I don't mess with people on highways or anything like that, but nothing is more than cursing through the twisties with some sort of fwd tuner or american muscle behind you. You are just having a sunday spirited drive, while in your rear view their car is skipping all over the road trying to stay composed.

When I first bought mine I couldn't help but spin the tires. But that was because they were bald. I still remember that first ride in the rain and I couldn't keep the tires on the ground.

Once I bought new tires, I found it difficult to spin the tires. I was and probably still am not an expert manual driver, but it took some practice as the new tires were so grippy.

Screw you spell check. Grippy is a word!

The best one I had was when this kid with his gf and buddy in the back seat pulled up beside me at a busy light... i kept reving the engine and so did he... I was looking at him the entire time and I could see out of the corner of my eye traffic in my lane moving so I took off.... he saw me taking off so for some dumb reason he hit the gas and drove straight into the car in front of him!! hahaha... i could hear a huge BANG and knew right away the idiot slammed into the car in front. Hopefully that will have solved his dumb driving....
