Default Why?

Why do some people even try. I'm at a red light and one of those Toyota FJ Cruiser's pull up next to me, rolls down his window, and I guess he heard my cam and starts bumping on the gas. The road goes from 2 to 1 lane right after the red light. On green he takes off, and I nail the gas and leave him in the dust. The speed limit is 40 and I'm going about 50 and he starts tailgating me. He finally turned onto another road.
Why cant I ever get someone with a real vehicle to race me. All of the new Mustangs, Camaros and BMWs are driven by elderly people who have no interest in going fast. WTF. Sorry for the rant. Lets hear some other stories like this.

Nobody will race my truck, on the track or on the street. I seem to get lined up against race cars on test n tune at the track. I need a new truck that isn't known around town.

Im pretty proud to say I don't have that problem here in CC as I know a lot of fast and faster cars that are always down to race. Now for the ricers in this town they don't really want much when you blow by them with a nice whistle under the hood. lol

Thats a long drive just to get my butt kicked lol. I may be close some time next year. I may have DB Rods build a Coil over 4-link and I may have to test it out. And Ill have my procharger on by then as well so it would be a fun race for sure. lol
