a Clio Sport (172 i believe?) tried to race me!

I was just casually speeding in the fast lane, keeping a safe distance from the car (clio) in front and he braked to about 25/30mph then floored it! Obviously, me being me, i decided to see if he wanted to play..

It was weird though. He was in front, tried to out accelerate me, then let me past. After he let me past he did everything he could to try n get back in front. He tried getting up my rear .. didn't work. He tried to undertake .. i blocked him once and out accelerated him another time.

The only real part of it that i didn't like was when i had to slam my brakes on (some idiot swerved in front of me, realized i was there then moved back into the slow lane ) and the hazards came on

Safe to say I changed that setting as soon as i stopped!

.... all of this took part on a private road ofcourse

I was pretty careful, lol.. but just to clarify..

I wanted to see if he wanted to play cards, but he just kept accelerating so i assumed that he did not. I was sad about this

i didn't intentionally block, i moved across to let him passed me as he clearly wanted to be in front of me but he was being a naughty boy and was trying an illegal undertake. And i out accelerated him up to the speed limit..

I was doing the speed limit in the fast lane and an idiot doing less than the speed limit clearly did not check his mirrors and my quick reactions stopped a collision. My driving instructor would be proud!

Nope, was blue with daft stickers.

I'll keep an eye out for that one though, people like that are just dangers! lol they should drive around with hazards on at all times

I'm going to sound like a grandad mate but don't race people like that because you get tunnel vision and you don't check as much as you should your mirrors and spacing on the road.

A little drag race onto the slip road is okay but don't entice or let your self be dragged into a speed race.

Just do what I do (dont always work)
Just look at him and stay doing your speed
Watch him hit the pedal and go faster and still dont try catching up
Then pray to god he has either hit someone and aint going any further or been pulled up by the old bill...At this point drive past at the same speed and share a little grin with him and be on your way! LOVE IT!

praying for him to hit some else is a bit harsh lol, maybe a wall or something ..
