Ok, heres what happened, &nbsp;I was coming off of the on ramp onto the highway the other day and there were a bunch of cars in the right lane so I just went to the left and started passing them. &nbsp;I wasn't flying or anything, I was only doing like 75 or 80 and the speed limit was 70. &nbsp;Well, I passed a white civic that was pretty decked out with the crazy body panels with taillights from another car and I guess he didn't like it because when I got back into the right lane he started went to pass me and then swerved into me like he was going to hit me or something. &nbsp;The asshole came about 6 inches from hittin my mirror. &nbsp;So I'm all pissed and I go after this guy and I guess he thinks I'm trying to race him but I think he had one of those lx or dx model because there was no compitetion. &nbsp;When I was about to pass he looked over and gave a gesture like he won or something and I felt like I was wasting my time with this dumbass so I just took off to where I was going. &nbsp;Whats up with these guys?? &nbsp;Do they feel threatened when a bone stock car passes them or something?? &nbsp;I wanted to ram his car off of the road but the only thing that stopped me from doing that was the thought of damaging my car on the 'count of some dumbass that don't know how to act on the road. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'> &nbsp; I just had to get that off of my shoulder....Now I feel a little better...... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/satisfied.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':satisfied:'>

WHAT A BASTARD!!! The only thing nearly close to that was a couple months ago, I was heading home from my girlfriends one afternoon, and I look in my drivers side mirror, and there was just this brown image. I look over my shoulder, and its a damn deer! It scared me so bad, but like half a second later, he hit the side of my prelude! I was raging pissed, but too scared to pull over...he might have brutally molested me, or just kicked my ass...

In a word........f*ck em !
Ya cant win with these fukwits so dont try. Just sneer at them and wait until they go too far. Then you can keep your cool and get them done.
Just stay secure and grin and look down your nose at them. Maybe even a little yawn and a finger.
That or chase em and terorise them like me hehe &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

I hate peopl like that! I love it when people are friendly. Today a lady in a White Eagle Talon was behind me. Nice looking girl! She sped up beside me and reved it up. SO I sped up. After that we stoped and talked for a few. Nice people rule!

Yeah, i passed a 2000 mustang GT on the way home from work tonight. When I did I guess he thought he would try to race me. I was like WTF?? Ok, your 260hp 4.6 V8 vs. my 2.4 4cyl. pushing around 170hp. I shouldn't have even wasted the gas, but I wanted to see him get on it and see how I'd keep up, just outta curiosity. HA, I shoud've saved my gas, He just got up and ran away. But anyway, about that guy swerving at you. Dude that's just wrong. If you think you have to damage the car you're racing to even have a chance at winning, you should just walk everywhere.

Yeah, i know what your sayin
thats gay when people act like that.
They see ONE car go by them, at the SPEED LIMIT, totally stock and they try to race.
Thats really gay how he almost hit you tho...going like...80...he coulda killed you both...its seriously stupid when people take it that far.

what i do is not even look at them. that's the worst thing you can do is when they finally pass you is to look at them. you can either A) look down at your passenger floor board and act like you're getting your CD book (while watching the road a lil bit) B) laugh like Krusty the Clown from the Simpsons extremely loud C) start shaking violently like you're insane and you have no place on the road, but in a straight jacket at a nut house. &nbsp;i promise you, one of those three will either piss him off, make him laugh and forget about it, or just make him wonder what the hell just happened there and he'll be thinking about it for the rest of the day. that's how i deal with 'em &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sly.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':sly:'>

Its kinda hard to ignore someone when they pull of some ignorant stunt though. &nbsp;I think I did OK by not running him off of the road and possibly damaging my car.

I agree that the guy was try'n to be a hardass by cutting you off as closely as possible.. &nbsp;so gay... &nbsp;But come on now, it's all fun and games to race when someone switches lane and punches it to pass. &nbsp; Besides the rush, how else do you wanna test out what your new exhause or turbo can do?! &nbsp;on a empty highway by yourself?! &nbsp;yeah, i thought not... &nbsp;just dont take it too high. &nbsp;Then after you win, slow down so you can give a quick stare at the guy and then dont forget to point <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> one of those quick flick of a wrist ones. &nbsp;That just make all the money I spend on parts worth while.. &nbsp;lol.. but making the other guy to want to shoot you in the head..

it's all good

Having a little fun here and there is Ok but acting like a jackass is just plain stupid. &nbsp;He wasn't cutting me off, he was swerved into me as he was passing me. &nbsp;Thats just plain stupidity and I now in some places where people get shot for stupid sh*t like that.

Really you shouldnt bother. Shit like that is unexceptable. In a situation like that I think there is only two options. 1. Just ignore it cause you know your better then that. 2. Follow him at a distance and when gets out of his car kick his ass or at least front him on it. There is no way im going to let someone put my little kittie in danger like. Thing you have to remember is that your on a hwy so you have to be carefull of others. So just remember that.... just cause some jackass put your car and life in danger doest mean you should all try to get him back on the hwy cause they you are putting everyone else on the hwy in danger. (what a run on sentance)
