Is the R34 still racing I heard 8 months back he would go out by 802 way out there to race.
I haven't had the chance to see him in action.

The last time I saw it some guy in his early 20's i would guess, with long hair was driving it into pep boys. I tried getting some shots but when he saw the camera he got in the car and peeled out as soon as he could

I usually shake my head and give them a dismissive wave of my hand like "get away from me".

That usually bothers them as much as getting their doors blown off. They know they are not worthy, so when you confirm it... it really hurts. It's also safer for my license than showing them I can put bus lengths on their POS at will.

It's a white 2 door Yukon, it's loud when you give it some throttle but it sounds kinda raspy.

I'm asking cause I met one today on the road.
He was cutting in and out of traffic including invading the lane of a dodge ram pickup that was switching lanes almost getting himself rammed off the road.
Then he was revving his annoying fart can at every car that went past him. So I was ok two can play this game.
I slowly crept up next to him and waited for him to start revving his engine. Then once I reached the 30 I got off the throttle completely and as soon as the truck started slowing down I just tapped the throttle a little past 1/2 and let go. That's when he heard the sound of the TBI 350 with a mild cam and open headers. The look on his face was that of "WTH was that?!!". I started slowing down to turn into the bank and the whole way he kept on turning looking at the truck and looking at me. I just kept my eyes on the road and kept on going.
So what do you guys do when you spot a ricer being stupid on the road?
a V8

It was our beater truck which we would take to ride the dirt trails outside of matamoros. We went by the caminos de salitre over there and we took it along the banks of the Rio Grande a few times. Thru the SPI, boca chica, and playa baghdad beaches. Then once on dia de los muertos on our way to the graveyard we sank it in like 3-4ft of mud.

I don't get this as much in my C5, but when I still had my SS, I would get ricers trying to race or "show off" regularly. I had this one WRX (most of which I really do like for the most part) that had a really loud BOV and kept making it a point to do it over and over by my open window. I had a QTP in place of the Borla plates, so I just opened it up and the next time he came up to my window, dropped in neutral and drowned him out completely. For some reason, he decided to change lanes after that.

Another time, I had a guy in an SRT4 that just kept wanting to run (this was before the current street racing laws were in effect btw) and obviously didn't notice my DR's. We had been cruising around for a while, so they were nice and warm when we got caught at a light. I had a 3600 stall at the time and knew just how to launch it and I don't think he had finished spinning his front tires before I had about 1.5 cars on him. He immediately u-turned and didn't seem so interested in following me after that. LOL
