Every other week i like to Visit my Sister and brother in law...we both live off a major east west road and its a straight 8-9 mile trip one way.

Lot of lights...and light to medium traffic. Sunny ride on a clear warm day!

My comment was about going there...Seems .Every driver i encountered with a newer car or suv was Jeff Gordon

It was beyond normal....every tom dick and harry, wanted to push me.

And NO i was minding my own business....not even looking at anyone...
i did however have my window down.

It seems if you drive in Florida with your widon down in a sports car its a sign you want action.

Its frustrating....they think a Stock SS is slow?

I'm sure they can hear headers and fairly open exhaust...though by the time they did..it was to late for them!
( and a faint blower whine)

whoah!

(if you see drag radials...yeah there not for show!!)

" look at those things hugging the road!!"

Dude, do your thing and let all those pushers just wait. No sense in letting it bother you.

Drive the speed limit and really make them mad!

Don't you get the same reaction driving that CTS-V!?
What part of SE Florida are you in?

i drive under the limit just to piss them off more.

It's not that people think the car is slow, it just brings the beast out in people. They drive like they wish they had an SS.

I feel this aggravation every day I drive my Camaro and feel your pain. FL has the most obnoxious drivers of any state I have ever been in. Problem is the minute you try and "overdo it" .....that will be when a black and blue spots you and chooses you to pull over instead of the other driver.

Order a set of horsepower decals from "Sticker Witch" 500 or 600 hp on the hood or fenders will put an end to most of this...
