I got to admit I don't normally get roped into light racing but the odd occasion I do....stupid but we've all done it
....Very true! I avoid the chavvy types or those whose driving seems dangerous but matching someone's speed (at a safe braking distance) and making progress in a convoy of two, where you always allow each other space for tucking back in etc can be extremely satisfying. It's a kind of friendly play and you allow each other to overtake and swop places - It's not actually a race but just a shared spirited drive. I had a TT tempt me into a play recently and I responded but I immediately dropped out when I realised it was a girlie driving because I didn't want her to think I was hassling her just because she was female. What worries me about having what I think is a responsible play is that Police could view it as racing and I could get a ban.
A few years ago when I first had my GTI, I was overtaken by a very pretty brunette woman driving a black M3 who was pressing on - She had a sticker in her back window which read "Does My Arse Look Too Fat In This?" 
Brilliant! The thing with me is I don't really back out, once im committed I feel like I can't back out
then it goes to the point where you know you should stop,Someone can get hurt,wreck the car.....then the moment you have a fright like back end steps, see a police car etc and you think to yourself..."if something happened and someone dies or gets very badly injured there is absolutely no way I can explain why I was doing it, just being pure stupid I could take ones life......
That type of thinking works for me now thank God and I rarely do it, I still have a play with the big boys tho on the odd "private" road.don't spend all this money for nothing
Im pretty tame now tho and half the time im too busy listening to my ITG to even care
