It makes me want to downshift and catch them. But then I realize I have already lost my license once for speeding in my camaro.

You are not weird! I get wired and have to change my driving to make sure I get a full look at the car. They all look so bitchin'. I need to check to see if it is a V6 or V8, and whether it has the RS package. Most times I come up shaking my head as it's a car without halos. :(

I'm prejudiced against cars without halos. I don't know why. Mail slot, no big deal. I like the look of V6s as long as they have the RS package, or at least aftermarket halos. Is it just me?

Ditto that. I roll my eyes and think, "what an idiot". Especially if they are doing it because they think they are cool. Kinda like when I'm driving my Dodge/Cummins and the morons with their dodge/cummins, powercroaks or undurablemax's roll coal on purpose as they pass me by. I roll my eyes, point and laugh. That pisses them off more than anything. If they take offense I laugh even harder and make sure they see me laughing harder.

First, I look to see how fast I'm going. Even in my lowly V6 I tend to be the one passing rather than being passed. I don't really "feel" anything except maybe relief. Hopefully, a cop will pull him over before me.

Never been passed, typically they pull up along side to wave, or they are just oblivious...

Hell I'm trying to get Halo's on my LS right now... It's a pain finding exactly which to choose since there's so many different options with each carrying different loads of work.

Me too! Even if it just passing at a stop light or something... I always think, "I hope they still love their car as much as I love mine!" And then I move on to checking or their ride, if I am lucky to have that much time.

Never get tired of seeing fellow Camaros, regardless of the gen.

I got challenged by a V6 Stang one time, I passed him using the cruise control switch. My windows were down and at the next red light he said, "Damn, those things are faster than I thought." Then I asked, "You raced me?". He just looked pissed off at that point. Light turned green and we went our separate ways.
