I've been staying in Danbury CT while I sell my place in NY. It seems every single slightly modified car wants to go at it doing absurd moves. I just let them. When in in my jeep no one messes with me lol.

I think some times people just want to see what your car can do and hear it rev out. Not necessarily want to race. At least that's what I want to see/hear when I pull up near any performance car.

You can usually tell when that's what someone wants, too. I've gotten thumbs up from people and waved on. Even had one guy in NH pull up to me going 70mph on the highway asking me to put the hammer down. I did. I'm pretty sure I made his day.

WRX, EVOs, modified Civics, G35/37, Camaros and Mustangs love tailgating and then blow by me. I need a "Stop Racing Yourself" sign I can pull out every now and then.

So, my question is what are some of the most ridiculous cars you've been called out by?
This chick/mom (maybe hot) was all up on my ass juicin her gas in her Acura MDX. Then didn't even give me a chance to cut off the on ramp she was outta there in tight traffic I wasn't about to try and jump in front.

I did have a 335 tryin to show off, on an on-ramp he slows real slow so i'm on his ass, then full throttles it onto the highway, I went up to about 6k and he had distance but there was a bunch of traffic. Dunno if he had a JB4 but he was sportin every M badge and sticker on his ride possible, was ridic.

True, I was really tempted to race this GT today, he had a great sounding exhaust and I know we're nearly matched rides. I guess I can't bring myself to do it.

I have a coworker who's got a turbo'd up pickup. Probably would keep up. Apparently creamed an RS4 that raced him at a light.

Ya that's the nice thing about the confidence of that VT-625!!!

Holy Hell.....I'm surprised the guys at the line didn't suffer smoke inhalation injury. You can see from what I drive that I am no tree hugger, but this is ridiculous.

Love Miami. But when all the fast cars are packed with contraband, the last thing people want to do is engage in a high risk activity like street racing that could get the car searched

I seem to get the Mustang GT's with all the bolt ons looking to beat an NA M3. Guess most of them miss the AA badges on the back. The look of utter disbelief that they can't hang with me is always a pleasure.

I've got a pesky SL65 AMG on my commute that we conveniently stop at a red light at the same time. I'm 0-3

This. Happened on Saturday. Then as I slowed down into the flow of the fast lane he sheepishly tucked in behind me and stayed there.
