I have this neighbor across the street who made it a point to rev his 2000 cobra as loud as he could whenever i was washing my car, then he'd back out of his drive and go tearing down the street like an idiot, speed limit is 25 by the way... Lol, sweet justice the other day when I come home and see his car with the front bumper cover off, getting winched onto a trailer. I go over and look in the engine bay because the hood is open and what do I see, his timing chain sprocket has snapped off launching the chain on the driver side through the cover and top of the valve cover. Even better is he did it right around the corner from where we live. Apparently he doesnt realize that its bad to start your car and then immediately do that kind of crap, especially as often as he did. sorry about the long post.

And as far as people acting crazy around the Z... I feel ya man, people here in Enterprise, AL arent very considerate drivers anyway, then I get the Z, it's almost comical, almost.

Most of my aggro comes from Porsche owners without fail.

If it wouldn't get my car keyed I'd get the plates "LOLUMAD"

LOL - I live over in Daleville right now and I know what you mean. People down here don't drive real friendly anyway - but going through E-prise is often funny. Haven't had anyone try to race me really other than on a trip to Dothan. A Mustang, Camaro and what turned out to be an undercover cop in a really sweet blacked out Charger. We weren't going that fast - 80 in the 65 - but when I started to pull around the Charger he hit his lights for a second, put his hand out the window and motioned to slow down, then gave me a thumbs up. Was pretty funny really.

Hey cool, what portion are you teaching? I'm about to start the 64 course. In fact this is my study break! Perhaps I'll see you around.

I pulled into the gas station and I see a black gt3 already getting gas.
He was staring at my car as I pulled in.
I get out to pump my gas and he's about to leave and all of a sudden he does a burnout and chirps like no other! LOL!
Man, oh man does that car sound badass @ WOT!
