Was in stop in go traffic, finally get to a light where no cars are in front of me. Bugatti Veyron pulls up next to and revs the %&$%$ out of his car. I look over and I say nice car, I bet my pinto pulls chicks faster than that thing. He laughed and gunned it when the light turned green. I was in my 370z Nismo at the time. I am always constantly getting antagonized by Mustangs and such, but this was the first time someone driving a million dollar car thought my car was worthy enough to race or maybe just wanted to see how fast he/I was or attempt to embarrass me
. Either way if I wanted to race I would go to the track and if I wanted sick speed I will pick up another GSXR1000.
Now my wife on the other hand is complete opposite, she constantly antagonizes Cobras, Corvettes, Camaros etc etc. Everyday she tells me of a new escapade of her trying to race some monster V8. I told her today the reason they will not race you is that it will cost them $20 bucks in gas to launch from the light and you can not beat those cars on a straight line. Then explained to her how motors work, RWD, AWD, displacement, vehicle weight, boosting, cornering, suspension, braking, cooling, aerodynamics, etc etc. She seemed kinda down afterwards, then told me she wants a turbo for Christmas....go figure.....she's a keeper
