Revving your engine....????
is this some sort of "nice car" signal I am unaware of???? Whenever I pass a car with mods, whether at a stop light, or stop sign or wherever, they always seem to rev there engine. And they do it when im going the complete opposite way on the street that they are. so i dont think they are wanting to race me. But who knows...anybody know if there is another meaning for this other than the "lets race" meaning????

MMMMM my turbo so soon.... i can feel the ownage of stupid ponies... hmmmm

Rep Power: 319 Only time I rev at cars is when its like a freakin badass car like a Viper or the Shelby AC Cobra I saw the other day. I rev & when they look over I give them thumbs up & try to get them to take off, then I grab a few napkins out of the glove box...
Oh yea I also rev at stupid ricers just to screw with them cuza they get all exited & take off like bat outta hell & I just take off normal, endless entertainment

when someone does that, or when they pace me, I just slow down or switch lanes away from them hopefully making them feel stupid.
When it's at a light, I give them the aggressive look and make my weak car purrr, and when the light turns green I make a left or right turn and watch them take off at 100mph for no reason.
It's the best when you're at an intersection with a left turn signal that goes off before the green. I make my left and they go straight while people in the opposite direction are making their left turn. Then the guy is stuck in the middle of the road blocking traffic.
LoL but only if they start it.
