As my friend Chew once said "verbosity alert"

Back in my Alfa Romeo days, 1986ish, I got nailed in queens doing 130 in a 50. Luckily I had a cousin that was a city cop and he gave me a courtisy(sp?) badge for just such an incident. I also had a great story to tell the cop. So he wrote up a ticket with some mistakes on it and the judge dismissed it in court. I had turned my windshield washer shooter so it pointed towards the side, so it would spray on the car next to mine. My girlfriend and her friend were in the car with me when an early 70's Impala with four big dudes in it pulled up next to us on the passenger side. The dudes were not being very nice and started talking shit to the girls. That's when I let them have it with the windshield washer right in the ear of the driver. They did not think it was as funny as we did. They started to get out of their car with baseball bats so I floored it. The cop clocked me just as I was getting onto the parkway. I was going very fast when I saw this little flashing red light waayy back, maybe a mile. I new it had to be for me so I pulled over. The cop was very appretiative that I stopped. That was the other reason he let me off. He said that he didn't think he was going to catch up with me and thanked me for stopping. When I told him what happened, he said that I did the right thing especially with the girls in the car because you don't know what those guys would have done. I felt reborn. The girls thought I was the coolest. I got very lucky that night in more ways than just the ticket. Life is good.

I was running around downtown Austin a couple of months ago, on a Saturday night. Made a left turn onto a 3 lane street, turned in the left lane. As I made the turn, I noticed three Lexus iS 300's going in the center lane. All three of them had huge aluminum can mufflers. I past them and made 2 lane changes putting me in the right lane. As I completed the lane change, the light at the next intersection turned red, putting me and the lead Lexus at the line. I knew as soon as the light turned green, he was going to roll. I got ready by switching my feet on the break and put my right foot on the gas pedal. The light turned green and just I as thought, he rolled. I went on his move. I floored it and past him with ease. I kept pulling on him until I had 1 1/2 lengths on him. As we approched the next intersection, we stopped for the red light. We looked at each other and he said "I wasn't ready." I thought well dumb ass, you're the one that left first, but I said "Is that what you're going to tell your buddies back there?" The light turned green and I left with a smile.

Awseome stories. I had a guy get out of a car to kick my ass before.

I was in my 3000GT and I was severly cut off by a oil truck (the home delivery ones). I had to slam my brakes and came to a screeching stop. I had my girlfriend in the car and became incredibly pissed off. As the road opened up, I passed the truck (legally, mind you). Next were a series of lights and this truck was on my ass. I couldn't even see as far up as the headlights on the truck, didn't help that my car was lowered. We hit red lights on almost all of the sets of lights. Since he was on my ass so bad, I'd be rolling to a stop and then at a random moment, stand on the brake and come to an instant stop. This caused the truck the slam the brakes and almost hit me about 3 times. Well the fourth time I did this, he wasn't so happy with me. It might have been overkill at this point, but we were having fun with the situation. So the fourth light just turned red when we came to a sudden stop. Next thing we hear is the hiss of air coming from the truck, and the doors on both sides of the truck open, and big huge guys step out. Lucky for me, there was a right turn lane and I was able to get my lily-white ass out of there, or I don't think I would have looked so pretty after that. Overall, it was a fun time. But I was more than appreciative of that right turn lane.

Jack: I think I might try that idea of turning the windshield washer sprays. All I need now is a car that has them on the hood. In my 3000GT, one of them was clogged, so the other one would spray over the entire length of the car and hit whoever was behind me. Talk about distance on the highway...

About a year ago I was on the highway on my way to a party. My buddies were with me at the time. I noticed in my rear view mirror a truck coming up really fast. As he passed me up the guy gave me a long stare. Being the cocky bastard that I am, I looked a my buddies and just smiled. I knew i could take it. The truck was a extended cab and i had a single cab. The way I was thinking was that he’s truck was heavier and most likely we had the same engine. (5.7L) I thought I would have the advantage since i had a few mods. Anyway, I caught up to him, tailed him for awhile. Then I was time to embarrass this guy by going around him. As I tried to go around he switched lanes on me. So I tried again. And again he cut me off, but this time the slammed on his brakes. I lost control of my truck and I was swerving all over the hwy. I regained control and I went for it again and again he slammed on his brakes. Same outcome. I was pissed. He eventually let me get even with him, we both floored it. I had nothing, he smoked me. My only guess is that his truck had a bigger engine, maybe 454. To make matters worse I had to hear about it all night at the party, my buddies told all the guys there.

Severe road rage. Anybody that slams the brakes on another person neads a massive beating.

I did it, but going about 10 mph. Not 70 (or above) on a highway. That's just ethically wrong. Not that many people worry about that anymore........

There's a line in "Cannonball Run" that goes something like, "What is behind me makes no difference, I only care about what is in front of me." This was said after he ripped the rear view mirror from the windshield.

The first rule of Italian driving, Whatsa behind you no matter.

KIND OF SUCKS WHEN YOUR BACK THERE.
