Default On-Road Harrassment

Any of you guys ever suffer on-road harrassment while driving your Challenger?

I took my car for a nice 75 mile evening cruise last night. I savored and enjoyed every moment of my drive, even getting (and returning) a "thumbs-up" from a guy driving a fancy new Mustang. He had his dream car and I have mine.

Unfortunately, only about a mile from home, I had two guys in a battered old Chevy pick-up truck pull up next to me while cruising along at ~ 35MPH. They were revving the engine and driving real fast and recklessly, apparently attempting to goad me into hammering my car for their benefit. When I attempted to slide back in traffic, they slid back also, then swerved into my lane.

I was beginning to get pissed off. For one thing, the speed limit there, less than one mile from my house, is 35MPH. I'm not about to go drag racing down the street for the benefit of these clowns. Then they have the nerve to endanger me and my car. Finally, they turned off about a quarter mile from my house.

Anyone else ever experience this?

people use to do crazy things when i would drive my superbee on the highway.

they would shadow me to see the car and unintentionally not allow me to move
over to make my exit, happened a number of times until i just started riding
the right lane every time i had to use the highway.

Best thing to do is ignore them and not make eye contact. No sense in getting involved in something this dangerous.
