I look and see this NASTY old body style monte carlo ss revving his engine up at me. I am currently going about 45 in a 45, looked over and stared for about 5 seconds and returned my eyes to the road. Finally he says the words that went straight to the adrenaline plug that exists in my body and pulled it "Lets see what that POS has!"....I couldn't help myself. I slammed on the gas and so did he, before I knew it I was at 100 and he was well in the rear view mirror. Best part is at the light he gave me the finger and turned right. 15 minutes later I am at a stop light and a guy in an old body style Ford pickup that was falling apart was doing the same thing. Revving it up (thing sounded like it was .3 rpms from falling into pieces), sure enough his tires squeal at the light and he takes off. I didn't race this guy though because I am usually not big on street races.

Does anyone else get annoyed buy crap like this!?

Yeah, happens all the time. But still no excuse to be street racing!

Was more interested if other people get comments/remarks similar to this. Not if they like to street race or not. AND this is the perfect place to vent because the GF just doesn't understand. :tup:

It is just annoying. I guess I have a bad temper when it comes to people like that and should learn to smile and give a thumbs up. :tup:

Then when I graduated, I bought a sensible car, and over time, I made myself a more patient driver. I laughed off other people's insecurities and focused on getting there in one piece.

The Z, however, has unlocked my inner child a bit, and is making it harder for me to play nice :roflpuke2:

Better yet, how about driving with synchro-rev on and downshifting towards coming up on a light..and having the POS next you think you were instigating a race.. >_> and starts reving at you..

V6 Mustangs like to try and attempt to get me into something and get pissy when you don't give in. But beat up old Ford trucks just kinda want to see something flashey go down the road fast.
