Speeding too fast to keep my eyes off the road in front of me. Plus, I alway catch them going the other way and by the time i raise my hand, i don't think my hand goes up fast enough for them to see (the speeding thing contributes to this problem). i'll work on my reflexes.

Oh, saw this cherry Black M3 Convertible w/ the top up the other day on 280. A little asian "kid"... he wouldn't take me seriously... didn't give me much of a race.... BASTARD!!!!!

Even since I got the cae i 99 I've been flashing a "V"-tec sign at my fellow S owners. Sometinmes there is a wave, sometimes there isnt. Most have been cool. The first time was really funny though because we saw one facing us at a light taking a turn from El Camino to Mathilda. As they made the turn the passenger saw our ca and waved frantically as my wife did the same back... Of course that was Nov 1999...not many of us back then,,,

Still, I do still wave to all S2000s that we encounter so long as there is a chance they will see us. Make the effort, you will be rewarded...

Clearly not everyone is social, particularly in our part of the country. Many folks, even if they're S2K owners, just want to live in their own little world.

I've noticed two types that never wave back to me.
1. The older, maybe grey haired, gentleman in the S2K.
2. Hot women... well they don't wave back regardless of what car they drive.

I almost always get a reponse. Must be the hood. But then again, I am strikingly handsome and modest.

I always wave if I see you. If they don't wave... I don't feel like a dick... I know they are. I laugh and roll on.

Hell I wave to other drivers in roadsters with the top down. We're a community... let the poor poor bastids with hard tops and softtops up live their lives... I'm alive.
