I've had my car a few months and it sure gets alot of attention. Sometimes I just nod and smile. Other times I'll give them a rev or down shift. It's just too much fun!!

When I was six I would ask my mom to burn out. Doesn't mean she tried to do it. Doesn't mean should would have even if she had a Camaro instead of a Corolla. Part of being an adult is not doing everything the neighborhood kids say to do...

Is this a real concern?

Yes I get all kinds of people trying to race me. Just means I take off VERY SLOWLY so cops don't arrest me.

That's because in the last 30 years, you weren't driving a Yugo.

I get challenged everywhere in mine.

people is pos cars will try to get you to burn out or they will try to race you. People will go faster at starts just because they want to see how their car may stack up. I dont gun it hardly ever so I just let them go by. Safety first...Huge difference in people around me than when I drove old car. But my car is a yellow camaro so it stands out much more.
