Default 5th gen ricer fly bye!

Just a little vent... so this 5th gen does a ricer fly bye on another 5th gen.. ME! What the hell, coming home from work on the interstate and I see a red SS behind me... he speeds up coming up fast behind me! So I am like cool this might get fun, stupid young kid flys by me and I speed up to catch him, thinking he might slow down to play. He decides to make a pace of about 80mph and after I pace him for about 2 miles he just never slowed down! I said screw it, this happens to me EVERY time I see another 5th gen SS around here! freaking unreal, you dont want to race then cool... just dont do a douche bag fly bye. I get that enough by people in SUV's and civics trying to be cool next to the camaro.

Doesn't sound like a ricer flyby to me, just sounds like someone driving fast.

IDk... he was driving behind me a few cars back for a bit then decided to speed up pretty fast. Thats the only reason I thought things were going to get hairy, he flew by me but just kept going! IDK, seems to be the norm around here... I every time I see a stang, camaro, ect. they do this... lets speed game!

This, On one of the main highways near me (I-93 if anyone is from the mass/nh area) if you arnt going 80+ in the left hand lane your getting passed by everyone. I usually don't leave the middle lane anymore lol

Hell I even had this 300C trying to race me today, I havent had any real fun on the street in a long time! Gets frustrating in winter when you cant get to the track, I feel like a crack head that cant get a fix lately! I cant wait for spring time.
