"Which Speedtech exhaust did you get? Looking forward to hearing how you like it."

I got the 2.5 Xflow Quiet. Should have it back this afternoon and will post some thoughts on it this weekend.

My car looks just too slow; no one wants to race me most of the times (exept for those Prius).

I ride my sport bike most days and typically don't bother anymore. Every once in a while, I'll still play but there aren't many cars on the road that are faster than the bike.

Ran a ZL1 Camaro (580hp) one night. I was suprised at how hard I pulled him in 3rd. I let out in 4th (since my stock clutch slipped a little when I shifted).

We pulled into a gas station afterwards and talked a little.

This was the conversation.

ZL1: At least tell me that is a Turbo.

ME: It is and it's not stock.

ZL1: Well, that makes me feel a whole lot better.



Later, Steve

Oh yeah… I ran this old Asian lady on the toll road. She thought she had something for me but she found out otherwise. LMFAO Her 92 Camry had nothing for me. hahaha
I get all the women trying to go faster than me. They pull up next to me, give me a look and speed up. As soon as they get few car lengths ahead they slow back down. Just to mess with them I speed up a bit and get half a car length ahead and there they go again. They just want to be ahead I guess. The one that gets on my nerves is when someone speeds up, gets around you, in front of you then they slow down. You pass them and they do it all over again. Annoying right??

Excellent Thread. I constantly try not to intimidate anybody on the street and try maximum restrain on myself. I know for sure nothing matches to 996 TT on the steet which probably the other drivers don't know, don't wanna push any one in danger. Despite that, every now and then I lose control on myself. Yesterday I passed a Camry at 104 mph, he increased to ~90mph when I was passing him. I quickly reduced speed and let it go. Enjoy the constant curious look from other drivers on the street.

I never have that problem; when I speed up there is no "they get in front and slow down"!!!

An older lady in a TTRS was riding all up in my jammy. Came around the on ramp, truck on the right car in front. Room opened up between the truck and car she pulls out and honks on it, big puff of carbon out the exhaust. I think "I'm an equal opportunity racer, i'll treat the ladies the same" (heart of gold they say..) and I dump two gears and just roll on it in 4th. Didn't take long to catch and blow by.

TTRS is a surprisingly fast car for what it is, but not fast enough. Never miss an opportunity to show somebody either Now if I can only find that Continental GT that smoked my BWM last year I'd be set...
