Probably another boring thread, but I want to know who has been "toying" with you in the RECENTLY?

Recently, I had a Toyotal Avalon(05+) cut me off in the morning (intentional because I quickly realized his motives). Needless to say, he was no competition and was putted in his place. Now, I don't mean to sound boastful since there are plenty of other powerful vehicle out there. For example, months ago, an 06 Z06 blew me off and I hadn't a chance. :'(

Anyways, I don't "toy" with anybody. I just pass them up or get passed.

I toy with them. ALOT. I like that when i think the car might be a real competitor. But not doing weird moves like cut offs and stuff. I just sit there and if i see him in my ass i then floor it for a sohrt period (2-3 sec) and then back again in stelth mode just to test the reaction. In that case i get to toy with an evo9 wich when he got in front of me floored it and i did the same and he couldn't get away but nor i was able to pass. On the other side let's say i got "VERY toyed" by a mclaren slr.

Chrysler 300c. The one with the Hemi. While driving home from LA Sunday afternoon. Too much traffic to really get into any kind of spirited driving. Next time...

Since I'm a girl, people hardly ever try to mess with me.. although I mess with everyone.. I don't discriminate... LOL This past weekend, a tricked out Altima tried to pass me and I just laughed and took off. Poor guy, I think his girlfriend/wife was in the passenger seat...

I guesss I'm a little discriminant when it comes to female drivers. I stay away faaaarr . . . either way ahead or waaaay behind. Though, lately, I've had more female than male driving very spirited. I just assume their in a hurry.

I do noticed that when females try to "toy" with me, they're very indirect, when usually leaves me, the challenger, at a disadvantage. On the hand, male drivers are direct . . . and you know when they want to "toy."

Hey, houbmw, that's a "sick" avatar.

I seen some people with spirited driving in the rear view mirror, but for some reason, when they get close, they close down . . . or maybe I'm speeding up. Anways, the spirited drives seems to calm down when they eventually pass me.

You're lucky. I can't get any play lately. Would've loved to take on the 300c but circumstances were not favorable. I'll just bide my time.

It's funny but apart from my minivan escapade it seems like only two cars ever really try and mess with me, E39 540i drivers and the Merc E350.
