No offense, I would be on your **** too if you were going 5 under the limit, or pass if acceptable.

+1/2 ... ?
I've only had one "Challenge" and it was last summer by a Celica GT [wing & exhaust included] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/headscratch.gif[/img] I do notice a lot more idiots driving around my car though. Its like people see these cars and lose IQ points... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]
And the off-road pipe attracts attention, but no one has revved on me since then... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

as a member of the thin blue line club. I have had several "Offers" to show what I got under the hood. Most of the time, I smile and wave and ignore the idiots (unless I am in my zone of control....in that case, I call one of my associates and it is handled). I was out of town and had a 01 cobra who went out of his way to show his butt. I finally had to wave some metal at him (the kind that pins on a blue shirt) and he disappeard really really fast.
Guess you never know who is in the car next to you.

How about "your not worth it" or a simple thumbs down ususlly works for me. Don't know if GT's get treated any different, but I get reved on a lot. The two best ones was one guy mid 60's in a riced out late 80's chevy truck, the thing had "pops Toy" written on the front bug sheild it was kind of sad....., the other was a Camaro not sure of the year, one of the newer ones though. Poor kid though he reved and then when the light went green he stepped on it and stalled, the car sounded absolutly horrible and as I pulled away (normal speed of course) I felt really sorry for him. Still the reving has gone down to near nothing sine I put on the louvers and racing stripes.

For your sign, why not get the 'Calvin peeing on Ford/Chevy' sticker and put "Ricers" there instead? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

In the wild the prey will put on a show to try and make the predator think it's more powerful than it looks. Funny how it also applies to the streets with some insecure and jealous human beings. Those lesser vehicles are threatened by your 300 horses and thus feel the need to put on a show. We all know who is predator and who is prey. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]
btw, the less your car looks like stock the less of that crap you will have to deal with in my experience. It seems the jealousy of others turns to admiration. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]

Hey guys, I got revved at by a guy in a 2000 or so GT today as I was passing him by.
Now, I'm not sure how to interpret that. Is it a greeting or a challenge? Happened last week also with a fox body GT.

I seemed to get reved on usually by ricers sometimes by other mustangs or camaro's. I followed a LS1 Corvette last night I think he thought i wanted to race as i had followed him down several roads. I just happened to be trying to get to the highway the same back way he was. Once we got on it we both took off he had to turn off I put my window down and waved and he gave a honk. His license plate read "LS1 KID"
Then this morning on my way home, a 90s SVT mustang with a cowl induction hood and when he reved on me I could hear a blower, I knew he had more under the hood then I did that thing sounded MEAN. Made me JEALOUS, but we didnt race just saying Hello.

Edmonton, Alberta is like a theme from "The Twilight Zone" when it comes to bad drivers ( Ray thinks he is driving in Edmonton but actually he is in the twilight zone!) Especially nutbars in pickup trucks that want to race you at every light. I typically punch it off the white line but as soon as I get to the speed limit I back off. This drives truck owners nuts as 95% of the trucks do not have the same initial pickup. Then you have the group that drive Asian products, thats another story altogether!

2 quick idiot related stories. On monday i'm driving home from work casually and I pass this riced out cobalt. No sooner do I get a few car lengths on him, do I see him shoot over 2 lanes to get behind me and then gun it to ride my bumper (i'm doing about 70 so not going slow at all). He was like an annoying mosquito so I gun it and leave him way back there and then go on my way. 2 minutes later, what do I see ridign my bumper agaun, the same little dip!@#$. This went on the whole 20 min ride home.
Then last night i'm waiting for ym brother tog et out of work and am sitting in the mall parking lot mindign ym own business when this POS 70's car(no idea what it was) oulls up near me and tried doing a burn out, but successfully scrapes his rear bumper on the pavement and no burnout. He circles around me, and tried it again, and again. This went on for 10 min and I sat there laughing. He finally managed one(I think it would qualify) and drove off.
