Why is it, that whenever I take the MG out, there's always some fool who wants to race me? It never fails. No matter what traffic light I'm queuing at, there's some idiot either behind me, or to my left...who just *has* to rev their engine 
Is it my loud exhaust, lurid orange paint, or just because sports car=fast?
I admit, I engage in some 'spirited' driving from time to time, but that's usually on deserted roads, where putting one's foot down isn't a problem. But, I'm not about to beat the hell out of that car at the traffic lights--trust me, I really don't want to rebuild the engine again, nor do I want my insurance to go up!

That being said...once I put the thrush muffler on and she got a nice little throaty growl going...I get challenged ALL the damn time by the ricer boys. 
Cracks me up to watch them hop their car at the light and squeal away disappointed I didn't bite.
