Challenger assho$e

So coming home today I was behind a Challenger. The guy did a really great job on it, very impressive looking! So I attempted to get along side him to give him the big thumbs up and he cut me off. I thought maybe he did not see me so I attempted again and same result. Well now I’m pissed, I was just trying to be nice.

End of story goes like this: I got in front of him at the next light and I can assure you his ears were left ringing from my ARH/Corsa setup and maybe he had some P-Zero rubber on his front facia. Needless to say I did not see him again! Shame there is so much hate on hate with these cars. With that said, this guys Challenger was one of the best I’ve seen, too bad he was such and ass and did not want to take a compliment from a Camaro owner.

Seems like a doucher to me. Most guys like getting compliments on how hard they work on their cars. I got a wave from a slammed Lexus (well done just not my taste) so that was cool.

No idea why people don't like compliments from other models

Were you driving thru my town today? That's about 99% of people here. Ive been cut off, failed attempts at races, flipped off by more people then I can count (they were going the opposite way so I didnt do anything wrong) Definately a lot of hate and its pointless. I'm President of a CAR club locally and ALL cars are welcomed. We have a variety bc we are car enthusiasts not just Camaro peeps.

I don't understand why/how you could hate someone that drives a different brand of car, really who cares. I hope to have a Challenger sitting next to my SS some day in the near future, I have no hate for Mustang or Challenger drivers except when they act like jerks.

This guy was obviously a jerk trying to cut you off, obviously he is a Camaro hater. I had a Mustang guy that did everything to get me to race him. He zoomed by me and then pulled off the road and waited for me, he came over in my lane so I had to go on the berm. He screwed with me for probably 10 minutes and then gave me the finger as he drove past me.

maybe a challenger has a worse blind spot than a Camaro? Is it possible?

Some guys are like that,....some ladies as well. At car shows I've had challenger guys ..mustang guys..old school muscle car guys come up and chat cars. I've done the same many times.....this pound off is in the minority. I did have a self proclaimed Plymouth guy come up and say ....not a bad camaro, I don't know much about them but I hear they blow up a lot. I looked right at him and said...your right you don't know much. That's the only negative I can remember.
