Anybody ever outright asked you to show them what your car can do?

I got that too when I had my Stang. I had just got new tires and my offroad H-pipe put on and after the mechanic took it off the lift, he was like "yo dude, smoke em up." I told him had to be one dumb son-of-a-bit*h it he thought I was gonna smoke up $800 worth of 5 minute old tires. I did end up giving him a quick ride so we could hear the exhaust though and he was stoaked.
Gas stations were the worst though. Every body looks when they hear you rumble up. Then you would have people coming to talk about your car (which isn't bad considering how many a**holes there are, its cool to talk to nice people.) I DO miss the fun of my mustang.
