Rubbin' is racin'

Dusted a 87 Z28 today with my 1990 IROC-Z. Rubbed a little paint with him though. He tried to run me off the road So I pushed back and gave him a little doughnut on his driver's side door. Sore loser!

I was out cruising one night with my friend in his 87 stang,a 96' impala SS,67 camaro,and an 89 formula and this guy in another stang tried to run my friend off the road in his stang for no reason at all. He had no idea the other 3 cars where out with us so when he pulled into the parking lot to have at it with what he thought was just me and my friend in the stang when 3 other cars pulled in he left pretty quick..but i mean what the hell kind of mentality do you have to have to try and run someone off the road?

Yea, he thought that I was gonna avoid him and go into the ditch. But I'm not gonna total my car to avoid his offense. I'm debating whether or not to report it to insurance, or make him pay one way or another. If I repoet it then I'll probably pay too. So I'll just do things my way.

You should've lightly applied the brakes or take your foot off the gas and turn your steering wheel to the left a little to tap his right rear quarter panel. This done correctly, his car would spin out, and youd pass him on the left as he would do a 180 to your right....(you know the trick that cops due to *** up speeders)

That's a great idea. And then the other guys spins out and possibly gets killed. As long as nobody got hurt I say the right thing was done. It's too bad his IROC had to be damaged by a moron but that can be fixed someone getting killed can't be.

Yea backroads are hard as hell to drag on, but tons of fun for a long distance road race. I would have had him passed in another second or so but he obviously dident want that. His 87 Z28 is worth about $200 american. (not flamming 87s, this kid's car is junk with strait pipes and an out of tune 305 that backfires) he still thinks he's faster than my 1990 IROC running in top form!
