I went ahead & filed a report with the local PD. I'll hear from them in 3-5 days.
Charlie, I understand about the track thing. I've done autocross this summer, in fact just did one in Atlanta Sunday. And yes, since the very first one, it has changed the manner in which I drive on the roads, much more conservative, and others aggresions just meerely roll off my back.
I was maybe a mile or two from the house when she originally passed me. It was 30 or so deg out this morning, so my car wasn't even warmed up, so I wasn't racing it or her. I wasn't trying to "compete" in anyway. When she originally passed me, she got really close and flew by with great speed. I think it pissed her off to have me catch her when she got stuck at a few lights later down the road. What she did was intentional. When we were turning right, she was moving very slowly....and once on the 4 lane, she wouldn't accelerate. I was in the right lane, she was in the left. I had a feeling something funny was about to happen. Remember she had been driving much faster than me, so I assumed she'd take off again. But she wasn't accerlating and I was waiting before I tried to pass her on the right. When it was obvious she wasn't going to go (we were doing like 20 mph) I started to come pass her. This was a stand off. I'm not exaggerating. She literally cut me off, and then slammed on her brakes, then took off once I stopped. When she realized I was going to catch she started making right hand turns and we finally wound up at another red light next to a church parking lot where I got out and motioned for her to join me in waiting for the PD.
