Why do Mustang drivers act so stupid?

Before any Mustang owners get upset, I'm also a Ford GT owner and have built 2 Factory Five Cobras and still own an FFR Daytona Coupe. My cobras were built with wrecked mustangs.... Now I see why it's so easy to buy wrecked mustangs.

We've had our ZL1 vert for a couple of weeks and I'm tired of Mustang owners pulling up and revving their engines. Today some as*h*** pulled up behind me doing burning outs at 30-40 mph. I felt like calling the cops to get his idiot off then streets. He's a menace and I was carrying my 7 year old in the car.

I didn't buy this car to race, I have other cars for that purpose on the track. My car is to enjoy cruising with my 2 small kids.

So what do you do when these idiots act like this?

Too bad you had your child with you, you could've schooled him!
Seriously though, I can't stand when those morons pull that crap.

I'm betting, just like any high powered car, if the equations falls to this:

HP > IQ = idiotic behavior

So I guess the smart car drives are the only people that don't act idiotic then

Allow me to rephrase:

HP > Common Sense = Idiotic behavior

I ignore people like that. It's like this, I don't drive fast at all on the interstate, so when in this car and I move over to the right, or just happen to be there anyway because that's what you are supposed to do, and someone passes me I kind of look at them and say "I shall allow you to pass." Because I really am allowing them, in this car, to go ahead, if I wanted, we all know I could make that not happen.

So have that same attitude on the street, let posers pose, and just be cool.

Mustags, WRX and Harleys always try to race Me and all are thoroughly humiliated and even after they loose they usually try again sometimes over and over. One guy in a turbo Nissan sx240 crashed trying to get around me. LOL

I had a new Jaguar XK act like an ass today on my way home. Had to laugh. Just shows that people know what a ZL1 is.
