Default Shot down an aggressive Challenger R/T

This isn't much of a "kill" story but im sure everyone has had this happen sooner or later. I was enroute back to my house to get ready for my shift (nights) after making a quick run to the gym. Took the Camaro out because it was a nice day. The road I was traveling on was a 2 lane, 2 way. The speed limit is 50 but I was probably going approximately 59, so its not as if I was going grandma slow. I can see in my rear view mirror a black car coming up behind me at a high rate of speed. The vehicle gets right behind me and I can see right away it was a new(er) Dodge Challenger R/T. He is continuously riding my tail. I sped up just a little bit to see if it would satisfy his aggressive driving but to no avail because he got even closer. As we go along we approach a straight away and at this point he decides to pass me. Well I was a little ticked off so I let him get to where his rear bumper was next to my front fender and I quickly down shifted and hit it. Passed him like he was sitting in a parking lot. Got to about 85 extremely quickly and I immediately shut it down. He did not attempt to catch up or pass again. He stayed right where he belonged, bus lengths behind me. Im not a fast or aggressive driver (anymore) but sometimes bullies have to be taught a lesson.

I used to think everyone was trying to race me when I was 18 years old, hell.... I'd even rev on gramps in the caddy if he tried to pass me. Now I realize 99.99% of people dont give a **** about racing you on the streets.

If you gotta punch it cause someone was riding you close okay, but honestly if he didnt tag along that probably tells you that it wasnt what you thought it was and most people tend to back off after they see a stupid driver acting wreckless. (of course im not saying you were a stupid driver )


But i'll give you what you want..... OMG BAD *** BRO!! THOSE RTS are like 10 SeCoNd RiDeS!!!! PWNT his ***.

No, the douche move was you punching it when a guy tried to pass you on a 2 lane to keep him behind you because you had road rage.


Another douche move was stating that the R/T belonged bus lengths behind you. I understand liking your car and brand loyalty but fbodys are cheap and by no stretch of the imagination belong ahead of a New(er) Dodge Challenger R/T.

There are a lot of holier than thou d bags posting on this thread.
OP, I probably would have done the same. I hate when someone feels the need to ride your *** when you yourself are already exceeding the speed limit.

Since your a cop, do you arrest them if they beat you racing?

OP said he was doing 59 in a 50, and the R/T was catching up to him quick. If a guy is doing 80 in a 50 then rides the *** of the car in front (when he had plenty of time and room to change lanes beforehand if he wanted to pass) that sounds like an arrogant douchebag to me.

I'd blast him as well OP, but I would put a bit more than a bus length, I'm no cop
