The Official Rambling Thread
Whats up guys. Went through London yesterday and got to spend a day out there. My first time anywhere outside of the country, pretty cool experience. Did the city tour stuff during the day and hit up the pubs that night. Beer rocks out there! I was buzzing after two beers.....
Cars were pretty interesting, first time seeing renault and citroens and stuff in person, and being on the wrong side of the road, I really wanted to rent something just to try out the driving but didnt have enough time for anything like that.
Definitely missing Hawaii weather right about now......later

So sorry to any other Yellow S2000 owners, you may one day for no reason find your car destroyed in the place you last left it. Story goes.......
I was on H1 about 1.5 miles from Nehoa Street Exit and out of no where some guys in a Lexus SUV start tailgating me, I was speeding and passing every car I could to be honest and waiting for a spot so I could start getting over as my normal exit is Punahou. Well the guy is getting really agressive AND really close, so I literally lock up the brakes with as little warning as possible ( I have insurance, and I don't care if the car burns to the ground) Well he doesn't hit me somehow but he almost obliterated the car next to him. So by now he is pissed because his tailgating almost got him killed and now he is trying to run up along side me and start yelling or shoot me who knows what... So as we are about to pass by Nehoa exit I wait until it would be impossible for him to make the exit and slam on the brakes again, cross all lanes of traffic and exit at Nehoa St. By now I am thinking I'm in the clear, I turn left onto ward to continue a back way home. I stop at the next light. TO MY AMAZEMENT THIS FOOL BACKED UP ON THE INTERSTATE AND TOOK NEHOA STREET EXIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He pulls up on the shoulder and then literally blocks me into the stoplight and starts screaming unintelligibles at me. at this point, getting out safe becomes my only concern and I run the light and make a left onto the street that is right along the interstate headed Ewa bound. I probably reached 80MPH and the guy was relentlessly behind me, I almost turned up a dead end street, but managed to see the sign and corrected.. I guess at that point he though I was gonna try to make a run for Punchbowl so he turned up a side street to head me off. The direction I was going only went one way, so that's what I figured he was thinking... I qot stuck behind a bus (thank god he didn't stay behind me) so I quickly U-turned and never saw him again.

Never drive toward home. don't reveal your home location
if possible, dial 911 and yell into the phone "someone is trying to kill me!" and throw it onto the seat. that way if you take some aggressive action and he ends up hurt, you have some sort of proof that you felt threatened.
familiarize yourself with county/state/mil/le facilities and gathering points. pull into an emergency room, fire station, police station/substation. ram a police car. go anywhere that you may find some kind of support. blow by an area known to have cops and speed traps.
and in this particular case, i assume the other guy wanted to fist fight or something person-to-person, otherwise he would have just rammed collen and ran him off the road. when he gets out of his vehicle, run him the **** over.
