It's got wheels and loud exhaust, so I'm assuming most people think I'm some rice-boy, lol. Dont get me wrong, it's heavy and not the fastest thing on the road, but it surprises the shit outta ppl.

Most tested by BMW M3s, Golf GTI, standard Mustang GTs and the like. I destroyed an M3 (previous model) a few months ago stop light to stop light and he wouldn't give up lol. He didnt have a chance.

Golf GTIs, hate those ****** cars....

I haven't gotten into much excitement other than that C5 I led down the freeway a few weeks back. LMAO the only other thing to challenge me once I got this car was a CTS (not a V). I had driven past him just a mile before, and was sitting at one of those red lights where two lanes merge down to one about 300' after the intersection. He comes up behind me and whips into the right lane. I notice he's NOT turning so immediately it's like "great this ***** wants to try and cut me off". Then he starts revving his engine and I was in disbelief. I just sat there on idle and ignored him. When the light turned green I let him have the hit, probably .5 second head start before I casually sent it. It goes without saying that I won, but what I found amusing about it was that I still had him gapped before he even got through the intersection.

My brother-in-law just picked up a Mercedes C63 AMG with a "stage 2 tune" (whatever that means) and I've been talking a little smack trying to get a race going. If I could beat him and beat my boss's C7 I'd be a happy camper. I need to get off my ass and start spending some money first though.

I must be doing something wrong. I've only had 5 or 6 people race me in the last 5.5 years. I even added a giant gearhead logo to my rear window this spring hoping that would help a little, still nothing. My exhaust is obnoxious sounding too, why don't people want to race me?

Back when I first got my SHO I was on the hunt for pretty much everything. That's why I wanted it....to surprise the shit out of ppl. Here I was LMS Tuned, t Stat, Airaid, plugs, no meth, stock exhaust. Notable was a Subaru STI with suspension, exhaust don't know what else, I started hunting him in traffic....I usually see those cars tailgating the shit out of ppl....so here I am...hunting him down through traffic and then tailgating the shit out of him. He knew what was up. Traffic spread out and he chose the right lane, he was first at the Red light, me sitting behind. You could just sense he was going to floor it...and so I watch the cross traffic light...turn yellow...I anticipate green, brake boost a second....green...he goes I'm already right there...I take left lane and see ya at the top of 2nd I'm already gone. Then when lights and traffic brought us both back together with him behind me, he was done, no more fight left in that guy.

Now I'm still LMS Tuned and catless downpipes now and muffler deletes. I had a V6 Charger see me in traffic, doesn't he come from way back and zoom by me....so I followed him into McDonald's parking lot....asked him you trying to race that thing or what? We talked a little but nothing came of that but I told him to call me if he wants to race. A couple months later I get a text from him, says he's got a buddy with a 500whp STI and if I want to race...I'm like sure. I'm at the gym, so I told him to come by the gym. I'm outside waiting for an STI to show up, well I guess it was supposed to be a surprise...bc there was no STI, it was a Black Charger SRT8, he said it had a Diablo tune and intake, exhaust. I said ok. So we drove to this short highway extension and we decided on a 40 roll....so I'm driving next to him at 40....he starts to slow down even further...I'm like wtf is he doing.....I start slowing down in bewilderment bc we agreed on 40mph...like how did this agreement get screwed up? So I'm slowing down....then he's flashing his headlights at me...like wtf does that mean....wtf is he doing? Mind you we don't need traffic...hello!? So I floor it.....he takes off too....I had the jump but he was 8 or 9 car lengths behind...could never gain on me. After he said he was flashing me to do a 20 roll instead....how would I know that's what that meant? He was like you're fast....I told him let's do it again another time and never heard from him again.

I had a Hyundai Genesis Coupe try me twice, first time he passed me on a twisty road...I was like ok...so then I passed him while he was still getting after it haha....luckily no cars coming in the opposite direction. Next time I saw him again on the same road I attacked the STI...we got to the section it opens up and theres less traffic...I just heard is car as he went WOT and I floored it...bye again...

I had the one Diesel truck puffing black smoke on me leaving the gym, he then slows down around the left turn we're both taking...I knew he was about to floor it and blow smoke on me again so I floored it, missed his smoke and passed him while he was giving it the business....then I put my hands out the window...like what now? He just looked defeated.

I had a Blue Mustang 2017+ swore it said anniversary addition on it...pull up next to me at a double right hand lane turn...I knew what was about to happen....floored it...he's right behind me...but that's where he stayed....lol...and then later we both got on the interstate...I floor it again...he didn't even try...he was done.

After I switched to meth and still on LMS tune, I took some guys for a ride...they wanted a ride in it after installing meth. One guy had a EVO with 468awhp he said...the other with 2012 Audi S4 stage 2 he said ran a 12.6. So I kind of floored it leaving where we were...they were like wow...what was that part throttle...I'm like...uh...I sort of floored it...they were like oh. Then I bring them to that partial highway extension....brake boost launch and ran it to 120mph. They were impressed but the guy with the EVO said...it's definitely faster than my Acura RSX....??? Ok? I said let's go back to the Circ and race in the double lanes...they were like no that's a pretty good incline.....but isn't it an incline for all of us??????? They seemed content with trying to come off like it was quick...but not that fast...but they are too busy to race....ok...

Here Im AJP Turbo tuned, full exhaust. Had a group of kids in a newer Subaru Forester I believe? With the 2.5 turbo? Hovering next to me, windows down, looking at me...speeding up and slowing down....I was in disbelief...I floored it and dusted them. They tried...could hear that aftermarket exhaust working overtime...then they pull up to the next light...2 passengers with hands out the window, thumbs up. Lol!

Last year after my first track outing and getting an 11.89 I was driving home from NH and took a early exit...Idk why I'll listen to what my son recommends sometimes haha...it was the ********* back roads of all time...I said out loud why did I listen to you lol! We came upon a decked out Subaru STI again.....he was about to turn on our road as we went by. So I can hear him catching up to us....great...not really in the mood...so we came up on a car going pretty slow...I figured it was a matter of time so I passed that car, he's right behind...but then I came up on another car....so I passed them....and he couldn't safely pass after that ...and I thought good bc I'm not trying to race on these ****** roads...but I will...but I'd rather not. So turns out we went the wrong way...so we find out way back to the road we wanted....well bc of our speed ...even though we went the long way we made it back to the road he was on...and don't we drive in eye shot of him getting back on the road he's already on, and now here he comes...great...I didn't want to do this...so he gets behind me...I floor it...I must have seen 110 on this road...I'm cringing as my rear tires keep scraping the inner fender liners bc my rear springs are cut...so it's lower and the 1" spacers ...I look in my rear view...at times it looked like the front of his car came off the ground...it was a situation where bc we were going so fast down that road...it was probably better for out cars as we flew over a lot of the dramatic dips in the cracked pavement....I end up letting off and I was done...this road sucks! He also was done then he's pointing for me to pull over. I found a place to pull over...he's like whats done to this thing? I have a lot done to my car and you were pulling away from me! Lol he took pics of my car and everything. We both agreed that road absolutely sucks! He lived down the street. Lol.

Lately I've been just getting revved at from cars passing in the opposite lane.

I have a hard time finding willing competitors. I’ve tangled with your typical WRX and EVO’s, random Chargers, a couple saucy (sounding) GT’s, oh and one Golf...I can’t stand those either. A kid across the street from me just did a big turbo in his. I popped over while he was working on it, just to talk a little smack. I said when he’s done I expect a race. He, looked over to my driveway and said, in what? To which I replied, when you’re done I’ll show you.

I also live in a area where most people know the fuzz is thick, and they don’t play. However, in the few Mexican scuffles I’ve encountered, I’ve only lost one, and badly. That damn GTR. Unbelievably I actually had him from the jump but about halfway through 2nd he evened it up and then it was goodnight SHO.

@High on Ethanol idk if you ever saw my post about that guy in the WRX that called me out and then ran away and tried to start a fight. I was leaving my apartment complex two days ago and saw the same dude again so I yelled to him
I was like hey man why didn't you wanna race
"Oh I had to go home dude"
So then whyd you call me out then run away?
"I didnt call you out"
You yelled at me you don't want none of this then ran away?
At this point his buddy in the passenger seat is busting up laughing so he just finishes turning around and takes off

Get an old harness plug and wire, and dangle that under your rear bumper.

It'll at least get you some action from ricers,

My latest was a trio of 5 and 3 series BMWs. No M3s. All newer, one was dual exhaust so turbo? I don't know my BMWs that will. Anyway, they are doing 85-90 on the interstate, lined up, like that scene from Cars, bobbing and weaving in traffic. I see an opportunity, so I cut in on the next to last car. I KNOW this had to tick them off, lol. Lead car with the dual exhaust (looked after market, had the blued tips) tried to lose me, to no avail. Then the traffic opened up, so I got in the right, slowed to 60 to let them get by, and punched it. Passed them at about 115, or so. They didn't accelerate.

I guess I'm the bully on this one?

Because they don't like to lose. :)

Guy at work has a pretty sweet bi turbo v8 sedan Mercedes. Tuned and is loud as ****. He likes my car too so we went on the side of the runway to see who's was faster and it was literally like racing myself. Same launch. Next to him the whole time past 120mph.
He drove his AMG suv today, gonna see how that compares.

Uncropped pic of both of ours out there now.

I don't know the bmw scene but I take their lunch money and make them watch me eat.

I almost feel bad for their parents.

This brings up a good point.....how do you go about making people want to try to race? I mean I egg on every single exotic....even if there's a cop nearby
