GTA Online yesterday: I'm cruising around the desert near the Redwood Lights dirt bike track at night when suddenly out of my peripherals I see a minivan barrelling down one of the straights.
It wasn't a player, because there was no one on the map and I couldn't auto-target him when I hopped out of my own car, so it had to be a random NPC driver. It was, and it looked like he was in the midst of completing a lap, so I followed him - and sure enough, he did three laps around a freaking dirt bike course in a minivan, speeding and bouncing and drifting all the way. I could have tried to race him in my rally-prepped AE86/Karin Futo, but I wasn't sure what would happen if I accidentally made contact, so I hung back and enjoyed the show.
After the third lap, he simply turned off the course and trundled away at a normal NPC speed. Wish I had a capture card for proof. Guess they gotta have fun sometimes!

Mine has off road tires, a rollcage, the rally light kit up front, and every engine/transmission upgrade+turbo. I love it.

My new game is helicopter fishing.
Get a bounty on your head, grab a helicopter, land it outside your apartment, put a sticky bomb on the fuselage, head inside and watch from the safety of your apartment as someone comes looking to collect the price on your head. Once they realize you're in the safety of your place the lure of the free helicopter just sitting there will be too great to pass up. Let them get a little altitude first, then BOOM, blow them out of the sky. Yes, the sticky bombs can be detonated from inside your apartment... or clear across the map if you like.
You can do the same without the bounty if you just hang around the helicopter pad. Just don't go too far or the helo disappears and your sticky bomb will be left floating in thin air.

That is AMAZING. I had no idea sticky bombs had that much range! I want to do the helicopter/apartment trick ASAP.

The worst was when I set the bomb before I got in the chopper, enabled passive mode to appear non threatening, landed by a guy and just walked away from the chopper. He was more than happy to jump in and fly away...
It was an awful, wonderful thing to do.

I love it too! Everyone online is like, "Why are you driving that piece of crap?" and then you put the pedal to the metal and leave 'em in your dust!

Haha, exactly. Every time I bring it on a mission people always chose to ride in the other guy's Infernus or whatever, and then I beat them to the destination by minutes.
