When I'm out driving the P car I never stand out by driving faster than surounding traffic or any other actions.

It can get tiresome...
It's interesting because I often wonder what people think of me in public but I never care what others think when I'm driving because all that matters to me is if I like the car and how it drives. Although with that said, if I ever have to drive a beater, ricer, or an old person's car, I'm embarrassed as hell. LOL

around here people pretty much don't fuck with you.

Years ago, when my generation was just getting out of high school, kids with Hondas wold do that shit all the time.

If you drive like a gentleman (or lady) nobody's gonna bother you.

When somebody wants to race I accept. I see this just as fun. I also like to take on more powerfull cars, against which I have little chance. And they accept gladly, they get angry when I manage to keep up. I don't know why it is a problem for so many. I see this just as fun. Of course we need to know the limits and be reasonable, and if you are, those drivers should also not be problem.
did you seriously type that out? this is probably the stupidest thing i've read on the internet. what are you, 17?

Hah, I have done that, although not in a red Viper. I did it a handful of times in my "Simon and Simon" Z28, and once or twice in my MR2.
