Default Accidental Wave?

Have you ever waved at a fellow vette owner while driving another car?

anyone else?

If I did, I wouldn't expect to be snubbed since I am not driving a Corvette as well. If I see someone waving at me, I wave back. Even if they are driving a ricer with a 7' wing and fake jet engines out the rear.

Oh, those those things on the back of ricers are WINGS! I thought they were PUSH BARS for when the nitrus blows up the motor and the fart can muffler blatts no more!
