I was thinking the other day of the funniest driving-contest I got into. Admittedly, this happened on public roads. Don't remember the time of day but I do remember it was a backwoods lonely road. I was driving "spiritedly" when I came up to the ass-end of a Toyota Prius. Now, I was going to wait for a proper place to pass but before I can reach that point the Prius started pulling away. Now, at first I thought he was just speeding up for one reason or another but quickly it became apparent he wanted to play.
Without going into too many details that may upset people, let's just say that for the next 5 miles I had a very fun back and forth with the most badass Prius driver I've ever encountered.
So, keeping in mind this is the internet and you will probably get some third-degree if you post about something too crazy, what is your most interesting spirited-driving moment? Preferably a light-hearted moment.

Last weekend after an epic trip through the mountains, my rental camaro droptop was lined up next to my buddy's MR2 spyder at a red light. We dragged to the speed limit (no lie). The match up isn't even close even with a base model Camaro 'vert. The camaro has nearly 3X the HP of the MR2. It was a good laugh.

Recently I was involved in a stoplight drag race with a Honda Civic full of "youths". That sounds pretty bad and reprehensible... except I was on a 50CC scooter and nobody broke any speed limits.
I stopped at the light, and the civic pulled into the lane next to me. I looked over and gave the little engine a few revs (everybody in the car cracked up) and he revved back. I had a better start and beat him across the intersection but then ran out of power and lost overall (duh).

Was in a parking lot meeting up with some friends in high school and someone was revving his new car (A TOYOTA CAMRY LOL). He got out of his car and leaned against mine (F-150). I revved the engine.
He jumped a few feet straight up...it was terrific.

Driving my jeep home as it starts to drizzle. Pull up to a 3 wide stoplight behind a camaro, a corvete with autocross/rally numbers and stickers, and a sedan with 4 college aged girls checking out the camaro, who gasses it a little off the light. Next light it's the camaro left, corvette middle, me and my 4" lift mud tire jeep right. I pin it off the light (and by pin I mean it's a 4 banger with 4.88 gears) so I def beat them off the line before they realize what's happened. They both step on it but the modified corvete def pulls away. THIRD light, a balls to the wall supra gets in front of me, stares down the corvette, and does a sitting burnout for about 10 seconds waiting for the light to change and then LAUNCHES. At this point I pull into my apartment laughing my ass off. I still count that as a win.

Coming back from college for the summer, on a boring stretch of highway, I decided I was representing Ford against the Jag, the BMW, the Mercedes, and the Honda that were all close by. The European ones might have just been validating their own stereotypes, but I'm pretty sure the Honda guy had the same idea I did. We kept it reasonable, only really speeding when we had to pass traffic (who were actually racing in a slower class, as I decided) and keeping it within 10 of the limit the whole time. The Jag was the first to exit the freeway (retire into the pits) and the BMW got stuck in traffic and was never seen again. The Mercedes got too far ahead to know whether he was even on the same road anymore, so he was disqualified, because of course he was. The Honda actually turned out to be going all the way to my neighborhood, even though I don't think I had ever seen it before. He beat me, but that's only because he was the first one onto the final two-way, two-lane, no-passing street.

Me: NA Miata. Other: Viper GTS. Scene: Two lane onramp. Result: I stayed barely below triple digits while I watched him disappear.

Can't type a long story on my phone, but to make it shorter, we teamed up with an Acura TL to torment a road raging asshat in a Saturn coupe on I 80 across Iowa.
