What is the most ridiculous car that ever tried you??

I really hate when I'm minding my own business and a car that has no business trying to race me, keeps on pushing his luck.(toyota corolla S, with the front bumper hanging off( Normally when this happens, I just ignore him but every now and then. I mash the pedal and leave them like 2 miles behind. So what happens 2 miles later, he will come flying past you like he walked you down. I'M LIKE YOU LOST" what's your most ridiculous event.

Driving on I-90 west yesterday I had one of those little turds trying to play my bumper at 80 mph. I know what he really wanted was for me to accelerate to get rid of him. So i clicked in my cruise control at 80, waited for an opening and slid over a lane to let him "blow by me". Within a half mile he was back in the center lane doing about 75. When I went by him, he tried to do the same thing again. Same result.

The most ridiculous was this morning. Some chick in a Geo Prizm pulled up on my right on a curb lane. On the other side of the light, her lane turned into parked cars. She really believed she was gonna jump me at the light. If she was cute, I might have let her. She wasn't. I didn't.

Aside from the never ending amount of Prius' here in California, everyday on my way home from work, I get this guy that's about 30-40 years old in his either late 80's early 90's Porsche 911. He literally tries me everyday.... & of course same story everyday. He then proceeds to get in my lane a car ahead of me and purposely slows down the traffic. He might have a chance if he learned to shift...MAYBE lol.

An Accord Sport tried me yesterday by tailgating me for awhile. I pulled a lane over and I could hear him suddenly floor it. I let him. He realizes I didn't bite and brakes until
I pass him then does it again.

Then he goes back to tailgating me so I just dropped a gear and disappeared. Literally felt like he was standing still in my rear view mirror.

Pretty much every single car I see on the road. Main reason I started taking the back way to work.

Kia Sorrento SUV full of teenagers

All I could think of was how stupid it would be if I lost my license because of racing a Kia Sorrento.

Haha these are great! My car is still technically on it's break in period but somewhere around 600 miles I had a run in with a 370z. They used to barely take me in my genesis coupe so I was tempted. Worked out a lot better for me this time as you might imagine.

I've also got a coworker who's convinced his new volt is an electric sports car. He's positive he would win "off the line". I like him enough to nod and agree it's a cool car!

Hahahaha!

Maybe I should get my wife to jump in her Volt and meet me on Outer Dr. for a stop light dance. Volts are QUICK of the line, since they get full torque at 0 rpm. Big difference between QUICK and FAST.

It seems like every single minivan wants to race from light to light. Those mom's have impressive reaction times.
