I thought this was funny. I was on my way back from vegas on sunday with cruise control set at 65 and all of a sudden this mid 90s accord comes blowing by me then a little ways up he turns on his hazards all my friends and I could do was laugh at him.

That happens to me all the time.. I'm cruising along in lane #1 at or very close to the speed limit [usually because cops hide out ahead] and some shitty stock Del Slow or Geo goes flying by me in lane #2 at like 84mph, I hit my foglights a couple times extremely quickly and they flash their hazards and make a few jerky "unsafe lane changes"... wtf????

So, a cop goes cruising by me on the freeway... I'm cruising along in the slow lane at 70 minding my own business so he slowly passes me by... I see what looks like late 90s Volkswagen headlights zooming up behind me from the onramp.. looks like he's going 90+. Some kid in a turbo'd Jetta flies by me where I flash the fogs quickly to try and warn him about the cop... He slows back down to my side at 70, then proceeds to jump forward and backward... Like I'm going to race my automatic near-stock V6 f-body with 3.42s against a turbo'd V6 car at a 70MPH roll WITH A COP AHEAD OF US?? If I had an LSx, I wouldn't even waste gas on him...

Anyways, after being denied an easy kill, the kid then proceeds to zoom off, apparently to blow doors off aforementioned cop. I hope he did.

Default used to see that "revving at stationary objects" a lot

...at, of all places, a brewpub in San Rafael, CA (one of my regular hangouts).

Mind you, this is an average busy suburban downtown street, traffic going 20 MPH tops. Everyone is just sitting around drinking beer and eating food. Used to be sitting out on the streetside patio all the loud cars and bikes would rev going by, all Saturday afternoon long. The Harley packs were LOUD!
There's no parking directly in front of the place, so the "show-off" factor was a bit higher, I guess.

Doesn't happen so much any more (in fact, a harley did it just last week and reminded me of how much it used to go on). I think the owner had the police crack down.

Of course, they might've been revving for the benefit of the residential hotel across the street...

I had that happen a few days ago. Some kid in a civic was following every move that I made. I was on a busy street mind you. So he does the ususal fly by. Then I met up with him at a light. His windows were rolled down. So I ask him are you serious? Then he says back to me NO you would freakin kill me. All I could do was laugh as I think to myself why be so stupid if you already know? I dont know what these people think when they know better.

You guys think it's bad when driving a GM car... Try driving a Civic with an exhaust! I was cruising with my buddy in Idaho (late 90s Civic coupe B16B (200+ hp) swap, heads, intake, exhaust, LSD trans, track wheels, coilovers, almost no appearance mods, yadda yadda) and EVERYBODY revved at us and wanted to race... Guys in trucks, kids in Ford Escorts, Rangers, Dodge Stratus, etc... It's pathetic how people are. Naturally the Mustangs and other v8's didn't usually waste their time wanting to race, and my buddy didn't want to challenge them or even act like he wanted to race cause he knows they'd completely stomp him. His car smokes most other NA Civics in the area though so it's no problem, just an annoyance.

My neighbor has a turbo 240z and when he hears me fire up my SS, he runs out to his car, starts it up, and starts revving. Figure he's trying to match the sound of my blower whine with his BOV.

Now that would be video worthy.

My favorite was some kid in a sentra ser spec-v was riding my *** down the hill I live on and every time I would give it gas he would speed up and get right behind me so need less to say I got tires of his **** and when I got to the bottom of the hill and hit the stop sign there I turned off tc mashed it and started to get a little sideways and what do you know that little turd of a sentra wouldn't come any where near me after that.

I'll see if I can hide my video camera outside one of these days. It's the weirdest thing, almost feel like all he does is sit on his porch waiting to hear my car.
