I must have a target on mine, I can't go anywhere without someone wanting to go. Seems like its always an older guy in new Vette.

i guess i live too far from Dallas and the nicer cars...no one ever wants to run out here and if they do, its not worth an ounce of gas.

I've had one challenge on 121 against a vette and I raced him twice and beat him both times. He wanted to go again and I had to go home so I exited and he rolled down his window and shot me the finger. Typical vette douche.

But I can't wait till my car is done and see if people will challenge me then.

I pulled up to a red light in Mckinney on 380 yesteday and a really nice 2001ish camaro SS pulled up next to me and started reving up. I couldn't resist. I had about 3 cars on him before I started to break for the next red light and he flew past me running the light.

Other than that I have had my car almost a year and no one tries to challenge. When I had my 98 z28 I got someone trying to race everytime I pulled it out of the garage.

Very rarely, but I did have a Camaro SS pull on me not long ago and I walked its ass.

I've had two... One was a some fucking gay Scion... whooped its ass***.


Then a month ago around 12am on Sunday morning I came up on a Black 2013 GT500 and that dude wanted to throw down. I knew I was going to lose but did it anyways.

Honestly all I get though is thumbs up and people drooling. Then ill get some that want me to drop it and do a quick 3 second pull.

When I had my 03 Cobra I got it all the time, mostly from slow cars not worth racing, but there were a lot of good ones too. Only once since I've had the GT, about a week after I bought it in April I came across a new Camaro with exhaust and I assume a tune, he took off before I did but neither of us pulled on or away from each other. My car was completely stock with the auto and 3:15's at the time.

I got hit up twice in one week by motorcycles! LOL! One was a motocross looking dirtbike through town and the other was a decked out Harley cruiser on the highway! Those are the only two I've had in the year I've owned my '12.
