2.4SS+***** > STI
so i was driving home the other night and this dude with HID's was taildating me for like 2 miles down the road to my house from the freeway, there was mass traffic and i was in the center lane... he was pissing me off, so i was looking for a way to get in the other lane without him getting behind me again(im agressive but usually after wiring and ENTIRE house at work i am rpetty passive). so the car to my right turnsd right and i dove into his spot, now mind you im about 5 blocks from my turn, and at my turn was a right turn only lane that ends, and a kid died there one day when somebody cut him off and forced him into an oncoming expedition(damned fords). anyways he followed me into the lane and of course, as 300hp would, caught me hella quick, and i dodged this car turning into subway, by this time im doing like 70 in a 35... he follows and then like 20 feet before i mashed into a curb i cur around this truck and the sti pussed out and didnt make it... hence my title, 2.4+***** beat an STI.... so im gonna add him to my kills since he wasnt man enough to squeeze in behind and keep racing

Yeah....not a kill in my books sorry, but it sounds like you put peoples lives in danger. Everytime I give it a go, I make sure it's pretty clear. When traffic comes up I usually slow down. I have weaved in traffic before but it's really not worth it. However, on a road course, I'd love to be weaving in and out avoiding obstacles.

i have actually seen cars that are tucking like that so i thought it could be lowered that much. then again those were celicas back in arizona so it could be different.

racing in straight lines is no fun... thats why the car comes with sport suspension, to take corners, yes it a photoshop, yes people could get hurt, yes it was reckless but dude, thats why i posted it, next time i guess ill just post a play by play of my commute home where i hit the cruise at 63 and sit in the second lane from the left.... that will be fun, i thjink i will and then you guys can be like "wow, you sure are a safe driver, allstate would love you, pat on the back for driving your sporty car like a mercury towncar"

commute home
so today i got off early, around noonish.... entered the onramp at the posted 40 mph, then i accelerated to the posted limit of 60 and set my cruise controll computer in my car to a daring 62 mph... man im a racing fool.... then i sat there with my hands at ten and two and my chair 90 degrees from the floor, maintaining perfect posture and controll of my vehicle at all times, after about 5 miles i was craving a drink, and i knew i had a bottle of crystal glacier water in teh cup holder, i remember your words of how my driving was too dangerous so i resisted drinking while driving... i exited the freeway after my 25 mile commute and decelerated to the posted 40mph, then again to the following 35mph posted speed, i maintained great lane position and signalled at every turn... parking my car within the legal 16 inches from the curb i checked my mirror, and exited my vehicle, setting hte parking brake and leaving it in forst gear with my tires turned toward the curb. here i am now, telling you the story i know you all wanted to hear after the kicks in the teeth for 'reckless endangerment' the other day, goodbye and good riddance

You can't get mad at people for telling you how dumb that type of driving is. But then again... it usually takes an accident to open the eyes of people that drive like this.
