What is it with teenagers in Camaros?

Maybe it just a teenager thing, but I was driving down Lawrence Expressway yesterday and this kid in a late 80's style camaro starts reving on me. I just ignore him. Due to traffic we were stuck between each other for about 5 minutes. His girlfriend kept looking at me (i guess ill take that as a compliment) and he kept reving on me. Finally we come to a light. We are side by side. The light turns green and I just drive normal. He, which was surprising, doesn't go at all untill 4 seconds after the light turned green. So at this point I was about 5 cars lengths ahead of driving the speep limit (40-50 due to traffic) and he get a long shot and passes me doing about 80-90. A car changes lanes and he almost rear ended it due to the locking of his brakes. The thing is that my WRX is totally stock and I didn't provoke anything. Idiot kid. Anyways thought you guys might like the read.

I don't think it has anything to do with the car. I think it is just a large number of teenagers in general that act like that. Way to be the better person.

did he look like this? If so, I believe he may be king of the trailer park since he owns an 80s camaro

That sould be a pretty funny topic.
