Every single time I get mine out it happens. I call them TDSers (Tiny D*ck Syndrome) Last time I had my SS out I was cruising on the highway minding my own business going 60mph when some young TDSer in a Toyota came up on my ass, whipped beside me then in front of me, locked up his brakes and clapped his hands . I just slowed down and he kept braking and looking in his mirror, trying to get me to go around him and race but Im not stupid. I turned off the highway and he went on his way. Usually its just stupid people revving their engines at lights but this one pissed me off bc he couldve killed us both doing a stupid stunt like that.

They will decrease lol more so if it's raised, flat stickers will look like dealer sticker from afar or ppl won't notice at all

I don't necessarily have people wanting to race me, but people in my area think that if you own a sports car and you're not going at least 5-10 mph faster then they want to go they tailgate you. It's even worse when I'm on my motorcycle.

It doesn't matter what type of car they're driving either. Rusted out Civics to Soccer Moms and Dads in SUVs or mini-vans.

What surprises me is how many don't know the difference from and LS to an LT to a SS. There aren't very many camaros where I live and I get people try to race me from a dodge ram to the mustangs. I let them rev their engines and waste their gas, it makes me laugh. I am glad I have tinted windows then I don't have to make any eye contact.

People buy muscle cars / sports cars

Said people complain about people trying to race them. WGAS indeed.

You don't like it, buy a Prius.
