What does the cat convert to?

I see the answer being I don't want to talk about it.

How much you thinking cat would be worth? Has anyone else sold their exhaust?

I had some guy pull up next to me and glare, take my picture through the tinted windows (not effective) and the follow me for a couple of miles sitting next to me in traffic. All the while I'm doing barely 40 because there's a ton of traffic but I intentionally stayed in a low gear to piss him off.

Possibly you can explain to me how pissing people off intentionally multiple times on public roads is going to reflect positively on our club?

You're pretty judgmental for someone who quotes a bible verse above his avitar about being accepted as a child of god. Maybe you should be a little more forgiving and show a good example for what you are attempting to represent.

I can certainly relate to Tracey here, I get plenty of disapproving looks from people (read: some old white people, sorry, it's the truth). It's not because of the way I drive, those who have gone on trips or driven with me know that I'm a conservative driver and tend to be towards the back of the group.

I'm guessing it's because I have a design and some lettering that they don't understand on my car, and some people assume that if they can't understand something, it must be bad. Therefore I must be bad. To those people, I usually give a smile and a wave. Just to call them out on prejudice.

@chrisbfrs has bought and sold a few. Put them on the forum market place and craigslist.

I may be interested in your mid pipe.

The cat isnt worth much. Its just basic fiberglass honeycomb innards. If it had platinum maybe worth money. But its just a basic stock catalytic converter.

Lets everyone calm down... we're all friends here

@40flash - I think @RedLeader was probably not intentionally trying to piss someone off 'to begin with', but rather, was driving around, someone became upset, and because they were upset for a rather inane reason, he made a point of it by continuing to do what was pissing them off. He wasn't doing anything illegal, he wasn't disturbing anyone on their own private property, and those people could have simply drove away, or even better, minded their own business in the first place.

@EZWood - I don't think @40flash was being judgemental as much as he was misguided but with good intentions. If @RedLeader was indeed going around with the intention to piss people off (I honestly don't believe this was the case...) then what @40flash stated is a perfectly valid question... nobody wants to be associated with/as asshats and douchebags, and if someone in the club was acting as such, I think it would be a legitimate thing to bring up; at least for the purposes of discussion.
