Mustang Tried My Patience

So a mustang called me out. Revved at me at the light. As a young sexy adult I tried my best to control myself. I did not rev back. Light turned green, we went forward. He pulled from a roll. As hard as I wanted to hold back I did a little pull of my own in first gear. After that I cruised it.

What would you have done in this situation? Has this ever happened to you?

Ever since I purchased my Camaro people have been trying me way too often.

Shit goes from shitty Hondas to Bimmers/Mustangs.

I should have expected this. xD

Happens all the time, I normally ignore them. Last time it happened, the idiot obviously didn't see the cop sitting right behind me.

You'll learn to ingnore ass wipes like that after awhile. It will only get you in trouble.

I usually ignore them or try to get their information from them to meet me at the track to race for cash.

When I first got the car I got the same thing with hondas and even a grand prix GXP. Since getting the mods last year shown below and the car becoming a lot more louder and more aggressive, no one has really messed with me like that anymore. Probably being more cautious now and what they rev at. You did the right thing and not street race.

That's because everyone knows they can't beat white Camaros. I think it's actually written in stone somewhere.

As an old sexy adult it happens to me all the time. Depends what kind of mood I'm in whether I ignore or play a little. No reason to get mad about it either way. What do you expect when you drive a Camaro? Goes with the territory.

I've only had one car try to race me and I joked around with a ZL1 once, but nobody really goes too crazy trying to race me. Like Ace0751 though, I have a louder setup and I think a few people are scared of the car's "bite".

I've never had anyone try to race me here in the Philadelphia area. Everybody is too depressed. Never come here
