Intimidated?

Other day i was coming home from work and was stopped at an intersection waiting for the light to change. I had my windows down and my music blasting since it was beautiful out ..... so a girl id say maybe 20 or so in a Toyota Prius pulls up next to me and decides shes going to crank her "dubstep/techno" music 10x louder then my radio ... whatever... anyways, the light turns green and she punches it peels out/tires screeching.. all i could do was say.. "really??"... needless to say she then became extremely reckless speeding/passing people without signaling. I was maybe 50 yards behind and noticed a lady trying to cross the street and she was almost close to being hit because this girl didnt want to break for her..... thankfully she didnt and made it across safely..

I hate how certain people try to prove something, i know there is nothing you can do because there are "those kind" of people everywhere, but in all reality they should be paying more attention to the road/whats in front/around them and not trying to make them look even more foolish then they already are.... plus, the camaro would smoke em anyways.. we dont need to prove anything

Maybe she was tired (hence the loud music to keep her up) and she had to pee (hence the speeding)... You never know... ha ha

Ive had my Camaro for a week now, and It's happened every day I take it out.
the most unusual was when a hummer did this to me..
I knew the owner, goes to my school, he's a douche, one of "that kind"
just floored it at the green light.
I just went on normally and easily,
he looked like a jack ass since he stopped behind traffic up ahead (braking hard):face palm:


and I ended up ahead of him anyways

I chuckled and just watched her go on her way.

I get this kind of thing from guys in Beemers and Benzies all day.

Not the sick AMG Benzies or M3's +

Like the guys who bought the 35000 German Luxo car just so that they could say they have one.

The best one ever was this guy in a pillbox Miata clone BWM, receding hairline, aviators, puffing on a really big cigar next to me. Grinning and blowing smoke in my direction as he revved his little motor.

I asked him if he wanted to borrow a few cylinders and let him speed off. I'm not losing my license or killing somebody over some douchebag with a complex.

Still, it took every ounce of restraint in my body to show him what an LS3 sounds like when it's screaming at 5500 RPM as it sucks the headlights out of his car.

Don't get me wrong, I know some of those Z4's are quick, especially the TT ones, but man..... there's a time and a place.


OP.

Get used to it. It's like being a big guy in a crowded bar. Someone's gonna want to pick a fight with ya.
