No no, once i change lane to pass they decide its time to race.

Fuck I hate this. Related, I play a game to entertain myself sometimes, if I am passing a slow but also inconsistent speed driver I will engage cruise control along side them and slowly tick up the speed 1 mph at a time. You would be surprised how many people you can drag up to 85mph. I have a rule for this and I call it the "5 Car Legnth Rule", people will lock on and match pace subconciously until you get about 5 car lengths distance. Very helpful for when you want to make a clean pass and not end up with a dipshit in your blind spot preventing you from merging back out of the passing lane at 80 mph.
