I think it's the drivers and the reason is seems like there are so many camaros and mustangs doing it is because they used ones are pretty cheap for quite a bit of HP.

It's fun to pretend to launch, the then don't so they floor it and then you pull up next to them at the next light

its not just teenagers it happens to me almost every morning from some overweight white guy with a beard in a green firebird.
came up to me in town one morning reving his engine at the light i looked over and laughed cus he was still holding his coffee cup too, light goes green i take off normal he speeds away and slows down and waits till i come up then steps on it again i laugh cus the cops are all over in the AM i was hopin he would get popped. so anyway he tailgates me all the way to the freeway, we get to the light to go on the onramp and hes next to me still has the goofy grin and coffee cup in his hand, i just laughed and then light turned green i dropped the clutch and punched it 1st 2nd here he comes 3rd i wave bye bye
now he want to rematch every time he sees me but i wont do it cus im not gonna risk another ticket for racing a jacka**

I see those kids all the time. It makes me laugh. It's even funnier when the passenger is talking ****.

This one time I had some *** sidebusting when I was on Lawrence. His friend was driving this crappy 3000GT that was all beat up. The tit asked me if I wanted to run for pinks and I told him that I didn't want a crappy car. It took him a few seconds to realize what I said and the driver tried to gun it. He downshifted and it took like 10 seconds to get like 30 feet... :rotfl:

so when i am driving in my 73 camaro on el camino (under speed limit so every one sees the car) don't try to race me as you will win as i will not speed.

Camaro is not for racing but for showoff.

BTW i am 35 trapped in 35 year old.

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.
