Intentionallly Losing?

Have you ever done that? I don't mean turning down an invitation, but race someone and not giving it 100% because you know you will win.
I don't believe I have intentionally lose, but I have driven slowly around certain cars because I didn't want to make them depressed. For example, I like the new zoom zoom Mazda hatchback and actually slowed down so they can pass me :-) May be I lack the killer instinct, or the finishing touch.

that's not a nice thing to do, cause now you just built up their ego, and goes up against another maxima and get smoked
Now they feel 2x worse.

The speed I race someone is directly proportional to how good looking she is...

Sorry guys, for you it's WOT!

hahaha.... that happened to me this morning. I was on a two lane road in the right lane and this Chevy pickup was in the left lane. Left lane was about to end so the guy floors it. I thought about dropping it, but instead just kept off the gas.... the guy blows by me...
