Back in the days of my youth I had a `67 Chevelle Super Sport - a very fast 1/8 or 1/4 mile car. All kinds of mods to motor, rear gear ratio, carbs and intake, headers...
When someone want to race me, I would ignore them. Before and after the Chevelle, I was young and foolish and would race any time anywhere. In the Chevelle I knew what I had and could blow them away. I think that when you are confident in your car and yourself there is no temptation to prove anything.
When someone starts following too close in the Porsche I very gradually start to slow down. Eventually I am barely doing the speed limit and they get tired of going slow and pass. I got great joy one time when one yahoo blew past me and then just a little farther down the highway he was on the side of the road with an unmarked trooper having a chat with him. I so wanted to beep and wave.
