White Focus ST A31 nr Farnham

Post by GardinerG » Mon Apr 14, 2008 12:03 pm

A white Focass ST170 spotted trying to make a certain RS6 (mine) to go faster/race.

2 problems though:
1. Wasn't sure if he was a copper baiting me (it has happend before)
2. There was a car in front of me anyway.

:lol: I eventually pulled over once traffic was clear and I was approaching my turning and he floored it past me only to have to slam on his breaks a second later behind the car I had been stuck behind.

:roll: I guess now I know why they call them FocAsses... ;-)

Funny, experienced exacty the same near Alton on Saturday (white Focus ST).
I had a car full of people so chose not to respond to him being stuck right up my chuff.
Tw@t overtook me very late approaching a blind bend and had a moment trying to avoid the lorry that appeared.

Maybe there is a disclaimer you have to sign saying you will drive like a <beep> at all times, regardless of conditions. :)

Stock RS6 is over 2 seconds faster 0-60mph. Didn't really have anything to prove but it would have been funny to ... how to put it politely.... demonstrate what RS means. :biggrin2: (his car looked stock).

Of course I would never condone such behaviour on public roads, next VMax perhaps? :lol:

Must be the weather as they all seem to be out!! Red Civic type R last night that pulled up at the lights next to me....started to let him go as i couldn't be arsed but saw the look in his mate's face as they thought they had me....so I gave in and floored it. The change on his mate's face was worth the petrol :shock: :D
