[QUOTE="LostPony, post: 15205286, member: 135127"] It has been ages since I was "called out" by someone, but it usually happens when I make my yearly trip to Baltimore for steamed crabs around my birthday. The last time someone tried to call me out was the day I drove my new to me '09 Z06 home from the dealer. I was minding my own business trying to figure out how to operate the radio as I was driving on 270 near Gaithersburg MD when I noticed a car shadowing me. I glanced over to see a 350Z pacing me, I ignored him as it was Thanksgiving weekend and police presence was high in the area, traffic was heavy, and I was pretty sure it would have been a waste of my time. Had the road been wide open in front of us, and not a holiday weekend, I would have likely run him a little. I did come up on a '03-04 Cobra 'vert a few weeks back near Leesburg at a light. He was directly in front of me and first at the light so I thought he might get on it, but even though it sounded good, and seemed like he was giving it a little more than most, when I accelerated and pulled into the other lane I think he just settled in to the posted speed so nothing happened and I felt like an idiot as I blasted by so I got as far over as I could to avoid having to make eye contact with him at another light. I enjoy giving another car a run and usually will do so from a light to the posted limit, give or take a few MPH, or on the highway as long as it is wide open. On the highway I give up pretty quickly as you can tell long before getting to triple digit speeds if you are faster or slower than the other guy, so I see no reason to risk an accident-ticket-whatever by going too far past posted limits.
