I just pop the trunk and let my "passengers" take care of things.

LOL! The ONLY time anyone is even close to my bumper is when I have the misfortune of being stuck at a stoplight....and when that light turns green, I'm gone!

See, and that's why I slow down. People tailgate to try to get you to go faster. Although I do like to pull through all the gears rather quickly, it's much more satisfying to meander along so the tailgating driver knows their tactics don't work on everyone.

But... there's just something also very satisfying when you leave someone in the dust...

How funny! I need me a Chim Chim.

When I think about passengers in the trunk, I always think of the trunk money.

I would say I'm either tailed or paced at least once every other day. Usually by someone in one of the current American muscle cars wanting to get me to race them. I just ignore them. They can think whatever they want to think about why I didn't take the bait.

Funny! All I get are minivans, SUV's, and the occasional "Corolla" types trying to hang with me.
