Talking ANOTHER SCOOBIE UP YOUR BUTT??

If you are driving as normal & suddenly discover another Scoobie up your exhaust pipe what's your opinion? Ignore them or crank it up!

Slam on breaks. Brace for impact . Wait for compo to reach bank . Car will be fixed at their expense. Use money to improve car performance. Repeat when nessecary ....

Clearly you try to get the ironing boards paint on the back wobbling like clarksons face driving that atom by doing 150mph. Free holiday then watching yourself get pulled by the gb270 on police interceptors

Its numpties like that, that give scoobs a bad name. I value my licence to much, i'd let them race on and then give them a wave when they are standing at the bus shelter waiting on a bus, after they've lost their licence....

I prefer to go to the track for fun...

I make a decision based on road conditions.
-is it dry,
-is the traffic quiet,
-is the road ahead free from any junctions etc,
-do I know the road,
-is my boost set to 1.6 bar,

If I can answer yes to all of the above then yes, I will embarrass the foolish man.
I'm a good driver and have experience with fast cars, but most importantly I know the difference between driving quickly and driving dangerously. Unfortunately many of today's Impreza owners can't say the same.

Excellent post. Cue the 'why did you buy an impreza if you're gonna drive like miss daisy brigade'

If my son were in the car, I'd deliberately slow down to a snails pace to open a larger gap in front should the unforeseeable happen in front.
