There you go - you hit the nail on the head - I see this in Florida all the time.

I had a challenger try but he couldn't catch up to me...he was trying real hard too, poor guy, but he couldn't corner so I was gone.

Toyota Prius drivers do that to me and lifted trucks... Oh and one Fiat Abarth, but just once.

Soccer Mom's in their SUV's are typical offenders... These women are competitive, always in a hurry, and drive like everyday is Black Friday.

Yep, I get alot of that too...LOL!

Not many other V8 cars around here, a lot of V6 challengers, camaros, and chargers but they usually don't mess with me. I don't like "street racing" due to getting arrested for it in college

but around here it's mostly trucks trying to get me to stomp on it. A couple days ago there was a loud ass Honda Civic in front of the car next to me at a light and he started revving his engine for no reason, and I couldn't help myself so I opened the cutouts and sang the song of our people. And he stopped revving and the people in the car next to us had big smiles on their faces.

Happens all the time. If they just slam the gas on the freeway they usually just want to see what the Camaro can. People like seeing the Camaro's power. Or sometimes its the V6ers that feel like they need to prove to 2 extra cylinders weren't worth it or something idk. Other times its like they try to show off to ME that their car is just as good.

I've had this happen to me many times as well, all types of random cars trying to race me. I just laugh unless its a car that I know can keep up or beat me, then I'll have some fun. Not risking a ticket for a easy win lol.

I've even had V6 and SS camaros try and race me, not sure why? Maybe they just want to see what the ZL1 can do? Had a dude in a LT camaro riding my ass and "playing" with me, he speed past me then cut me off

TIREKLR · 11-03-2015, 06:49 AM

Anyone who beats challengers,chargers,vipers etc is good in my book

Abomb1223 · 11-03-2015, 06:57 AM

Sometimes i do this just to see the faster car fly and hear it as well.. just kinda fun!
