Default People gets funny when they see an R!

I have gone to merge into highway in Jersey (Rt.95N) and some women in an big domestic sedan don't give room, so of course I reacted with punching out 3rd gear to fourth and the backed off once i am way off in the distance. Now I am just cruising at near 80's. On the parallel highway towards my right, separated by guard rail which goes toward NYC, Kids in a white Integra stickered up were all excited driving next to me and hope we merge together but I have merge into Rt. 80W and they have gone to GW Bridge. If you saw their both faces, u laugh also.

I used to look at type Rs and say wow (when I was driving my gsr) but now that I have an R I hardly notice anyone looking at my car .. stealthy goodness

mainly people just see another car. the ones who notice are the ricers, and they just give me a damn dirty look.


envy is a great compliment, even though i'm not one of those 'high and mighty' R owners

well funny you should say that.... while ago i was at a 4 way like, big intersection. I wa in the turn lane, and a ricer in a orange teg with chromes and lots of blue lights pulled up in a turn lane perpendicular to me. He then proceeded to get out of his car, and wave like crazy at me....I turned like usual, he busted a U-turn and started messin with me. next stoplight was an entrance to a highway, and my passenger asked if he wanted to run, guy was like sure. I rolled his *** pretty damn good (street racing is bad though). he followed us a little bit, i stopped, he asked what i was running, i told him and asked what he had, "spray" was his answer. the 3 girls in his car would have gotten in mine if i had asked them too

My ma drives a big Yukon Denali. But whenever she sees a type r she calls me and describes it to me, with excitement in her voice. So not all domestic lady drivers are the same...
