He followed me all the way back to work and when he pulled up next to me. It was a wannabe thug with tattoos on his face trying to race me. I'm very young (22) but come on.. Trying to do this to another camaro owner is really stupid. I could see if i was in a mustang or challenger or another Muscle car. Just can't stand people like that. Wonder if anyone else has had this happen to them before?.

Maybe he was a real thug.

Yeah idk. But what really upset me was that he was spinning his tires then accelerating coming inches away from hitting my bumper.

I was going to say, your first mistake was going to Macdonalds but I won't

He probably thought you were being a dick and slowing down on purpose. Sometimes I'll come on on people in traffic and they'll puposely slow down really slow just to be an asshole. And if he was really a thug you need to be careful. Ganstas will pop a cap in yo ass without even thinking twice.

You being 22, that might come after some experience and practice of not "losing your cool." Have I had something like this happen to me before? Absolutely. All kinds of crappy stuff happens out on the road, and you just have to learn how to distance yourself from it and keep it from getting to you. That's what they want-- to be engaged. Don't give them the satisfaction.

Exactly. I couldn't have said it better. I just learned. I got my Camaro really young when i was 20. So i learned from my tickets and what I've seen on forums.

daveagogo1 · 06-09-2014, 05:37 PM

I am positive i have lined up with way more Camaros than anything else.

Raysmaro · 06-09-2014, 05:39 PM

Theres nothing wrong with lining up next to another fellow camaro. Just don't be a Dick about it. This guy was trying to do something else

You're doing fine kid. Keeping your cool, in any situation, is the key.

This might just be the asshole in me that hates to socialize in person from time to time with other car enthusiasts, but I find it hilarious that most of yall think that because someone owns a Camaro that you'll automatically get love and respect from them as if yall were in a fraternity. This isn't a frat, and this isn't a branch in the military which will always have love for someone because they are apart of something larger than themselves. It's a freaking car, we own it because we love it.

Majority of the time in your life time, you will run into more douchebags out there that own the same thing as you, and won't respect you and will want to be better than you.

Next time you expect someone to want a thumbs up or something, think of it this way just change your story a little bit to make it seem like you were walking in a mall, and you noticed someone wearing the exact same shoes as you. You were walking slow and he was huffing and puffing right behind you, and you were only going slow to let him go around you so you could compliment his shoes....sounds retarded now doesn't it?

Learn to let go and realize that we live in America, the most rude nation in the world with the expectation for everyone else to be nice.
