Moose That was a well witten note to nut case who will at some point wreck that car or worst kill himself or another. As a mustang owner and soon to be camaro owner it is wise to show restrainst knowing you have the highest demand car being built today.

I've had my fair share of run ins with him. I ignore his antics.

But I did find where he lives, and sent him this letter;

Ford GT owner,

I wanted to pass you a note expressing my sympathy, for your Ford GT.

I would be obvious to anyone who is a “true” car enthusiast that a car such as the Ford GT is meant for use at a “track day”, an organized rally, an enjoyable ride on some winding back roads, or a car show, etc.
True, on occasion, an owner of such a car might throw on a set of slicks and go to a track for timed runs, or the occasional race against similar cars.

But in your case, you throw on a set of slicks, ride up and down the Newtown bypass, pass by (back & forth) the local car show, trying to impress everyone. What a waste of a truly nice car.

You do know where Council Rock High School is I’m assuming? Why don’t you hang out there when school lets out, and you can try and impress the kids driving their imports. They might be impressed. Those of us who know cars, and how they are meant to be driven and enjoyed, are not impressed with your antics. We did what you do every weekend, when we were in high school.

If you want to impress people with your “world beater”, enter it in a car show, or take it to a track. Driving around, trying to race anyone and everyone is irresponsible and juvenile.

Signed,

A responsible car enthusiast
