what the hell was that?

so i was just driving back to SF from Santa Cruz. I was driving 17N. Right when I got on, there was this 300Z on my ***. So i figure, okay, I'll move over to the slow lane. Figure, he could pass me if he wanted to. But there was an Integra in front of him now and going slower than me. So I 'left" because everyone was going slow. it was empty so I drove my 'normal' speed. It was so empty, it took me a while to catch up to any cars. So after the 'twisty' section of 17, there comes the long stretch. I see this car zooming up fast. I switched over because I needed to exit to 85. The 300Z passed me and flashed his hazard. Either he though he just won the race that I had no idea was going on. Or he was trying to get me to race on a public freeway.

my advice: Ignore as he's an idiot trying to race on public roads.

Public roads that are dangerous under any conditons.

Disimiliar cars too.

He's an idiot. Move on. There's nothing to see here.

If you do see him, invite him to the next Rally-X!!

When it's ambiguous, the best thing to do is...nothing, I guess 17 is a fun stretch of road, but I wouldn't race on it.

ahhh yes the ricer flyby. when you are driving normally, and the ricer flys right past you, flashes his hazards, and then talks trash at the next light about how "slow" and "overrated your car is" meanwhile, you have no ***ing clue what the hell just happened or what is going on.

lol.

it was pretty funny. i had no intension on racing anyone on the public road. that's why i moved over in the first place. it's just too dangerous on these road. 17 is fun, but i have seen some crazy things happened there.

even though I say it's r00p, could he have been racing the integra, totally demolish it and due to his speed passed you?

i don't think so... the integra was in front of him when we first got on. He passed me 'after' the twisty section, which was 15-20 minutes later. And the integra was no where in sight. It was EMPTY. It was just him, me, and an old truck... I don't think he was or wanted to race the truck...

or he could have been saying "nice car or driving laterz" or he thought the hazard button was his super turbo button.

I still can't find my super turbo button.
