'Does everyone have this problem, or is it just me?'
I think you might be overly sensitive to driving your new car and are actually looking for other drivers to 'notice' you. Really, not everyone who passes you wants to race. Most other drivers don't care what you're driving and just want to get too where they're going Just keep you own ego under control and let them pass.

Im sick of these kids (and by kids i mainly mean people my age) trying to race me when im just trying to take my taco bell back to my house or bringing a girl to a movie or something. It just gets old, don't sweat the small stuff and save your gas. I hate them all, infact the ACD settings on the evo should come with a "stab" button, that automatically makes a midget run out of the trunk with a paring knife and stab the other driver.

Man, they have no sympathy for our clutches. I can imagine a sort of underpowered RWD car wouldn't though.This thread kind of reminds me of an article in the last SCC. It's humbling to be in a car with such high limits, you really have to keep yourself in check and not be tempted to test them on the streets.

I had my wife in the car. I know part of that is my fault but I'm sick of every one of Jerry's Kids driving a Geo Storm with a 4 inch tailpipe blowing by me doing 90 or riding my *** for no reason. Does everyone have this problem or is it just me? Nobody even acknowleged me when I was in my Trans Am, now everyone's got beef with me and my MR.well from personal experience when i had the 99 vr4 ppl was on my *** all the time i was stupid back then so i raced them every time
now i'm a bit older also my mom put me in a slow *** glant so i learned to slow down anyways just control your temper since you already know you gonna woop their *** "if" you try why bother to waste the time ans gas on them or just get a tag says no race.................

I get this a lot too. Having had so many speeding tickets in the past (in other cars) did wonders for making me learn to slow down when I got a letter saying 1 more ticket and I lose my license. The points are off my license now but 99% of the time I still drive at or below the speed limit. I learned to just let people like this go on thinking they are superior and tell all their friends they beat an Evo. Doesn't affect me at all.
