Who tries to race you?

It's been a very long long time since I've played the street racing game. But I do witness a lot of idiocy.
I was in the right lane (also the fast lane around here) tonight but there were several cars entering. I found space to my left, signaled, and moved out of the way of the merging cars. The last car getting on was a new Vette. I had 10 car lengths on him and the next car in the right lane was 10 car lengths up. The next exit was mine so I flicked on my blinker and held my lane making sure the Vette saw my intention. After 6 blinks I started a gradual lane shift. So the Vette downshifts fast enough to be near redline and aims straight at me. I snapped the car to the left just fast enough that he didn't peel the paint off of my passenger's door. I figure the guy didn't realize how quick his new ride was and scared himself as much as he irritated me.
What can I say. Idiots can buy any brand car they want. You don't need a qualifying driver's license or training courses.
End of rant. Just needed to vent a bit before I walk the pups.

Not sure what your situation is but if you're interested in some really cool car guys check out the Cars & Coffee put on by Auto Obsessed each week. Lots of regulars with some really cool cars - Porsches, Lambo's, Ferrari's, Ford GT's and sometimes you'll get something really rare like a Maserati MC12. If you want some details or an introduction to owner of Auto Obsessed feel free to PM me.

I was coming home from work this evening on a crowded and traffic-signal filled road (limit 45mph). I come up behind another 997 and he went nuts. Downshifted and zoomed across three lanes, cut into a turning lane then cut right back, and kept this up for about 4 miles, weaving in and out of traffic. As usual, there is really nowhere to go in rush hour, so I finally came up behind him once again. Black 997 with VA plates DARK KNT. Batman proves that not all the idiots are driving "other" cars...they're us as well.

As far as others wanting to race... practically never.

C5 Corvette. Baseball cap on backwards with girlfriend in car with him acting impressed as he flies up to me to tail grab me, fly by and then turns into Autozone. I had driven 3 hours at that point with windows down forgetting about life, and admiring rural Wisconsin. If I didn't have to come back that night I would have kept going. I lost all perception of time. Got to love summer days.

I've found over the years and different cars that Corvettes are most often wanting to race. My latest car, 06' 997S Cab doesn't attract much attention at all. It appears to be a cruiser I guess, kinda nice.
