I'm not quite sure what this guy was thinking. I saw him pull out on my way to work and noticed he had Kosei wheels on the car. I figured he would try to play with me but I never try to antagonize "lesser" cars. Sure enough, when we merge on to the highway he gets in the lane next to me and does a fly by. I didn't even get on the gas since I was only a mile out the door and was not up to temp yet. Traffic builds up after that and typically doesn't open up untill the road expands into 3 lanes with turing lanes, but that doesn't stop him from weaving in and out of traffic. I change lanes and just use the gaps in traffic to get back behind him, and put it in third since we are approaching the road expansion.
After the next intersection, the road opens up so I move to get next to him. He of course hits the gas so I get to play catch-up. I'm in 3rd at about 3000-3500 rpm when I get on it, and proceede to blow by him like he threw an anchor out of the window. I figure that was enough to get my point acorss, but perhaps not. Traffic builds again and he gets next to me, rolls down the window and yells to me. It was hard to make out, but I thought it was "....I'll smoke you bro..." as he proceedes to take off and shoot through traffic, weaving in and out of single car gaps. Seeing how traffic doesn't really open up again during the morning rush hour, I hang back and drive normally. I am sure I pissed off enough people with my WOT romp already.
All of my buddies ask me about races and playing with other cars on the srteet, and I always tell them I rarely have equal cars try to mess with me. It always seems to be cars that know they have no chance, or at least should know. It seems all of the 370zs, Genesis coupes, Srt Challengers and the occasional 5th gen are the only cars that try to run me. Granted, I am a little detached form the scene and I don't go out to the race spots anymore, but I just don't see why I get harassed by slow cars.
