Or, it could have gone like this. OP, good on you for letting this kid learn a lesson. A little like an after school special but I have seen stuff like this happen and it is not pretty. I will not post pics, as not to invade his privacy, but a member of this site with 600 rwhp just recently had a similar incident except he avoided the other car and flipped into a tree.

No one informed me that we have snitches on this site here. lol !! Just teasing ya Alaskan. That's good for their ass. People always wanna race when they see people in a camaro. The funny thing is they know deep in their hearts that most times their cars can't even keep up. So why try? Know how many times I stop at lights and get that here in NY. And most of the time I just be on my "Will Smith-(Summer Summer summer time- mode)" Meaning I just want to chill and get my cruise on so everybody sees me. lol !!! I bet that fool will think twice next time they pull along side a camaro. Too funny of a story. lol !

That's kinda like the guy you see coming up behind you in your rearview mirror. He's weaving in and out of traffic, passing every chance he gets, obviously in a hurry. He blows by you like you are sitting still, then 5 miles down the road you see him pulled over by a cop on the side of the road. You chuckle as you drive by.

As long as you didn't rev your motor, teasing him at the stop light, you have nothing to feel guilty about.

see that all the time. the road I drive to work is a 4 lane divided highway through the boonies with a 20 miles stretch without lights or stop signs. I usually head work about 3 am, so hardly anybody is on the road. and at least twice a month a watch somebody blow by me only to see the flashing lights a couple miles down the road. I've never been brave enough to honk though.

We have an Audi and a Camaro. I've owned Corvettes, Benz, Audi, Infiniti and have nothing against any of them. Do people a favor and one day you'll get one in return.

other than race off after him, theres not much you could have done differently. the guy deserved it if he didn't realize there was a cop on the other side of you.

Karma will usually get you back. That's why this happened. I would guess it's a safe bet that the Audi driver had it coming. Good thing it happened before someone got hurt. Hopefully, the driver slows down a little...

BTW - Nice handle, OP.
