On my way into work I had some guy riding my *** part way down Lake Worth road and into the turning lane on the turnpike as well as the on ramp. I was driving normal, I don't haul *** everywhere or drive like a retard. So at the bottom of the on ramp I look over and there's no traffic coming and it's just me and the Vette. I keep it in 3rd he gets next to me and gives me this stupid look like why am I bothering he's in a "Vette". I floor it as does he and instantly pull 1/2 car on him. I pull a full car length on him and shift 4th pulling even further away and keep into it till I top out at 108 or so (top of 4th with 4.30 gears). At that point we were coming up on traffic real quick. I was about 2.5-3 cars ahead at that point and still pulling. He started to slow down but then decided he was going to cut someone off. He did and took off doing well over 100 MPH. This was a 00 or 01 C5 Vette with a prick driver.
