I don't usually. If something about the car caught my attention (ex. exhaust note, wheels, hood, etc.), I would probably would though.

Unless I notice they have something done that shows they care I dont because a large number of the people driving f-bodies/vettes wouldnt know what any lsx motor was if you dropped one on top of em. Plus alot of em are a$$holes

True. I wave/throw the dueces and they're just like "What the hell?

Usually you can tell if an oblivious person is driving it.

Because it's usually a V6, or it's an ugly color, it's poorly kept, or a woman is driving it.

I was passing this guy the other day who also had a firebird, he just revved his engine really hard to show me mine was inferior. I tried to wave and he wanted to be a jerk.

When I lived in Shreveport, everyone I waved at would wave back, be it in my TA or GTO. Here in Tampa, it seems like the F-body guys are too cool to wave back, but the GTO crowd waves back, or honks if I don't notice them in time.

WTF is going on, maybe i just live in a town full of douche bags
i always wave. i've got to the point of screaming **** you *** at vette owners and hitting the switch and blowing them out of the water. i dunno what the hell most vette owners problems are... i worked for walgreens and actually had 2 different times of vette owners coming in w/ pictures for me to develop and me saying Oh, i have an chevy too, a camaro SS, only for them to stop talking to me like im in a mustang or some ****.

Its sad that i have more mustang friends than corvette friends... corvette is like the big brother of the camaro... lol.

Yea I did a 3 a.m. 150mph 2-3 mile run with a C5 vette around the beltline in Raleigh about a year ago. I never tried to pass him just stay on his bumper. After we slowed back down near the speed limit I tried to ease up to him to give a thumbs up but everytime I started a move he would hammer it and haul *** off. But that is the only vette out of dozens that would even play I'll give him that.....Usually those guys have a "I am better than you" attitude... They are a big reason I can't wait to get my stroked/nitroused motor done LOL......
