my friend tries to race whom?
Bad Susan, very bad Susan. Be nice to Girl Scouts, they are trying to make the world a better place. I don't see a question here..
Noel, you are the subject of the sentence, therefore, the nomatative phrase following is a modifier of the subject, so it is in the subject category, who I have a known, is correct here.
you should try to impress whom..?
whom/whoever has a fat wallet is the object of impress... IMPRESS whom?
the phrase is same category as as Noel's phrase.

Instead, it should be:
The Johnsons, whom everyone in the neighborhood hates, let their noisy dogs bark all night.
