America’s Cars Are Getting Faster and More Efficient

First, what do hundreds of quiet cars have to do with one really annoying muscle car that likes to rev their engine at stop lights to show how cool they are?

Second, how do I know that I need to roll my window up when I arrive at that stop light?

Third, it takes about 10 seconds to roll all of my windows up. By that time my ears are already ringing.

Sorry, I had a car pull up beside me yesterday under a bridge and rev their engine. My ears are still ringing.

shrug, guess I can't always can't always get what I want.

If it's too loud, you can always call in with his plate. Enough reports and he can get ticketed for an illegal muffler. Happened to a buddy of mine back in Texas, and he totally had it coming.
