To pickups have gotten board with me but now I a-holes in euro trash cars annoying. I think they try and race cars they know they are faster than because it helps to make their big head bigger.

On the way home from work yesterday I had some guy in a Z4 fly past me. The guy in the Z4 thought he was so cool at the next light that he was laughing at me. I was going to tell him he spent way to much on that euro trash POS. I didn't want to make him cry though. If he thought about the fact that I have a quarder into my car of what he spent on his and was almost as fast as him. I wasn't even racing him, I was passing a car going up the hill by UCCS and he was behind me. He then flew around me and passed me.

Just a week ago I had a guy do a ricer flyby in a new Mercedes.

Yeah, Euro-snobs piss me off. Arrogant.

I won't be responding to any challenges anytime soon. Cops are everywhere on our side of town right now, thanks to that accident and the gang shootings. Just nice and easy everywhere for me.

Didn't help that there were deputies in tactical gear along Marksheffel yesterday. And on horseback, in a Dodge Magnum, pickups...all searching for evidence in that gang shooting. SKEERED me.

I have had quite a few EURO challenges (on HWY 115). Z3 a couple of weeks ago (cut me off). Ended up beating him from a stop light all the way through 3d.

I tried to catch somone in an S6 one time and failed, lol! He was ahead of me and I gunned it but could not catch up.

Then there are the A4's and Bimmers who always want to show off. Have beat quite a few of them... Hopefully spoiling their day :)

The shooting was at Claremont Ranch. Constitution and Marksheffel. On Sunday, I believe. 20-25 shots fired, two people hit. Bloods versus Crips, apparently.

It's getting WAY too close to our neighborhoods, IMHO.

RS4's are NA. The RS6 is a turbo V8, or V10 if it's a brand new one, but I haven't seen one of those on the road yet.
