Why is everyone always picking on me?

Do all of you guys get mocks and smart *** comments from people that underestimate the potential of the v6 F-bodies, i hate that, everyone always laughs and says its a V6, and why would you mod it, i dont know about you guys but i like beating Rustangs and when they ask what u got u tell them that your 3.8L just killed their 5.Slow or i have raced a 305 87 camaro and beat it they asked what i have i told them and their jaw dropped . but why must we put up with these peoples comments that underestimate our engines?

dude, if its people who dont own fbodies and drive other car like hondas and say its a v6 then just tell em to **** off just because they cant have it why mock someone (or race em haha that will shut em up if u win)

mod your car so it looks/sounds v8, 99% of people wont be able to tell you have a v6 then, just dont race it at lights.. act like u obey the speed limit (ha ha)


if v8 owners make fun, tell em to go pick on someone their own size.. ha ha (thas what i do)


we as v6 owners can go pick on all the 4 cylinder cars out there

Nice advice...a V8 can't pick on a V6, but we V6ers can pick on a four banger.

Pick on an Acura RSX Type-S or a Nissan Sentra Type R and see what happens. They are just 4 cylanders against your 3.4, right?

Yea its pretty pathetic. I had that happen to me a lot with my V6. Now I get a lot of respect in the SS. The only thing I don't appreciate is the people with automatic corllas, civics, etc. telling me I should have gotten a stick, they don't even have a stick so shut the f.... I say ignore them, thats there problem.

I can kinda feel your pain. I get a lot of crap from little punk high school kids driving fart can cars. I just look at them anymore and shake my head. I guess I'm growing out of the whole racing scene................what am I saying??!!!! NO I'M NOT!!! I blow their freakin doors off. Now, that's satisfaction! But like you said, when big brother comes around...V-8's....I drive very very slow. hehe. Occasionally, I like to get my own doors blown off to remind me of what I actually have under the hood.
