I always wonder about all those people chasing cars with cameras and such in the middle of the streets. Have they got nothing better to do? Do they have lives? Where’s Darwin when you need him? Oh well, it’s kinda funny to watch them chase after cars like sheep.

If I drove a supercar and had followers like that, I’d feel like Jesus.

I’ll admit I’ve hung u-turns or jogged down a single city block to get a picture of a cool car...but this is preposterous.

Especially in Monaco? Don’t you kinda expect to see supercars there regularly?

I’d feel like that Range Rover guy from New York.

Like every damn day? I bet they see the same ones every week? How does it not get tiresome or boring or dull or whatever?

I haven’t even done that. If it’s gone, it’s gone and I hope to maybe see it again someday.

I do that plenty of the time, especially when I’m at home. Omaha is a small enough community that I will inevitably see it again.

There was this slob at a C&C event. He had this news video quality camera, and just held it at waist level with one hand. He said he’d been doing this for years (he also looked like he was single for said years).

What are these people recording it for? I have an answer. It's part of their pornography. It's for no one but for their own pleasure.

They’re mostly random High School kids who have car spotting Instagram accounts. They either go to car shows, or camp out in wealthy towns and stalk passing supercars. I’m pretty sure none of them are getting paid.

I was one of them for about two weeks before realizing that it’completely pointless and a colossal waste of time. You can only see so many 918 Spyders before getting bored of them.

The other down side is that I became so accustomed to seeing P1’s, that I would ignore a 675LT for being too mundane.

They’re enthusiasts just like you. No need to shit on them. People might wonder why you have such an affinity for the 944, but they’re not calling you a sheep, or asking for Darwin’s assistance.
