I smoked his *** 6-7 times that night. He wasn't happy.

Yeah, there will be morons at the track for sure.

My favorite was a while back when I was running 'stock' in the dead of FL summer. Had not made a pass yet and a younger guy in a Cobalt SS walks up to me.

guy: "hey you wanna run my car?"
me: "sure, what you got?"
guy: "that turbo cobalt... everything chevy makes is a POS and this is the only one that's any good"
me: "cool. so tell, me why did you pick me to run?"
guy: "oh, I usually run about the same times as 350Z's"
me: "so what kinda times do you run?"
guy: "you don't want to wait and see???" (cocky grin)

We lined up and and I ran a decent time... 13.6 @ 105?. He ran a 14.7 @ 107 mph.

me: what happened to you on that run?
guy: Let's run again, I'll turn up the boost.

I think I ran the same time again, he gained maybe a 0.1 et / 1mph.

Side note: The rules at PBIR are: 13.999 and faster requires a helmet. I knew he was full of sh*t when he pulled up to line WITHOUT a helmet!

I don't think your response helps him much, that and you probably did that with slicks + 7AT... he's got street tires and 6MT.
