Good thing you didn't race him. The Bullet Edition has a 3.73 rear end and a V8. He would have smoked you!!

I'm glad to hear you kept a level head and that the cops got the idiot making fool of himself. I can't talk much I remember when I was 19 driving my vette I raced a brand new Formula down dangerous highway. Luckily I didn't or guy I was racing have accident and kill us or some other innocent bystandered. But if you want to race it best thingto do is take her to the track 1 for safety & 2nd can't getin trouble. Now adays there is just to many other drivers on the roads to race like there was back in the day. Also there are many more cops out! Good story and great head I know it's hard at times not to just stomp it and show them who's boss but nothing good can come out of it especially if you wreck your car or tear something up or even getting ticketed and taking chance of Insurance rates going up cause I'm sure being 19 years old I'm sure your rates are not that great anyways.

Awesome story. Granted I don't have the V8 Camaro but I still get people trying to race me down the street with my 1LT, even in residental neighborhoods . For me it's not worth, A. Getting hurt/killed for. B. Getting a ticket for and C. having my insurance go up.

I love it when I see some idiot flying past me that has usually been tailgating me and then a few miles later I see a state trooper hauling ass, running him down and pulling him over. Its only happened a few times in my life but man is it pure enjoyment. I always give a little horn when I go by too!

ooh boy do i have a story, some of you guys will love/hate.

I have to drive by baltimore every day and for those of you that dont know the lay out there a mile long tunnel that you have to go through to go under the harbor. What this means is you have to slow down to go through the toll (down to 15 with a electric pass). So last week i go through the EZ pass lane and a COP pulls up next to me looks at me as I pull out of the toll then he guns his engine a couple of times, nods his head at me, and takes off flying down the road!! Ill be honest I stopped accelerating (was only going about 40 in a 55 at that point)

he about flew by his exit too
