Here's my contribution:

I was tooling along at 45 in a 50 when a Camaro came up alongside me with 4 teenage guys in. They were whooping and hollering at me: "Let's go! Let's go! Let's see what that piece of **** can do!" They were jumping on the gas and getting off of it, their car lurching ahead and falling back, as they tried to tease me into racing.

I was irritated.

We had clear road ahead and behind and were still doing 45, and I waved to them and nodded. I held up my right hand with 5 fingers, and counted down to zero while mouthing the numbers. Their excitement was vast. And just when we got to zero, the Camaro took off at its best pace... and I laid on the brakes as hard as I could. I slowed right down, as only a Porsche can, and the distance between me and the accelerating Camaro got large, fast... and I then resumed my cruising velocity. I saw their faces when they turned off at a light down the road: they looked pretty sullen.

Ha ha.

Heres one that always brings a smile to my face when I think of it. I was in my 951, with my sister in her Mustang following me. This new GT pulls up next to me and is obviously trying to entice me into a race, so I downshift and pull away from him easily, and got a really great lead, when I notice an obvious undercover cop car (crown vic, big antennas, lights in the back, etc.) so I slow it down to pace, when who do I see in my rear approacinh at breakneck speeds? Thats right, the GT BLOWS past me doing well over 100, where the cop swiftly pulls him over, with my sister and I both laughing our tails off. Of course, I had to honk my horn as I passed the good ole boy who had his head lowered in shame.

I have a different twist on the ricer story that I encountered this past friday night.

I was coming back from dinner when I see in my rear-view a riced-out Cavalier. The headlights were blue, it had neon on the inside, a body kit, and slammed to the ground. He was tailgating the crap out of me while I was in the downtown area. So I figured he was just being a pest. But at a stoplight he begins honking like nothing else - finally sticks his head out of the sunroof and starts yelling, "Hey! Hey!"

So reluctantly I put the windows down and ask, "What?"

He asked me specifics on the car and whether I wanted to sell it or not. I told him what it was (why offer to buy it if you don't know what it is?) and that nope - sorry, it wasn't for sale.

So he said, "Aww I want one just like that!", thanked me then drove off.

So that's different then what I expected!

On the other hand I do notice that those in big SUVs love to tailgate...
