Insecure car enthusiasts?

[lolcantturn]

Specifically the majority of Honda owners? I was driving home on I95N yesterday, and there were two big meets, one being Blown Euros and the other being Street wars. Lots of "car enthusiasts" on the road needless to say, and lots of ridiculous traffic. Anyway, in stop and go traffic, I was side by side with a newer Civic Si. I didn't really acknowledge him at all, I just knew he was there. I just kept myself in first gear and I was getting pretty tired so I didn't shift into second much at all (whenever I had the chance anyway, traffic was terrible). So I probably went 20mph with my engine whaling in first gear and this Honda owner apparently took it as a challenger appears. He immediately rolled down his window, looked like the ULTIMATE tool, looked at me straight in the eye with the angriest face, and bounced off the limiter for probably 5 seconds....It was embarrassing. I kept minding my own business. He actually looked a lot like this:


Then traffic finally eased up, and the ultimate riced out Honda CRX HF appears right next to me, they must have all come from a meet somewhere. He gives me the awkward "Lets race" signal, with him, and about 4 other passengers in his car....Yuck.

WTF? :|

They have something to prove with their shitty cheap tuna can cars..

I mean there are some pretty respectable Honda owners out there. I try to keep an "open mind" about not automatically labeling a Honda owner a fucking waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles, but damn it's hard.

if you replaced all honda references in your story with E46/E92 M3 owners, it'd still make sense

All I know with my experience with E46/E92 M3 owners is that they don't acknowledge E30's at all hahaha. E36 M3 guys are pretty cool, lots of thumb's up exchanged between them.

Just wanted to see what it'd look like aha. It works for the most part.

Specifically the majority of new BMW owners? I was driving home on I95N yesterday, and there were two big meets, one being Blown Euros and the other being Street wars.

^ or late-model mustang owners, or bro-truck owners, or flatbillhatsaggypants subaru owners..

You should've revved it, put it in third, and when the light turned green, dropped the clutch.

They would've had something to feel good about.

You could've made a difference in their lives, man.

Ehh, back in FL all my friends owned Tegs or civics, and they have the 'HONDAS THE BEST EVARRR MINE BEAATS URSSS" attitude.. One of my friends who is a girl and is really into her civic, called my e30 a "mom car"...

Truth.

I think your biggest problems is that you went to shitty car shows to begin with. You pretty much ask for that shit when you go to douchebag enthusiast car shows like that.
"Street Wars"... isnt that in Fast and the Furious? lol

In my experience bro truck owners are the worst by far. To me the cheaper the car is the more they have to prove. Sti and m3 owners just drive around like they're better than you, but not reving everywhere.

A CRX with 4 passengers?

Bro truck owners are, when I had my Audi I would always have large trucks trying to race me, never any Hondas or rice cars except for a blinged out Dodge Stratus. I honestly don't get it because when I think of a race car, I think of 6'' lifts with 35's for maximum traction yo!

I'm not too sure if an RB34DET E30 would show up at a shitty car show ;)
