Default 2012 STi kill

Cruising around the highway and I see a new 2012 STi about to merge..

right as he's next to me, he nails it and I let him get the jump for about a second.. I then mash on it@40mph, the boost kicks in and I immediately stop his pull..

I put about 4-5 cars on him in next to no time. I slow down.

If that wasn't enough, he then get's into my lane and tails me!

I mash on it again with him in pursuit.. same outcome.

I then let him get next to me.. nail it again, right at 60-130ish..

same result but with a much larger margin. We approach a friggin' VW bus/van looking thing at about 20 car lengths ahead, and I slow down to a snails pace (assuming he would as well), what happens?


He cuts me off, get's in my lane and then cuts off the van and what looked like 130+mph... WTF?! I was surprised he could even slow down considering that he was now approaching upcoming traffic VERY quickly.

I was expecting the sucker to wreck.. no joke.

Geez, gotta watch out whom you run nowadays.. I thought it was all for fun, not a friggin' death race.

I am guessing he thought I'd be an easy target considering I look pretty much stock.. no loud exhaust, no louvers, fancy rims, decals, spoiler etc.

could have just been in a hurry and was getting above the speed traffic was going for an easy merge... so when you started playing he got pissed

just my initial thought

..nope.. pretty sure he was racing.. he was merging slowly right up until he seen me in the GT

It was a 2011.. my bad. It was the new style, I just assumed it was the next years model..

Good run, those cars are pretty quick. Gotta watch out for d-bags like that though, best thing to do is go ahead and shut it down the second you see that they're going to turn into Vin Diesel.

Yeah, you never know about some people rofl

It's not like it was slow or anything.. when he did that fly by, it looked pretty damn quick.. either that or it was because I was at 40mph lol

Nice ride..that the new project?
