ok guys check this out. It was 4am. I had trouble sleeping that summer 
. I ve decided to go to MC to get some grub as my fridge was empty and that was the only place open around me at that time. So I M on my way there and stop at the lights. Its red of course and a bmw 750il pulls next to me. He obviously wants to race me and he even does a small burnout. I m pretty tempted to race him at this point as there is no one on the street at this hour but at the last minute I decide not to. He does another burnout but this time he stops in the middle of the intersection and a cop appears out of the corner behind us!!. And yep u guess it. He pulled over the 750il and I just left to get myself a quarter pounder :D lol ... the best part is that on my way back from MC, they were still there and I just passed them on my way home. man that guy in 750il must have been pissed :D I loled so hard though.

It's happened to me about 4 times since I've gotten the car. Someone once dangerously swerved in front of me to show off. I have no interest in racing my car in particular, I mean for Christ's sake it's an automatic haha.

Man, most of you guys are good. Usually, I will shake my head at them; but there are days I will show out, too--99% of people stop racing after I go above 100 mph (if I know they have a 400+hp engine then i won't race). Which I DO NOT recommend: it is immature and irresponsible, dangerous and stupid!

Read the rules much?
https://www.rx8club.com/faq.php?faq=...q_user_conduct
15. We do not have a street racing or "kills" forum on this site, and threads or posts about street racing will not be tolerated. These types of posts inevitably turn into flamewars, which nobody wins. Also, any forum member caught trolling and intentionally instigating a flame war on any other auto enthusiast forum gets an immediate 1-week ban; protesting this action results in a permanent ban.
