That's no joke. I was in DFW back in February...you guys live in Camaro heaven. There are literally a Camaro on every block. Here in the Bay Area, you might see one a day. I got lucky and saw three today and it blew me away. New record for sure. LOL

Tailgaters either get a brake check, or wiper fluid if my car is already dirty.
Sometimes I'll slow down really slow, and as the try to go around, i'll speed back up.
I can play that game too.

Imports mustangs and minivans... German luxury sedans, and any variant of a BMW or Mercedes roadster are the guiltiest offenders.

I do my best not to succumb to the temptation.

I have learned to take the tailgating as a compliment.

If you pass a CGM SS, lowered with an obnoxiously loud exhaust with upstate c5 stickers on the side windows give it your best shot :-) Have a blast in seneca falls. I hear its really nice!


(Obnoxious exhaust = long tubes and a muffler delete... mufflers going on asap)

It is normal. People seem to think "OMG RACECAR MUST RACE IT!@!". Today on the highway some vw jetta pulled this one me and when I obviously refused to participate he went behind me and hi beamed me for 4miles....

HA!!! actually I will probably be asleep in the front passenger seat...I have to work from 7pm to 7am overnight Thurs and then leave around 9am Fri morning...so I am sure the wife will be doing her best to attract the attention of all my NYSP brothers up there ....(especially the dynamic duo I always see in the 55 zone on I-81 they sure are dedicated ha ha)
Just don't get freaked out if from retard in a DE Tahoe starts waving to you...I will be listening for that beautiful Chevy powered music...LOL

When this happens to me, I just pull over and make a phone call. If the officer comes up and asks why I am on the shoulder, I tell him it is safer to talk on the phone while not driving.
