When I was 12, I had a friend that use to think that Skylines were faster than any Supercar stock, he kept blabbing that they had 700-1000hp.
Around my university, there is a "Cambergang" and "Stancesociety" group on one corner of the parking lot. These guys have bashed on me before because I was in the college's Formula SAE team before.
They have a tendency to bash and hate on people who have a brand-new car (new or used, if they see someone with a temporary plate, they WILL bash on it).
A few days ago my GF got a 2010(?) Lexus GS460 for ~$10k (not a bad deal, I'd say) and parked right alongside me, and I unfortunately was parked 3-4 cars away from this group.
When we left to go to our cars at night, oh boy. They were right in front of our cars, waiting for us.
One of the guys (drives a lowered civic with a massive as 🤬 wing spoiler) immediately berates my GF and started calling her a "spoiled 🤬 who doesn't know how to drive."
The crap, dude? It's one thing to tell someone they are spoiled by looking at the car, but it's another thing if you just say they flat out suck at driving by looking at the car.
And he then started berating me for a slow driver (I drive at the speed limit around the area because every corner and straightaway is a speed trap).
"Yo man, for a racer, you is slow! How 'bout you take you and yo girl outta here, you have no place in this lot!"
"Uh, what?"
And later on, another member stepped up and said:
"Ay, you know what, why don't you two prove to us that you belong here by drifting, ay?"
Like these guys know about drifting.
So I decided to step up the plate and flat out say:
"Like you guys know how to drift."
One dude automatically ran out, went in his completely ruined S14 240SX and just shouted out,
"I'LL SHOW YOU GUYS HOW DRIFTIN'Z DUN"
And went full speed around the corner, annnnnd.....
.... Crashed straight into a tree.
The whole "crew" panicked and ran to check on the dude, and as for my GF and I, we just drove home.
On the way out of the street, several cops, a fire truck, and an ambulance came past by us.
I'm not gonna park there again.
Hey, so uh, I'm at the hospital, typing on my phone. Dunno for how long I'm staying here, but, yeah. Ouch.
Guys, remember my earlier post of the dude with a Civic that had a gang that keyed up my family's cars? Yeah.
My brother got a 2015 Toyota Corolla S Plus for his early graduation present.
Yes, yes, I know. It's a Toyota Corolla . But in all honesty, it's nice, and I like it (judge me), and he likes it (judge him).
But lately he has been wanting to drive my other brother's RX-7 to school, and has been rather persistent about it.
So I asked him about it.
Turns out, ever since he got the car, the wannabe drifters driving mostly Hondas and Ford Focuses started attacking him for having a Corolla. The following day, told me about it happening again and I agreed to stop by his school to check out what's going on. He wanted me to drive the family car instead of the 6 (Pontiac G8 GT, Aussie V8 powah!), and I just went, "Okay, sure."
So I asked my dad if I could take a spin on the G8, and he handed me the keys.
Around the afternoon, I pulled around the corner and saw the guys harassing him, so I decided to shift to N momentarily and floored the gas, creating an "earth-shattering" roar that caught their attention.
I got out of the car and straight-up told them to "leave my brother alone."
The moment one of the guys turned around, I immediately recognized him.
Car-keyer Civic kid.
The dude saw me and straight-up went "Oh 🤬, you again?"
Yup, me again.
Moments later, the kid actually tried to start a fight with me, complete with his friends going "OOOOOOH FIGHTFIGHTFIGHTFIGHT"
Me, being a pacifist (mostly) turned down the fight, and told them to "Go home".
When I tried to approach to my brother to tell him to go home, the dude pulled me by my shirt, and, according to my brother, whacked me with something that looked like a spare tire iron. I apparently was knocked out, and his "crew" started stomping on me, WHILE I WAS KNOCKED OUT.
My brother told me he got scared, drove off and called for help, and later, was taken into the hospital, which is where I am now.
The upside?
I'm alive! 👍
The downside?
I'm here, and they almost jacked my family's G8. 👎
If he wanted to press for property damage it might. With the date it would show he wasn't making it up.I don't think a post made by him would count as sufficient evidence. Pictures and witness testimony, yes.
There are other ways of checking a picture's date. Especially with the phones of today.If he wanted to press for property damage it might. With the date it would show he wasn't making it up.
Good point, but what I'm trying to say is it could be evidence that this wasn't the first instance. If there's words that back up a photo many months ago, it could be slightly convincing.There are other ways of checking a picture's date. Especially with the phones of today.
Download it. now. Or record your screen with your cell phone.My brother told me that a guy posted a video of the whole "fight" and tagged the kid (he's friends with him) on FB.
That could be set as evidence...
On a sidenote, I do question how they managed to be friends on that site...
@Grandea GTR do you actually know the civic kid or you just seen him around?
His family lives in my neighborhood, so kinda.@Grandea GTR do you actually know the civic kid or you just seen him around?
