Car meet - is this normal?

[vaporbluestang]

Hey all,
Just wanted to let y’all know about my recent car meet which was few weeks ago here in CO. I’m not trying to make this political thing but being a person of color it’s just not right for anybody to be treated this way.
So there was a small meet up organized for a 4 year old boy who’s undergoing 3rd heart surgery so his mom posted on Facebook forums requesting anyone with a car who’s willing to show up before his surgery. So I went there at mentioned time and there were other cars few bmw, corvettes, Hondas, Supra n then came few Lamborghini. Btw I was only Mustang there. Kid was looking at other cars n he asked if he could sit in n start up car I said of course n he did few revs.. all was good n then when the event almost ended I was driving back home this corvette guy said I wasn’t WELCOME in next meet.. I’m like WTF I told him I was there for kid not for him or his meet(he wasn’t even the organizer) Just wanted to put this out there still surprised as to how people still think man

Some car guys are just dicks......Doesn't matter what brand it is. I bet he assumed you were revving just to be annoying. Tell him the truth, if he doesn't understand, them F$ck him. Not worth your time........

I was at an all Corvette show a few weeks ago in my ZR1. Some guy left in his VERY loud Z06, ripping out of the parking lot. You could hear him blocks away, still getting on it.

The Corvette club President, who must be in his 70s, turns to me and says " What an asshole. Making us all look bad." I thought, I get it, but chill out......

I wouldn't let this keep you from shows. Your going to run into jerks like this, but you are also going to meet new people with the same love of cars as you.

What was his objection to you? The revving? Or race?
Regardless, he's an arsehole anyway.
BTW Who exactly was the Karen? Anyone in authority somehow, or just a jobsworth?

I totally agree.. I know the car we drive we are emotionally connected or whatever we care for it. I understand when some people doesn’t allow us to look inside or sit inside.. I get that.. since it was a kid who was gonna undergo surgery for like 3rd time I agreed for him to sit n rev my car but yeah some ppl are as*holes man smh

Don't worry about it! 1 asshole in the crowd ain't that bad an average!

Soooo.. First off, that sounds like a very cool thing you did for the kid. Good on you!
So did the kid get in a bunch of different cars, or just yours and skipped Vette-boys car? If he chose your Mustang and not his, well then he was jealous of you having a cooler more appealing car.
