I get alot of rednecks in modded trucks that do the same to me. I usually just ignore it but occasionally ill dump out my new clutch and show them a proper quattro launch.

I get ricers who do that crap all the time. A few whom I've chosen to spank. I'm just glad a stock Audi can at least put Saturn Ion, a Civic and a Eclipse in their places, otherwise I think I'd be selling the Audi.

I'm not sure if I've ever had someone rev their engine at me. Sometimes I can tell that someone is going to floor it to get in front of me after a stop light, and most of the time I can prevent that from happening.

I like to give them just a little head start, build their confidence up, that way when they have to make that split second decision to shut-'er-down, they've really learned their lesson properly.

I've had two people in new lexus' do a little sprint with me on the highway late at night... I'm not sure why they need to go faster than a '96 when they're in an '09 '10 lexus, but I always make sure I'm ahead at the end .

If it just more, or isn't a race suppose to end when whoever hits 60mph first. I don't feel like doing 100mph in a 45mph zone. But I've run a few guys and shut it down, just to have them continue on until they where specs. I didn't realize we where racing a quarter mile.

That Saturn Ion I posted about, did just that I had two car lengths on him, shut it down at about 62-65 and then he he continued, way way out ahead and then turned on his flashers, WTF dude. You lost.
