^^^ Looks like that yellow Mustang almost hit the curb with his right rear wheel. He was probably showing off because he saw you behind him.

Yeah, my guess is he was trying to impress me. Not sure it was worth it though. LOL!

I think he was probably just excited to see a fellow Mustang guy. It's always fun to see others squirreling around in their sports cars. At least if he would have lost it (which it looked like he almost did), he would have just messed up his own ride on the curb. I suspect when good weather hits, there will be a lot of sports cars flying around. :D

You got that right. These guys just need to learn how to control that power. Hitting the gas hard in a sharp turn like that wasn't a good idea. But, I got a kick out of it and he didn't get hurt or damage his car. So, it's all good.

Spring Hill in Hernando County. All old people.

The first guy I got next to while holding the horn, the both of them just turned and stared at me with the most dead/blank expressions I've ever seen. Almost like they were upset I didn't hit them.

Second one the guy must have been in his late 80's, all I saw was the back of his head. Yup, the whole time he was going across the road all I saw was the back of his head, he never once looked at oncoming traffic.
That 2nd one...that's exactly what happened to me in my 2003 Mustang. Dude was in an F-150 though and I didn't have nearly the time to react as you did. He pulled right as was just about to him and I t-boned him. My car was totaled and I broke my leg. On the bright side...I used the insurance money as part of a down payment for my new 2016 Mustang.

Oh and I live in The Tampa Bay area as well. Drivers here are horrible.

those are kids, not thugs. lol

did he slap the trunk? That seemed like a lot of noise for a slap.

honking when they do that will just entrench the behavior
If they're not thugs now, they will be.

maybe. Not sure if he lives there, but if so, he should be making friends with them while he can. They should be admiring his car, not slapping it and running. If he can't make friends with them, then eventually he will have to move.

And you got it on camera! I lost the back end a little bit in a roundabout that had wet pavement, but as a driver if you are applying the gas linearly instead of just stomping on it, it is so easy just to dial it back a little and the car comes right back to you.
