Default Mustang GT... a ricer?

I was on my way home from dinner tonight and I see this really nice silver GT. This guy had a kit, full suspension, lowered, full exhaust (or at least a catback with no cats). He had some money in this car. So I paced him for a little bit hoping he would show me what he had. BTW it was about 8pm on a 4 lane highway. He didnt acknowledge me at all and began to slow down. I assumed he wanted me to leave him alone so I did. I sped back up and moved along. 20 seconds later my girlfriend is yelling at me "go go go" and I hear WRAAAAAA as the stang hauls *** past me. I hesitated for a second till I decided to go for it. He got about 4 full lenghts on me before I stoped his pull and began to gain on him. But when I noticed the upcoming traffic was coming up pretty fast I looked down - I was going 125 mph. I shut down. But to me suprise HE DOESNT!!! He continued his speed of 120+ mph WEAVING THROUGH THE TRAFFIC like a dumbass!!!!
So why did I make the ricer comment? Because he was a *****!!!
He doesnt make eyecontact when I wanted to run, pulls a fly-by after I had left him alone, then (traveling at dangerous speeds) weaves in and out of traffic like a 16 year old in a ricer. Did I mention this guy was like in his late 30's?

I hate people who weave through traffic. I wonder if it even registers that they're endangering people minding their own business just to feed their ego.

if stupidity was painful, you'd never be able to get out of bed.

This has got to be the stupidest logic I have ever heard. Racing or winning a race is NEVER important enough to weave in/out of traffic & endanger others. I'm all about the racing, but I never even consider it if there is traffic around.

Your gonna end up another statistic if you keep driving like that.

What a fucktard. The Gt driver and TXZ28LS1. I hope that I dont run into people like this on the highway, especially since I have a 3 year old with me much of the time.

And these are the kinds of people that give street races a very bad rep. Cant you just wait until the road is cleared of traffic or go to some back road. I personally prefer the Interstate when it is traffic free. Why would you race when there is traffic all over?

Sorry TXZ28LS1!! But you're an idiot. I race on freeways, but not to the point where I'm having to weave through traffic going less than half as fast as I am. One day you will learn that the control you have over your car is decreased exponentially as you travel faster and faster.

I had the luckiness to learn this lesson on a backroad.

Besides, WTF does "zig zaggin in and out" have to do with winning races? You're racing on a populated freeway, not an auto-x course. The only thing obvious here is that your dumb *** should be behind bars. I'll be looking for your car at your local police auction.

He's obviously joking. Some people have no ability to see that just because he didn't say j/k.

wow... he may or may not be joking, scary part is there are plenty of people that think that way.. a few times now ive almost ben nailed by bozo's weaving in and out of traffic doing +40mph on top of my speed... pure insanity, but half the problem are those slow pokes traveling along in the outside lanes.. even so if some dumbass smokes me zig zaggin threw traffic they aint ever gonna be driving anything but a wheelchair

^ Yea, and they get flamed for being retarded too.

I thought you were joking at first; now I know your a moron. It may be what's happening, in california of all god forsaken places. That's where most of those statistic's come from. Ever since those fvcking f&f movies came out, the world has been polluted by jerk-offs like that; who some how enjoy putting the lives of others at risk when "racing". That's some bull right there, people need to grow a brain.

How many threads have we had as of late about the Cops bustin 20+ cars, kids losing thier lives in "weave through traffic" circumstances, and people crashing thier cars while "drifting" in parking lots.

Alteast when us Fbody owners run, you take every precaution, like all lanes open with little to no traffic, going to a back road, racing on dry roads/days, and someone videotaping.
Yes its still dangerous. but it is alot better then the dumbshit alternative's ive seen on here.
