Some time I go slow just to let folks know that even if I'm going slower than they are, I'm still fast than them on their best day so :gtfo2: |
I get this kind of driving from trucks and SUV's all time on 95. The part that sucks is that once I move over, they don't speed up. So I get back into the passing lane and they do it again. The next time they ride my butt, I tap my brakes pretty hard.
With tractor trailers, I try to give them as much room as they need, but if I've got no where to go and they keep riding my butt, well, we play a cool game of "how many gears am I gonna make you change up every hill for the next 40 miles." They usually get the idea by then since time is money. :tup: |

In S'pore,alot of Subaru Sti, VW Golf GTi & Mitsubitshi Evo's like to tailgate me.
|
Going home from the dealer I bought my Z from yesterday I was accelerating, carefully, up an entrance ramp to the interstate to the speed limit, or a little beyond, carefully, when I look in my rear view mirror and see an Infinity G35 about 2 feet from my bumper. I don't have 50 miles on the car yet! :eek:
|
hmmm... I have not had this problem, maybe because I just drive it to slow on the freeway, just nice to know that I can out run most of them if I want...

^i try to keep it between 5-10 over the posted limit

Trucks are ridiculous especially when they are trying to keep up or race. Usually I will stay even like they are really doing good until 3rd gear then I just leave them behind like they are sitting still. Going into heavy turns I have many people try to follow me and they end up slamming on their brakes. What is funny is that are these turns I have had vette owners slow or brake in the turn as well, I had one Audi R8 give up the turn as well and slow. Another one I hate is when people know you are coming through and moving faster, but they change lanes to block you off. I like the acceleration capabilities of the Z I can usually pass the car that was trying to block me as soon as they get over to block the clear lane. |

I noticed that you can't complete a sentence in the title of a post.

Keep in mind, I had only driven the Z a total of 30 seconds. Now, I'm used to the mirror blocking my view although it is disconcerting when I'm turning. I have to **** my head to look around it. Edit: I guess "c*ck my head" isn't allowed by the word filter so how about "I have to stretch my neck to see around the mirror during turns" |

As for tailgating... happens all the time. If I can, I usually just set my cruise at 70 in the center lane and hope people pass me. |
