Sorry if this is off topic, but i dont know where else to put it.
Some of you may know me, some may not. Last year and the year before i was driving a gray 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. I recently bought a black 97 M3.
Its sad to say that you guys wont likely be seeing me around much anymore (too bad we dont have a Goodbye Mat thread) because I cant stand what the automotive community has become.
Tonight I was en route to meet up with Rich at the park by the Radisson. Coming down So Willow, a group of 3 hondas/acuras cut me off coming out of the (you guessed it) Dunkin Donuts parking lot. I did what most of us would do, got pissed. They were cruising down south willow in both lanes at 25mph, revving engines, quick drags, then slowing back down to 25mph. I moved over to pass when I had the chance, and the lowered early 90's accord/integra painted with primer cut me off to keep me out of the lane, so I moved back over and sped up to keep him out of the lane. he and his buddies ( i think there were 3 of them in the car) were yelling at me but i couldnt understand them. I yelled "stop being a f***ing a**hole".
Next thing I know, the nose of his car is in front of mine and i'm hard on the brakes. he stops. theres a truck behind me, and nowhere to go.
his buddy gets out and starts kicking my hood in. he gets out. I get out (bad move). i start to back off (with an assault charge on my record from 2 years ago, i couldnt fight back at the risk of going back to jail and my 2 years good behavior is only 3 weeks from over).
the guys buddy (maybe 200-210lbs vs. my 145lbs) gets a few hits on my face, jaw, and side of my head. meanwhile, the driver is smashing out my rear window, and stealing my keys (the only set i have). driver yells to buddy to get in the car, they split. 10-15 onlookers drive off without taking a plate, calling the cops, or stepping in to help me out. no witnesses stayed.
i understand that i may have provoked some of the situation, but i think the reaction was unbelievable.
also, i dont want to cause issues here on the site or with anyone who might know this guy, or post personal issues in this particular thread, i just thought this might get some attention, and the police want to find the guy, and i want to press charges. so if any of you have information regarding a car with the following description, please PM me.
90's Honda Accord or Acura Integra (i think)
-all primer, no paint
-lowered, drags its rear end under acceleration, sparks from under the car
-dont think it had a wing
-exhaust (the ricey kind)
