Shuldn't street race no matter where you are or whatever circumstances arise. Racing is for the track.
No matter how secluded a road may look there can always be a cop right around the bend (i know from experience).... also the risks involved are not worth the reward of simply boasting a bit about your car. Don't mean to lecture but that's how it is. Grow up suk it up and let the idiot blow you by... good choice on the lambo he ended up looking stupid

Street racing talk aside....wondering why you took off at a decent clip and barked second gear if you didn't intend to race? All the while this exotic car blows your doors off as he races by.
He probably thinks you was trying to race. If you'd have just rolled off the line like a normal stop light I think he'd of caught the clue right away.

Why did he have to flip you off? That just shows he's a little man with a big car. He should have been smiling, not angry. What a loser.

Your right. i did suck it up. but i don't need to grow. I am a man after all. considerate and i like to think honest and law abiding. Youre also right about the Lambo....he looked idiotic. I don't need to chest thump!! however i always take off at that pace, i wasn't racing....my car regularly bark second at half throttle. Trust me if i were to race him , i am no amature to the 1320. i took off as i almost always do. Clarkson was testing a LS2 gen 1 CTS-v . i saw that episode. pretty cool, but those brits put down American cars fiercely, like they wouldn't be speaking German or worst Russian if not for us!! Still sore about 1776 i can safely say mine doesn't BONG!!( Gen 2 LSA) lol though the first time the back up sensors went wild when i was close to the mailbox had my bloodpressure up. ( like the camaro the interval between beeps gets shorter and shorter) i thought it was gonna explode or something..lol i definitely should've read the whole manual. i laugh about it now!! Back on point. I'm not a street racer. but i would be lying if i said i never did it. You do grow up at some point. the reward/distaster scale favors the latter. either legally, monitarily, or God for bid, Humanly! i knowwhat your saying about a cop popping up. But i know these roads ( lived in the same area for 35 years)and where the traps are. All i've ever seen is Fish and Wildlife patrol cars in these area i'm not Charles Manson..lol but i not gonna live life like i'm dead either!

If a Lambo pulls up revs and baits you...just roll slow and watch his magic. Those cars are not to be messed with, idiot driver or not.

Personally I am not a fan a all of Italian sports cars, Lambos in particular.
I think they are just SOOOO f**kin' ugly. I could care less how fast they are, they're just ghastly looking. I see a Camaro, Mustang or similar, I think: now there's a woking man's/woman's car. I see a Lambo and I think: rich brat with a wet handshake inside. If I had an SS (I only have an LS) I wouldnt even let a Lambo driver think he even had the remotest chance of having the honour to race a Camaro. Find a Ferrari or Porsche instead. |

My post above should have read:

haha what a tool, I just can't stand guys in those exotic cars, they think they own the road. Mind you I have never come across that and where I live there ain't no exotic cars, but still... oh well I guess it makes their ego feel good.
