It's just that my previous cars were a Nissan pick-up, Expedition, and a Camry and I never had anyone entice me to street race, nor have I ever street raced so I was just kind of shocked by the whole thing. I was just trying to change lanes so I could get off at the next exit and get to work and this dumbass nearly caused an accident, so I really didn't give a **** what he was driving unless it was a police car.

Hey, I bought my car 'cause I like to drive it. The WRX STI looks like a fast car too, and if I had one I'm sure I'd be proud of it too. But I don't need to street race to prove I like my car.
A few months ago I almost got run over by two Evo's racing on the freeway. They came down the left lane, side by side. That's right, both of them side by side in the left lane, except for when they were cutting each other off, running on the left shoulder, or jumping two lanes to the right to get around another car. I slowed waaay down, got over to the right, and prayed I wouldn't get caught in whatever accident they were going to cause. I'm just glad nothing happened.
I guess my point is, street racing seems dumb and pointless no matter how you look at it.

Driving home tonight with the family in the Expedition, full of Christmas presents from my folks house, and almost slammed into by some dumbass in a tricked out Integra with fart cans, scared the hell out of everyone when he comes flying up behind me going at least 100.
Grrrrrr....

I just rev up the PSE and they realize I'm not impressed with their fart can potato shooting muffler. At that point I usually get a "whoa, that is a sweet exhaust man" and the obligatroy thumps up or peace sign and we go our merry way.
