SO this really UPSET me...

[B]So about an hour ago i took my lunch break and headed to Mcdonald's i looked in my rear view mirror. I saw a nice 2014 White Camaro SS. I think white looks great on a Camaro. So i was going to slow down to let him pass me so i could give him a thumbs up. But he stayed behind me and would burn the tires and rev his engine. I thought this was a douce move. He followed me all the way back to work and when he pulled up next to me. It was a wannabe thug with tattoos on his face trying to race me. I'm very young (22) but come on.. Trying to do this to another camaro owner is really stupid. I could see if i was in a mustang or challenger or another Muscle car. Just can't stand people like that. Wonder if anyone else has had this happen to them before?.

No. No one has ever tried to race someone else with the same car in the history of automobiles.

But seriously, he might've gotten the idea that you wanted to race when you started slowing down (letting him catch up).

I didn't know there was a proper way to post on a forum.

It's best to just ignore those people. Keep your eyes forward and drive normally.

You being 22, that might come after some experience and practice of not "losing your cool." Have I had something like this happen to me before? Absolutely. All kinds of crappy stuff happens out on the road, and you just have to learn how to distance yourself from it and keep it from getting to you. That's what they want-- to be engaged. Don't give them the satisfaction.
