I Guess My Car Looks Fast?

Okay, well, I was driving back to the Bay from Sacramento today. I was passing through Vacaville and chugging along in the third lane doing 60mph, when a black non MR EVO VIII with an exhaust (canister style), dark tint all the way around, and a BOV passes me doing about 65-70 mph. Driver slows down, and matches my speed right next to me in the slow lane. He gases it enough to set off the BOV. I mind my own business and don't respond. He does it two more times. I finally look (not like I can see anything) and it's raining. Anyway, I ignore the challenge, and keep chugging along. Next thing I know is the driver lowers his window partially and gives me a thumbs down, and exits...anyway, I would think EVO owners know about cars, so I would think the driver would have known that he has almost 3 times as much hp as our cars, and is AWD compared to FWD. So why would he even challenge me in the first place? I would have gotten my ass kicked from the get-go. It was also raining, and I don't street race anyway.

hahaha ... most evo and sti owners don't know krud about cars ... they just buy the car because it's AWD and it stock turbo and etc ... they swear like they are the fastest cars on the face of the earth ... its all about the drivers, i'm pretty positive with the right suspension setup, you can whoop on any evo/sti in a touge battle, just not in the straight lines ... HAHA

I wouldn't even worry about it. Let the little penis baby have his bottle

IMO you've earn the right to return the (possibly with a bird up) when you see him on the side of the road standing next to his totaled "Tokyo Drift" Evo, which should be quite soon with the way he's acting...

Exactly, most of those guys are "compensating;" and anyone who would "challenge" a Yaris must be completely dickless!

I would've returned the 'thumbs down' with a , and ya did the right thing but not succumbing to the taunt.

Oh, and I think I've told you before, but your car does look sharp! I am sure it was more jealousy than anything else that bruised his little ego, your car is so much better looking that his...hence the "challenge" to restore his little "pride"...

Cheers! M2

I'm glad to did the right thing and ignored his taunts. Making that choice probably saved your car from an accident and saved you your life.

Yeah, why risk damaging my car, hurting others, and getting my car impounded for such a stupid reason. I'm sure he has several street racing tickets by the way he is.

I hate people like that. People here in OK are all like that. If they have something fast they'll challenge anything at a stop light and anything that looks cool driving except the other fast cars. You never see Corvettes racing Sti's or anything interesting like that just Ridiculous Mustangs raping Hondas...

I can't wait for the day that EVO driver gets his ass handed to him by a Yaris or a Honda. That'll be hilarious!

come to think of it... he might have seen the vortex generator and thought since you wanted to be an Evo, you'd want to race against one

Not really trying to be an EVO, but just trying to be different

He probably lost a race to another Yaris previously, because he doesn't know how to shift properly.
