First real kill: VW GTI

I've had a few rolls on the highway before with a couple of other cars in the past when I was stock, but since getting the ZZP tune, DP, exhaust, intake, rear sway bar, and new rubber all around, I haven't ran anything, mainly because I don't look for trouble unless it comes knocking.
So, I slow down to a red light, and I can see blue headlights behind me and I could tell it was a Golf. He was weaving in and out of cars slowing down to come to the red and he gets behind a truck to my left. Light turns green and I drive normal and he swings out just in time for us to get the next red. I hear, "puuuussssyyyyy". I don't turn my head. "Yoo!". So I turn my head, and the passenger in the GTI (now that I can see what car it is) says to me as he exhales his e-cig vape bullshit, "Yo man, don't even waste your time". I laugh, turn my head straight and wait for the green to light up. Green light.
I mmediately pull a half car length in front of him despite on-and-off wheel spin in first, grab second, pull 2-3.5 car lengths when full boost hits, screech tires in the top end and bang into third...blue specs in my side view easily 6-7 lengths behind. I throw my right turn signal on to make the next turn to go home and just chuckle to myself at those words, "don't waste your time". The GTI definitely had work done to it, but I have no clue as to what, as it was a quick little thing. I didn't waste my time, butt-hurt GTI passenger, but you took a lot more time than I did to go from light-to-light.

Feels good.

TL;DR: Kid said don't waste my time, I made him look like an idiot and his friends GTI look slow.

Yeah, sorry about that. I have the mobile app on my phone and when I hit send the first time, it kept saying error: duplicate thread exists, so I copied, pasted and tried again, and same error all times. So I check for the hell of it, and viola, all of them posted and I dont know how to delete the other ones.

GTI's are pretty slow, and as stated I would have let him pull back up along side of me so I could have heard the excuses.

^^^ This.

people as ignorant as that driver and passenger won't believe they've lost anyways. they're usually borderline retarded. no sense in putting yourself at more risk or risk having a run in with the fuzz just to prove what's already been proven.

usually idiots like that escalate the situation when they lose and want to try again. they get more aggresive and stupid in my experience.

i blew the doors of a civic SI once. He coincidenaly was going past my old home so i had to follow him to get home. although he lost he insisted in ripping through the gears at every intersection, speed down every road all out and pass houses close to the road at idiotic speeds thinking i was going to race him again and he thought he could impress me or get his dignity back by showing off.. just looked like a moron beating on his car for nothing.

Oh yeah, totally agree with you on that. Also, I kinda have to be careful now because the TurboXS FL exhaust...really does stand for "****** Loud". Im glad I didnt go with the RFL exhaust.
