Forced kill on a wounded Bird...Grrrrr

Well guys..the T-Bird grenaded a turbo last week..so its not a speed demon right now.. I dropped Methos off at work..and was driving back home. Bout the time I got to the light near his work, a prick pulled up behind me in a lil ford Ranger truck...black headlight covers, rapping hard on flowmasters, and I just looked back in my rear mirror...and looked away. Well, the light turned green, I accelerated normally, and the bastard went on the right shoulder to cut me off and get in front of me. I had to slam on my brakes to keep from slamming into him. He had all the lovely and STUPID performance stickers on the back windshield..maybe he COULDNT see me. I cussed and proceeded to ignore him and make my crippled bird way home. Ill be damned if he didnt get next to me and revving and trying to egg me into a race..I was like NO,shook my head and continued on my way. Then he slammed in front of me..and cut me off AGAIN. I was getting really pissed as well as a bit perturbed that he was risking both my car and his own P.O.S with the aftermarket stupid clear taillights. I turned right to come home and Ill be damned if I didnt look up and see him on my ass AGAIN. I just dont get it..I didnt do ANYTHING...There's a sharp hairpin turn on that road and he got on the left side of the road and cut me off..this time I had to turn the car to the right OFF the road to keep from slamming into him. I sat there.....upset and quite honestly a bit scared cuz I could have slammed into a heavy duty guard rail and creamed our car. Bout that time..he made his way back and (my windows were down) he screamed..."Pussy!"...I screamed back..GIVE ME TWO WEEKS ASSHOLE! " and he spun rocks at me and took off. GOD...I can understand having power and wanting to RACE ..but I didnt EVEN give any indictation that I was stepping up to the challenge! Sheesh..cant wait to get both the T-Bird and the SHO up..and hunt his lil redneck ass DOWN!

Sounds like that jerk off is just jelius of a REAL performance car! His wanna be will never be what a TC or Sho already are!
JUst don't let temper make you do something you don't want to do.
A wreck will find him sooner or later!
