WHO IS THE WORST AT IT???
I totally know this feeling but here in South and Central FL there are some offenders that are worse than others...i gotta say these BMW guys (especially the M's) are the absolute worst! Something about an ego having a luxury car that can handle and these dummies think they rule the world. Not trying to offend just calling it like i see it. Also every nutbag with a challenger thinks its a Demon...im over it! Stay off my bumper in traffic or im dusting you at first opportunity!!

I don't daily drive & have this problem like most here are describing, but the ones that try certainly would be like me if I didn't own & saw one at a light. Can only assume they simply want to see her launch...so, those who are currently ribbing me are like newer 1/2 ton trucks & the like.
I have yet to see another ZL1 in the Rio Grande Valley besides another member here at the one coffee & cars he invited me to with a 1LE. |

When I drive a vette (doesn't matter, C5, C6, OR C7), I am ALWAYS challenged by V6 Honda Accords.
With the Camaro's it's usually Mustangs and Challengers. It's the Accords that get me. I'm not sure what those dudes think they have under the hood, but a 'peppy' car is never going to take a fast car...

Around here it's big ass (lifted) pick ups. They'll pull up next to me and then throttle down and speed away. Impressive. Not. Every now and then a young kid in a V6 this or V8 that will mess w/ me. I don't take them seriously...more than likely they just want to see/hear what mine can do.
And.. remember....most w/ 300+ hp think they have a fast car. They really have no clue.

Sure it is, if they get the drop on your or have AWD to have that faster 0-30. Once you are screaming through 60mph or more you may have gotten the drop on them, but who are the cops going to pull over at that point? You'll look like a fool even though you'll pull them forever on the top end. If they can beat you off the line at a stoplight, they can take you, that is why you don't let those people race you, they can do their 5K clutch drop or whatever and scream ahead to the next stoplight.

Don't get much of this at all in my area. However, I do have 70 to 100 cars trying to race me pretty much every weekend at AutoX.
