WRX is embarrased
I'm in my Dad's C6 going to drop it off and pick mine up (just got all my work done). I go into the empty right lane of a 3 lane street so I can jump out a bit and go left lane to get on the Tollway to avoid the 5 slow cars already there. Didn't pay any attention that I pulled up beside a WRX in the middle lane with apparently the same play in mind.
This car has a fairly aggressive cam and bullets, so it's not quiet and rocks like a baby in a cradle at the light (puts down 450rwhp), plus it has Lingenfelter badges on the fender, but that doesn't deter Mr. 4 ft. wing WRX guy who looks over and gives me a go ahead point.
We both rolled off the light and he punches it, with me following from 2000rpm in 1st. Got to 100mph before I shut down for the next light, redlined 1st and 2nd and short-shifted 3rd at 80, and I had plenty of time and space (4-5 cars) to leisurely flip on the blinker and cross in front of dumbass who was still under full throttle and slammed on the brakes on my right side at the light. Threw him a thumb, no response. I ease onto the Tollway with him behind me now (in 5th at 60mph), and off the little fellow goes 90mph flyby cutting off all the oncoming cars.
No doubt it was stock and the driver was a little dick (in all respects). Not downing the car, just the driver (and maybe that f'ing obnoxious spoiler a little bit...Boeing called, and they need their 747 wings back).

No kidding. Its no shame to loose to a faster car like that, but to be surprised or pissed off is pretty weird. Though if he was only 5 or 6 cars back ast 100 on a 450WHP C6, he was probably decently modded. Maybe he was pissed because he thought he was against a Cat-back C6 or something?
Lifes too short to be that insecure. Nice kill. Go find something challenging LOL.

He was that far back when I hit a 100 and I shifted 3rd at about 5200rpm . I gave up at about 80 when I shifted...but he was still coming with something to prove (good brakes I guess) .
I don't mind losing to faster cars...don't care what they are, and I'm always ready to talk and give props, but I could tell he was going to be an *** on the entrance ramp, so I just let him swerve across 4 lanes and **** off 3 other drivers. Didn't even give me the finger for my troubles.
Off to more meaningful exploits!

Yeah I would say he was modded. My friends TT C5 beat me by more then 5 cars, he's got 482rwhp and I'm not stock. But then again we ran above 120mph.
Good kill.. Too bad the guy couldn't take his medicine like a man and give a way back.

If I had kept pulling through 2nd to redline and into 3rd, he would have started to see Star Trek lights. I respect all kinds of cars (except extreme fast and furious versions), just don't get the attitude some people have, especially those that initiate the race then go ******* when they lose. Oh well, bet I get my lane change unchallenged next time!
I knew when he locked down the brakes beside me I was in for a crazy *** flyby on the ramp.

Yeah, I loved the flyby. Didn't care so much he did it to me, but to cut across a 4 lane toll road with people already flying. He cut over the "no cross-over lines" by at least 3 car lengths to do his flyby. I wasn't even out of that zone yet.
Ah well. See you guys on the road and be safe!

I'll probably have my black Vette there this Monday (if work cooperates)!
I'm always a little turned off with all the 14 year olds running around...something stupid is bound to happen.
I used to go to this meet (before Addison) and it got ran off from there, then from Addison, just a matter of weeks before it happens again.
Wish there were some really good muscle car meets around...less rice and Toyota Higlanders with 4 12's . Some idiot parked beside us and his stereo kept setting off his own alarm. Ultra-cool.
