Made me think of this: "You wanna go, bro!" "Nice to meet you, go get 'em tiger!"



(My first thought is always...no, I'm not 13 years old LOL.)

OK, Bobbie, if you say so. Be careful out there.

You sure this wasn't a National Lampoon movie? 🤣

I used to get challenged all the time in my 928 GTS. It was lowered with big fat tires and looked good. For some reason it was always pickup trucks. I do live in Texas however. What I would do is hit the gas and immediately let up as they raced by. I would then say to myself "Okay you won." But by then they were well ahead of me and no longer a problem and they thought they just beat a Porsche.

Some of those kids will grow up to be forum members here, and I was one of those kids and I bet many here were as well. I remember putting playing cars in bicycle spokes for a little sound - how many here did that? Unfortunately more kids these days care more about Facebook, etc. than cars.
I did that too!!

Happens to me in my ‘91GT. I just point to the boost gauge on the A-pillar. 100% of the time, so far, racer-boy turns head back to stare straight ahead and then goes normally about his business.

This commercial has been the bane of my wife's existence lately lol... Any time we're riding together and at a stop light, I usually pull this act. I still think it's funny lol.

I get that a LOT in back in the 987.2S....and the BMW Z4M.....and is ALWAYS random fart cans (ie RX-7/8, 350Z, G37s, Civics, WRX, Gold Rs etc etc.) granted yes some of these can be pretty quick when tricked out with a big a$$ blow dryer etc.

noone would pick on the V10 M6 and only once in the 911

Yeah, I can vouch for the drivers here in Cali that think the turn signal is just for decoration in a car. You forgot to mention the hordes of idiotic Lift/Uber drivers that either doesn't know how to freaking driver, refuse to follow any driver rules, or feel it doesn't pertain to them. Also, all the Prius and Camry drivers that feel that they should police the road, driving 50 mph on the fast lane and not caring that tons of people are either flashing them to move or getting cut off purposely to give the idea that they are moving at a snail's pace and endangering the rest of the drivers on the road with their antics. You can't also forget about the hoods that drive around the freeways like they're mad max, driving laws don't pertain to them as they just go 100mph through crowded freeways cutting and veering through the lanes without care for others peoples safety.

Not sure if he noticed, but I sure had a good laugh at it.
One summer evening when I was in high school, a candy red '67 Mustang pulled into a gas station. I gotta say, it was a nicely restored eye candy for sure. In the passenger seat was what appeared to be his trophy Barbie girl friend. Everyone was staring at this Mustang and of course, his trophy. It was pretty obvious this dude was soaking it all in. As he was leaving the gas station, he does a burn out and shortly thereafter, the entire rear axle separated from the car. It was like a seen in a movie. My buddies and I fell to the ground in uncontrollable laughter and almost pissed in my pants. I'll never forget.
