did you miss the "all this b/c of a penny" thread; not a good idea. i say dont even give him the time of day, he wants to run you so bad, just **** him off by not giving him what he wants. one day hell crash his POS ford and/or get a ncie ticket and you can laugh about it.

lol is it a white one? Whenever Im on 101 south in that general area I had a white lightning ALWAYS trying to race me in the middle of the day. I usually had my gf in the car and she hates when I race my car like that so I usually ignore him, but one day, no girl, and no traffic, and I DESTROYED that thing from a 50 roll to 90 by about 4-5 cars.

if its on the 101 going south towards gilroy or something, or maybe the 280 north of cupertino, i'd just have the radar detector on and be extra vigilant. otherwise, i'd fear a terrible assraping if caught anywhere around san jose. i've had some close calls going WOT.

its probably not worth the risk unless you are pretty sure you can rule out the presence of any cops.

I say you put the paisa in the lightning in his place. seriously tho, a couple of days ago some fellow paisas lol rolled up next to me in a Lightning looking at me like they've never seen a corvette lope'ing away running on 315's in the back so i asked if they wanted to go on green and they said "nah". But they then proceeded to drive behind me until they went for the infamous "fly by" wich is where i dropped the hammer and put a couple of buses on them within a second or two LOL
