Here I Go!!!! Extra, Extra! Read all about it...... Two for one special!!!!
Driving north on the Bronx pky Near Scarsdale when I see this RX8 in my rear view... The light turns green and I let him pass me.... As soon as he saw my car he guns it. I follow weaving through traffic, taking the corners at about 110 mph. He takes the outside I take the inside corners.... At one corner I almost loose it, the rear of my FD gets a little sideways... At 110 mph going sideways on a corner....... That got me spooked!
Further up I catch him and then we both reduce speed for the straight away.... Three honks and we both down shift and gun it..... 2nd gear I got one car. 3rd gear I got two cars.. By 4th gear I got like 3 1/2 car lengths on him.... This is where I hit the brakes and he passes..... He says nothing... I press my horn out of good sportsmanship he does nothing, he just drives off with his shattered dream!
I guess he thought that the RX8 is faster than RX7 because of the higher number...lol
Driving north on Central ave this STI is pacing me at about 30 mph.... 3 honks we go! I down shift 2nd and then through 3rd by the time it was over I pulled 1 car length..... I press the brakes for the up coming light.... At the light he rolls down his window and says. "Nice car, any mods." I say thanks and no I don't, only 27,000 original miles stock... He nods his head in approval and raises his eyebrows .... Then he dies!

I wove through the traffic to get to him..... When the traffic was behind us, we hit 110... There was no one near us at that point. Only the juicy guard rail......
Oh, E.N ..... One more thing..... You are being irresponsible for Flaming on this Thread / forum!

I don't even care how fast you were actually going. Anyone who weaves through traffic while they're racing is a complete dumbass. You never know who's going to switch lanes and when, and when you hit someone it's all your ******* fault. There's nothing irresponsible whatsoever about me telling you what a complete moron you were. People like you are the ones that give the performance world a bad name, because people like you are the ones that cause accidents and kill people. You deserve every single flame you get from me and everyone else after me.
Go ahead and try to justify your stupidity to yourself all you want, but you'll see that nobody else really gives a damn.

1. Street racing is dangerous, illegal, and depending on the circumstances, irresponsible.
2. If you have a problem with street racing, GET THE **** OUT OF THE "KILLS" SECTION!!!!!

hell no it's not reasonable at all. you'd have to be a little fu#*ed up to do it,but it's possible. it's a two lane parkway... not that wide in case of a mistake.

110 around the bronx river? dwayne, you're nuts
yes it's possible to do, but you've gotta be really into it to go that fast on that highway...did you get to the area near white plains with the white barriers?
good kills, RX7UP
also...what color was the STI? was it a blue one, half debadged on the back, with an early 20s, white, driver?

It's a great 2 lane parkway that should be a place to test exotics on or a great road to film a car commercial, I recommend you drive it someday.....
Oh...... One more thing.... I almost lost It because I was driving about 20 mph faster than the RX8 driver in order to catch up to him.... Remember that "I let him pass me," in my original story..... All in all, I had fun......

*PS. I also believe that the RX8 is a "decent" sports car
