I also know that it got the attention (road we were on is monitored 24/7 w/CCTV) of those who will take action next time he makes himself available, and don't ask how I know.
not everyone on the road knows a Z06 is 500hp, but using it to insert yourself between traffic (multiple times) on a 2 lane limited access (cement barriers on both sides) isn't the way to keep his Z06 in one piece!
I just thought he was a member, and I happened to come to a stop after his display! I wouldn't even consider pulling out a cell phone or a camera on the limited access highway we had just exited.

hmmm..sound like 50's Russia. I get cut off a little every day and I would vastly prefer our freedom to the all grey world of, what did he say, driving like everyone else? Ugh.
And, DaveK, what is with all those threads you started with test tst etc.
maybe OT is right about this side of the fence?
What are you testing other than people's patience?

All this yapping and you still haven't said exactly what happened and what you want. Most people here are sympathetic to a straight shooter who had a bad experience. But this is a car enthusiast forum not a wooly identification exercise of who might have done something wrong in your view.
If it was so terrible and you had a cop behind you at the place you say you were stopped or where the corvette was turning at the stop light right in front of you I am absolutely amazed you didn't flag the cop down and have him arrest the guy rather than vaguely implying things here about how terrible it was.
And yes I am asking you directly how you do know what you stated here WITHOUT any threat:
"I also know that it got the attention (road we were on is monitored 24/7 w/CCTV) of those who will take action next time he makes himself available, and don't ask how I know."
Also what vague sinister reference to tape are you making--since clearly if you wouldn't even pull out your cell phone you weren't the one taping the event and if you had a passanger why weren't they pulling out their cell phone? Is this the famous CCTV tape?
If you have something that deserves help say it outright otherwise stop snooping around for what people here know or don't about owners of cars.

it's apparent that no one here knows this Z06, sorry for your time!

Still no candor. And apparently there certainly is a threat to him coming from your myterioussources of authority through YOU or perhaps your message or even with our assistance if we tell you anything. Reading is fundamental which is why I asked if the tape was the CCTV tape after negating that it could, under your own words have been made by you---again a question you choose not to answer. So yes without disclosure of the threat, the meassage, the interest of the gendarmes, what you plan to do, why you didn't stop the cop (explaining assumptions which should be easy to do if you were fully candid) what tape you saw how you know about the CCTV tape etc. etc. etc. you are wasting our time and I would be stunned if anyone should be foolish enough to give you any information here. Maybe you just want to warn him about the dangers from the authorities he may be in (even if not because of you) but your tone and refusal to say something as simple as that make me very dubious as do your amazingly altruistic thoughts of snapping his picture right after you had an apparently scarry driving experience in order to let him know a cop could have seen him.

You want to hear my take on it? I believe th eoriginal poster was just being neighborly by telling whoever the owner of this car was, that the cops are looking for him. What's wrong with that?
Some of you guys are just too much.
