People just don't get it. It's a 12 second car, so no, I'm not going to race you in your 10 year old 4 door with a low output 6 cylinder....
I'm driving along in the Cobra last night, and an ANCIENT Grand Am full of 16-17 year old kids pulls up next to me. The guy start revving at me. I make a "No" gesture with my hand, and acclerated normally up to 55, shifting at 2100 RPMs. I was slightly ahead of him, so I figured he had given up on his ambitions of racing me. When I stopped acclereating, they all started flipping me off, giving me the thumbs down, and other crap you might expect from a car full of morons. I just laughed and shook my head, tempted as I was to downshift and put a couple buslengths on them just to avenge myself. Appearently, the kid got offended by my laughing, because he then stepped on it. He puts on his flashers when he's doing about 70, and they all stick middle fingers out the window..... RIGHT as they fly by a cop! :nono: :loser: :burn:
I couldn't stop laughing, I've never laughed so hard in my entire life. The cop appearently though they were flipping him off, and was HAPPY to take off after them to teach them a lessson. As I passed, as this dousche bag was pulled over, he flips me off AGAIN! I passed by 10 minutes later in the opposite direction, and saw 9 cop cars surrounding the little Pontiac. So my guess is not only did this fool get himself nailed for 70 in a 55, not only did he stick his middle finger in the general direction of a cop TWICE, he probably also ended up with a DUI or Possesion charge.
:lol: op:
I learned a valuable lesson. When a moron in a car with 1/4th your power tries to race you, no matter how :mj: you get, it's always better to point and laugh than to embarass them with speed. This was probably the single most vindicating experience of my driving career, justice was definitely done.
