Porsche Club (PCA) is the same way (or worse). I was a member/owner/racer for a long time and you meet the whole range of owners. The funny thing is that the snobs don't know anything about their cars and they don't want to talk to you about them for fear they might sound stupid.
Some are enthusiasts and others own them as jewelry.

Default Knowledge always trumps attitude

I love it when people think they know. Sometimes it's the booze talking, whatever.
I have a good friend who says, "NEVER ARGUE WITH AN IDIOT, BECAUSE THEY WILL DRAG YOU DOWN AND BEAT YOU WITH EXPERIENCE!"
I take my hat off to you Bill.

Wink

and the other guys didn't even wave, that is disgusting. I bet they were guys that wrote a check for their cars,probably cannot even change a tire much less build a car.

Ok, I admit to already having a couple of glasses of Pinot, but does a "check writer" enjoy their Cobra experience less than a "builder"? And what does "builder" mean? Is that the original designer, the casting foundry, the component suppliers, the roller manufacturer, or the assembler that drops in the drive train .

Oops, I'm guilty.

I've got one that kinda fits the scenario as well, "Arguing with a wanna-be motorhead snob is like wrestling with a pig in the mud...after a while, you realize the pig enjoys it!"
