The Boxster driver was probably in a hurry and you decided to waste his time. If he really wanted to his S would beat your S no problem.
Just to let you know, some people are not interested in racing on public roads. There is nothing worst than seeing one car speeding because they were in a hurry and another car suddenly takes off after them to provoke a race.
Luckily the folks around me don't do that but you'll always get a teenage jerk with his windows down saying your car sucks or you suck because you're not racing or whatever.

I think the only way that guy's S would have beaten my S would be if he shot out my rear tires, and checked me into the guard rail.
You trolls are like two peas in a pod.

Kill is a kill but for this encounter all he wanted to do is get around you. He didn't come by you and start revving. There are people that is in a hurry.
I say this because this happens to me a lot when i drive my car. Just because i'm on the left lane and try to pass people they think i want to race them. They automatically start revving and accelarating. For the most part i just ignore them and let them be since i know i have more WHP than they do Crank HP. Even when i'm at a stop to turn left they slow down and rev at me even when their traffic light is green. But if they cut me off like you did here i'll probably take the challenge if the traffic is clear. I'm sure you'd be mad too if you were cutoff like he was. In this race a Supercharged S2k will beat any boxter anyday. If both cars were stock it would be a different story given equal drivers.

he cut an entire bridge of traffic off, not to mention the people in front of him who were trying to merge when it was their turn. Don't come at me like I cut this guy off, HA!

[QUOTE]he cut an entire bridge of traffic off, not to mention the people in front of him who were trying to merge when it was their turn.
Let's start with step 1 of your post
[QUOTE]So I was heading to work this morning from Milford. I'm on the 95 connector headed towards the Merrit Parkway. I see this dark blue Porche coming up quick behind me. He gets over in the slow lane and punches it but reels back when he realizes that there is traffic. The trunklid reads "Boxter S" in black letters.
Seems to me even you admit he pulls back because of traffic and I don't recall seeing on your post that he cut off an entire traffic. Since he was never in front of you how did you know he had a "Boxter S" in black letters?
sped up a little to give him room to go around....or at least try . I'm always fair when I know someone wants to try to speed past like a tough guy. So as soon as there was a boxter S sized space between me and the car in the slow lane to my right, he was in it, and on it. As soon as he started making forward progress towards me I dropped down from third to second and stood on it!
and here? If every car he passed acted like you did how would this have turned out?
What if that was you in a hurry and someone faster than you kept cutting you off.
Sorry but the way I see this is you saw a Boxter and wanted to play with it.
Eihter way a Kill is a Kill. Stock Vs Stock given equal drivers Boxter S wins.

Sure enough, when there was an opening in the fast lane he threw his porche into the fast lane. I pushed the clutch in, reved up slightly and leaned into it! I jumped about a full car length ahead, signaled and got in front of him.
Who is cutting off who here?

Its hard for you to understand the story when your too busy picking it apart and being a troll. He tried to cut into a line of traffic prior to getting onto the merrit. When realizing that his asshole attempt was impossible because there was no room, he decided to be a normal driver and dip behind me. I wasnt about to make room for him, knowing what he was doing.
Also, him trying to jump over the solid line when merging is dangerous and just down right stupid. This could have endangered me, my car, and the cars in front of me. I've had people do this, causing the people ahead of me who are merging at the right time, have to shoot back over into my lane, causing me to have to go into the shoulder. You KNOW this is wrong, yet you still think I'm in the wrong here. Also, I said I got AHEAD of him, SIGNALED, and got infront of him. I didnt say I allowed just enough room before I cut in front of him, causing him to slam on his breaks.
No other car could have acted like I did, he obviously wasnt in a hurry, but rather just an asshole driver. As I stated before, I've been in a hurry many times, but I dont go weaving through traffic like an ass. I make up time during open roads, instead of "office spacing" it in traffic. Also, I dont "play" with boxsters, I see it as a waste of gas and time, unless you inconvenience me that early in the morning.
There is no use in arguing a stock vs. stock kill because I am NOT stock by any means. I just wanted to point out to the person he was driving like an idiot, and he is not king of the road in his little suit and matching porche.
I hope you are done trolling now. Thanks for playing.
