Sorry to hear about your totally negative experience with the imports and Vin Diesel wannabe's at the track but I'm surprised that you were surprised.

Although idiots do drive American V-8 cars too, most import drivers are all show, image and lame driving. The over-revving, 100 mph fly-bys after you beat one by 10 car-lengths on the street, the decals, fart pipes, absurd wings and on and on prove this every day and it's part of why there is so much animus between muscle-car drivers and import drivers (known to all as 'Ricers').

If the average Mustang owner/driver who mods his car and races it on the street and occasionally at the track can't stand these import idiots, serious racers like you, Kevin, simply cannot relate to them at all and are rightly offended and annoyed by them and their silly little cars and stupid juvenile driving.

Sorry for your experience but it certainly drives home the reason for so much bad vibe between V-8 guys and import idiots like the ones you encountered (and probably frightened with a real car).

Anyway, thanks for the story.
