I thought I was a "grownup"

So I'm coming home from the yard where I leave my truck, just going about 40 miles an hour. I want to get a few miles on the ZX before I push it very hard seeing as how the engine has less than 20 miles on it. In the mirror is a second generation Camaro with a guy who must have a bad attitude. There is plenty of room for him to get around, but he wants to tailgate. I've just finished 350 miles on the interstate putting up with jerks like him so i stop rather abruptly at the light he damn near runs me over. This really fries his nads so he pulls up beside me, gives me as one finger salute, and revs his engine. I guess he figures all that noise will scare the crap out of an old fat guy in a really ugly 300ZX. I return his greeting (using the same finger) and point down the road. When the light changes he stands on his chevy and jumps out about a half a car length. I slam the car into low range and stand on it. By now we have traveled about 50 feet across the intersection. I pass him with the tires smokin' and at 6500 rpm push ther shifter into second and I get a little more smoke from th tires. I hit the red line and pop it into drive the didlo is about 6 car length behind me. I slowed down but he wouldn't come up to play. What did I learn? Well, the engine is a lot stronger than I thought I would be, and the old Z31 goes pretty good for a 2900 lb car. Oh yeah, it sure felt good to rip him a new a$$ !! :)
