Kinda short story. Passed this new vehicle with dealers tags on the freeway on my way home today. Looked like a nissan juke and vw beetle had sex and this was their offspring. Had to look it up, its a 2013 veloster turbo.
Anyway, after i passed him on the freeway(i was going 75mph), he kind of sped up. He was playing a little passive aggressive with me, as he would fly up quickly to within a carlength of my rear bumper and then slow down to fall back about 10-15 lengths back. He did this probably 5 times on the 15 mile commute. I just kept a steady 75 in the left lane.
We took the split to get into town and he does it one more time, but this time hovering on my rear bumper and not falling back. I slowed to the 55 mph speed coming into town, and this is where i decided to have a little fun with him and help him make up his mind to whether or not he wanted to race or not. I downshifted to third, held it at a steady 55 mph for about 100yds or so, then i smacked it to the floor and did a rolling burnout through third gear. I then let out, shifted to fourth and slowed down to about 40ish. He slowly passed me on the right.
As he was going by, i see him mouthing "holy shit", and gave me a thumbs up. I waved to him, and nodded as i slowed to turn in to a parking lot. I couldn't help but chuckle a little. Anyway, not a race, just a little fooling around, but had to share.
