Default Dang ricer!

So I was doing some spirited driving on the Streets when I see this Civic up ahead with this loud angry bees sound exhaust. He sees me in his rearview mirror and tries to outrun me. He was oversteering all around the turns. I didn't trust him so I kept my distance. I found an open opportunity and passed him.

I don't like tailgating at driving events unless I know the skill of the driver. He was pretty good though.

Nothing wrong with a Civic. They can be fixed up to be decently fun track vehicles. Speaking of the track at least it's there instead of rolling up to you on the street and revving at you. What more can you ask for? I thought "ricers" didn't go to the track.

Yea I actually wouldnt mind seeing a civic at a road course rather than at a drag strip. At least he was out of the norm for ricers and pushed the limits of his car.

I've seen a 7th gen civic run with a wrx on a track before.....if setup correctly they do well. That one just sounded kinda Uncle Ben'ish. I too am gald to see the guy at least trying on a track instead of being an idiot on the road.
