Default How about let me know....

I hate when guys decide we are racing and they don't let you know. I had this guy in a SHO pull upat the traffic light the other morning. He stayed a little back so we are not even and did not give any indication that he wanted to run. I was not even sure what kind of car it was, but when the light turned green he took off. I had my window down and I could hear him giving it heck so I hit it hard, caught up to him,and ripped third beside him. He did not want anything to do with me then and would not even drive up beside me. He probably went on the SHO forum and told the fairy tail about outrunning a '05 GT. What ever happen to the old head nod, let's go, thumbs up, engine rev; give me something. No big deal; just a little rant.

People that know they are most likely gonna lose do that. They jump the light and take off thinking you either wont race, or it will be hard to catch up and then they think they won. If someone does that too me I just laugh to myself and keep driving normal.

Excuse my ignorance and lack of motivation to Google "SHO". The only SHO I remember is the Ford Taurus from early 90's? Please enlighten my dumb a**
