I mean, I don't do it to other sports cars. Maybe they do it because they feel they're competing with me or something? Idk, but it's by far the most annoying thing that happens when I drive this car.
I'm gunna go out on a limb here and say this happens in the faster lanes? That's the universal "You're in my way, please move. Maybe you have nothing to do, but i'm in a hurry. Thanks." I ride everyone who goes under 70 in the fast lane. Call me an a*s hole whatever. I have the "following to closely" ticket to prove it. There is only one time that i will 100% not ever tailgate someone, that is when they are in the slow lane. My first car was a 1993 Jeep Wrangler YJ and that son of a gun barely did 70 (on a good day) so i stuck to the slow lane. However, people that get on the freeway at 55 then move over to the FAST/PASSING lane and hold steady at 65 get an eye full of high-beam and some time a blast of my PA system to "GET THE !@#$ OVER!"

Na man, not even. I'm in NY, and people do this in every lane, even if I myself am already going rather quickly. Then I try to get over, and some a-hole will speed up to block me. This is why I need a supercharger

"It's just a car..." Yeah, a car that set me back $30K - which for me is significant. Otherwise, I'd be posting in the ZL1 section and be driving my 'other' ZL1 while the first one was getting dings fixed!

Did anyone buy the "ding" insurance? It was offered to me at the dealer for like $18.00 / month but I declined.

Lol, i hate those people. I got so annoyed of people trying to block me out that i let my blinker run for like 2 seconds, and when they speed up i drop from 6th to 4th and show them they don't get to tell me no.

After reading your post above, I'm not surprised at your emo defense of another whiny thread about an everyday, common occurrence
Kid? I wish i was young again..

Oh no, not trying to hurt your feelings at all.. Just switching it up on you is all since you get on a persons thread and be a Dick with your smart ass rude comment.. I swear, there seems to be people out there who troll the Forums just to make snide comments on other peoples threads..

Have I seen the exact same thread before? Yeah, I have.. Over and over I have.. But why get on said thread and be a Dick? His thread "WAS" in General discussions was it not? I could see something less intrusive if said OP posted said thread in the S/C section.. But then its NOT your job to police the Forum.. Thats the job of the Moderators to do.. So if your tired of repeated post, take it up with the Mods..

Oh, before I get off this computer.. I wanted to ask you about your comment..
"I'm not surprised at your emo defense of another whiny thread about an everyday'"
Did you not just after my post on the OP's thread start a whiny thread of your own? Hmmm?

No wonder the "OTHER" Camaro forum people talk crap about this Forum because of people like you...
