Old Guys, Fast Cars...

Ok so in the past 2 days I have being a doing a fair bit of driving and I have encountered 3 cars that I was looking forward to an encounter with... first one was a new Viper and as I pulled up beside I look over and its a guy I would say in his 70's. He was doing EXACTLY 80km/hr on the highway. He had to have had his cruise set. Gave him the ricer nod and he just looked forward and kept on his merry way going slower than every other car on the highway.

2nd was a WS6 Trans Am with Alaska plates and huge rubber on it had to be in the 300 width on the back, guy driving had to be in his 60's or up same thing doing 90 same thing ricer nod same reaction "Stare ahead do not acknowledge the ricer in the green civic"

Last was a Corvette, 60+ gave him a taste of the BOV and he just smiled and waved and carried on his merry slow way.

Do you think guys like that ever drive their cars or are just now able to afford a dream car and just putt around town admiring themselves in the reflection of other cars passing them?

Do you picture yourself as one of those old guys with a fast car putting around? I have no idea what I'll be driving when I'm retired but I will tell you if it can go fast.... I'll be going fast.

Berz out.

I guess for those old dudes, it's more of a image crisis thing. They want the looks and don't care about the speed.

If your 60, I think you probably had enough of "speed" in the past fe decade already.
If your 60, you have nothing to prove on the street level.
If your 60 with a Viper, why mess with a green car that you can't tell if it's a Honda or Hyundai.

Honestly, there's too many of these punk kids out there that wanna race an exotic or fast cars. I'm lucky enough to be able to drive a Ferarri often on weekends, and I can tell you that your not the only one that wanna race. I've encountered more than a hand "full" of these "ricer nod" just from a 1 hour drive from Richmond to Burnaby.

No I like fast cars... and I like seeing people drive fast cars the way they should be driven... my green honda has nothing to do with it.... although it is fast.

Why are you going around trying to race these fast cars anyways? They're just looking at you and laughing.

Grow up - just because somebody doesnt want to street race your Civic doesnt make them any less worthy of their cars.

It's got nothing to do with street racing. My observation is that for the most part old guys with fast cars drive like pussies. As for the track days I can't see old guys ripping around on a track at all.

If you read my initial post I posted 2 questions at the bottom THAT is what the discussion is about NOT who will race me where and when.



Do you picture yourself as one of those old guys with a fast car putting around?

There is the question in case you missed it. I'm pretty sure I won't be driving an "exotic" car at that age... probably something comfortable but it's hard to say what cars will be like in another 30 years.
