attack of the late 80's JDM sports cars
Driving home from Los Gatos tonight on 680 North with my wife in the car and my mother-in-law following us, I was assaulted and instigated on by 3...count em...3!...late 80's Japanese sports cars all within a 25 mile span. The first car was a 2nd generation RX-7...the one with the dual exhaust.
 Not sure what, if anything, was done to it. My exhuast drowns out most outside noise except for things like thunder, gunfire and IED's. The a-hole RX-7 driver was riding my ass in the #2 lane at about an 85mph clip. There was no trafffic in the #1 lane so obviously he was trying to bait me or simply piss me off into a street race. After riding my ass for about 5 minutes and waking up my sleeping wife with his headlights, I was ready to embarrass this clown. He swerves around and pulls up next to me, puts his right hand in the shape of V and looks at me and laughs. The only thing I could guess that meant was that he was calling me a pussy. Um-k. So he lurches forward real quickly a couple times and then shakes his head again and goes flying off. I didn't even drop it into 4th. I kept it in 5th and at about 3,200RPM's I put the pedal to the metal. In a blink of an eye I was pacing him and by 100mph I was starting to pull. I shut down at 120mph with a full car length between our cars. He dropped back and was never to be seen again. I'd probably do the same thing if I got the jump, but ended up losing about 5 car lengths from 80-120mph. For him to have instigated a race like that he must have thought I wasn't driving an Evo. Without the spoiler on my car and that loud exhaust I can understand how he could have mistaken me for some sort of ricer...although the exhaust note is distinctly different from any NA 4 banger I've ever heard. So anyways by this point my mother-in-law is no where to be found. Soon after the cell phone rings and it's her. She says she's about a mile back and then she tells my wife to smack me for racing then to congratulate me for abusing that dork in the RX-7.  The second car that pulls up next me must have saw the first race and been drawn-in like a bug to a light because he was next to me before my wife hung up the phone. Another blast from the past. It's a POS late 80's 300ZX and it sounded and looked like a wheel or a door could fall off at any second.  I didn't even look at the guy as he was revving at me. I just gave it one quick rev and then gunned it again. At about 110mph I looked in the rear view and saw a single headlight about 1/4 mile back. Gas is too expensive for that kind of stuff.  The last car that tried to get my attention was about a block from my house. My wife wanted an ice-cream cone so we stopped at the local Baskin Robbins and as we're leaving there's this Russian kid...maybe 16 or 17...looking at my car from the seat of his LIME FUCKING GREEN Honda Del Sol.  He's blocking me in. My wife says "not again" and gets into the car. Yuri asks me if it's my car and I say yeah. Of course what comes next is predictable question from all teenie ricer noobs..."are those rims stock?" I tell him yeah and in what could have been right out of the Ukranian version of 2F2F he says in a low voice "I'll blow those rims off your car". It took everything not to laugh in his face. I told him no thanks...too many tickets...and he said "whatever dog", revved his shitbox coffee can exhaust and sped off. Right away my wife is like "I thought he was waiting for somebody in Baskins Robbins at first...I think that somebody was you". All in all a very interesting night. I'm lucky to get 1 person per month instigating a race with me...much less 3 in one night. Just goes to prove that you should always take quality over quantity.

Re: attack of the late 80's JDM sports cars
 Del Sols were early 90s cars.  Good jorb! on the Rx-7 though...

Re: attack of the late 80's JDM sports cars

Re: attack of the late 80's JDM sports cars
be careful about the del sol, especially if its the vtec, remember del sols only weigh about 2100-2200 lbs and with the vtec rated @ 160 hp plus a lil turbo like yours, he probably be running with ya, oh yea, what do you drive? i'm a lil confuse, you have a srt4 in your profile but an evo viii sig? or do you own both of them? rich basterd.......

Del Sols are HEAVIER than Civic 4 doors. That t-top requires bracing for the rest of the car, so it doesn't flex with every turn. This is also why convertibles and cars with moonroofs are heavier than fixed-roof coupes. Even if it DID weigh in at 2000 lbs, 160HP and 111TQ will NOT worry any Evo owner. You deserve your name.

Piece of crap 300ZX eh? sounded like the door where gonna fall off? and he was dumb enough to rev at you? hhhhhhmmmmmmm, sounds Rocker went for a little drive and ran into you Steiner. good job on the kills.
the guy in the delslow was the best though. blow your rims off!  I started keeping a camera in my car for when stuff like that happens. so far I only got one though of me smoking a civic from a standing two car lead. ( i gave the lead to the civic obviously) but nothing worth posting. people are affraid when they realize thier face might show up all over the web getting smoked. good story telling too, very visual. Nice

Oh, but then he could just run a 500 shot of NAAWWSSS and blow the rims right back onto his car!  Seriously, why even bother posting crap like that? Nice 'races' Steiner.
