Default NO Wave

I am cruising downtown, about 15mph, trying to avoid potholes, tonight with my buddy who just got in town and wanted to check the vette out. I see a vette coming up on my left, he comes by me, then drops it down a gear and blows by in up to about 50mph in a 25 zone on some hellacious streets of charleston. NO wave, just an indiot with a saturn used car dealer tag in a silver z06 with pipes. Probably a sales manager from the stealership I assume.

He was definitely ragging the car out over some ROUGH streets.
