I had a VW Bug tailgate me last weekend. I pulled over to the next lane on the right and revved up. He tried to pull up and I punched it a bit. Needless to say, he was suprised. I slowed down again for him to catch up . . . weaving to let him know I'm ready play. He slowed down, too embarassed I guess. There were two chicks with him . . .

Sounds like slowing way the hell down is the solution. I think if I slow down and the punch it, I'll run into risk of getting a ticket if a cop is camping up ahead, or worse yet, get into accident. I figure its not very fun to racing or tailgate against a Z if its slowed to a crawl. I'd say 10% are ricers, the rest are just mom's in SUVs in a hurry, trying to plough thru traffic. I think a lot of them think "you have a race car. you should be driving faster. so i'll tailgate you hoping you'll speed up".

my solution is slam the brakes and engage in abs showdown..... always works cause they poop their pants cause they never expect a Z owner willing to get rear ended to get someone off their ***.... lol i dont recomend this if your the kind of guy who washes or takes car of their car in any way shape or form ( cause you eventually find out your abs is superior than a civic'c regualr brakes BUAhAhAhhhAha

I live in Northern Virginia and while the ricers can be bad, it's the yuppies in BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes that I get the most trouble from. I can't stand these yuppie idiots with their cellphone in one hand and their $20 coffee in the other thinking that their $40,000-for-225hp rocket can beat anyone else on the road.

They are looking for some response, any response for that matter. Laughing at them, reving your engine is giving them what they want,,to be noticed. I completely ignore them in every possible way.

Hello,
This thread is funny, because the reality of this is that it happens to all of us, and it should be something that makes us laugh rather than getting our panties in a bunch..lol. It makes me laugh out loud, so for me, i heart when this sh1te happens. This is lliterally what I do:
I'll preface this by saying that you have to determine how "safe" this is first, given the speed you're going, traffic conditions, how closely the jackhole is riding your gate, etc. I'm not an idiot, and I've never caused an accident, or received a ticket for this...Therefore, this move is not always the one to take.
Anywayz, someone else touched on this in another reply, but my method is somewhat different. Basically, I don't hit my brake at all, but determine which gear is best, and then downshift very quickly into it. I let it grab the gear for a split second, then check the body language, facial expressions (if daylight, and clear enuff to see) in my rear view mirror, of the a-hole gate rider behind me. This is the funniest part to me, as he/she/it not ready for this sudden and violent deceleration, and freaks out. You can literally see the front end of the car/suv, whatever dip hard as he/she/it slams on the brakes. Mind you, this all transpires within 2 seconds, and you only get to enjoy the drivers reaction for 1 of those seconds before quickly accelerating to avoid being hit. Those 2 seconds, and the few seconds leading up to this when you know that you're going to do all of this are so rad, and will make you laugh to yourself all day. If it doesn't do it for you, soo sad.

Then the only problem is you need to worry about getting keyed or something by the dumb-a$$es when they see your car parked somewhere. Jealousy is brutal.
I don't understand it though; I don't go revving at Z06s, Vipers, and 911s?!
