Get this all the time if im out putting some miles on the rally car between events or trying new parts/settings etc. Very annoying cos it seems almost anyone in any type of car fancies a go, im assuming they think cos its a rally car the driver must drive like hes on a rally all the time.
I just let them get on with it and carry on minding my own business.

 

I like your style.SJ.

 

I'm not totally convinced it's all about racing; I think they just drive that way chopping and changing lanes to try to get ahead of anyone.

I have a Spec D and had a prat the other night. Wanted to cut in but I tend to follow the Highway Code and always zip merge so he sat on my bumper until I showed him my brake lights. Another set of lights and I took the less used inside lane. He started in the outside, saw I was moving forward so jumped to the inside then, when close, he jumped into a tiny gap on the outside to try to get alongside. I blipped my way past the guy he was following leaving him stuck. It continued for several miles like that until he turned off. It was good fun really, just like racing when you have someone close behind you and you are watching your mirrors to see where they are.

Just to be clear, I wasn't racing, just positioning my car

 

i slipped on a nana once, it wasnt funny.......

 

I was once making progress and overtook a Merc. He then decided that we should race and proceeded to follow me about a foot from my bumper. I could have pressed on a bit faster, but I wasn't interested. He waited until the duel carriage way 5 miles up the road before showing me who was the boss. He overtook and disappeared like a scolded cat only to brake harshly after a double flash from a fixed speed camera. Numpty.

 

Exactly what i think , wouldnt matter what you were driving.

 

Just you watch out for that Captain Hook, and i just love you in that little green suit

 

This, I think is the most likely but its amazing how people interpret situations and make up little stories in their head.

 

You are a sad little individual... Go back to your cartoons

 

Awesome...

 

Is that Michael or Michelle?

 

Well all i can say is that the rally decals on my car must be a great disguise as i reckon that it is less than a dozen people that have genuinely tried to "Race" in the 6 years that i have owned the Impreza

i have probably had more people ask me to rev the engine at the lights so that they can hear the car...

yeah you get people that set off in a hurry at the lights...i have this no matter what I'm driving...maybe people just notice it more when they are in their impreza's?

i know when i used to drive the company pool cars around we used to launch them off every set of lights...using the TC as a primitive launch control....Clutch in...foot flat to the floor...just dump the clutch and sit back as the electrics try and work out WTF you are trying to achieve...not trying to race anyone...just trying to lighten up an other wise boring commute

 

they are probably too busy laughing at your chav mobile covered in stickers and the tears of laughter are preventing them from racing

 

you're probably right

perhaps all those that have complained of people racing them on this thread should follow suit

 

maybe your sticker kit makes them think your car is an actual race car

 

The stickers do make it a race car don't they

That was the only reason i brought it

The seller told me "its 600 Brake mate, init" "Waste Fezza and Lambo's all day long" "its well fast init"

That was the only reason I brought it

I'm glad that other road user think its a race car too

Please don't shatter my dream and tell that they don't make it a race car

 

sorry to burst the bubble mate but you look like a bellend, has it got the other bellend accesories of fake roof vent and name on rear window like "ken ****"?

 

but my name is Ken ****...whats wrong with putting my name on the rear windows

 

wel tbh if you have wrc stickers you may as well have the word "****" on your rear window

 

Enjoyed the banter
