So I jumped on it, and the other Z gunned it, and we blew past the M3 from either side, exhaust screaming the same note (they have identical mods). Must've made that driver piss his suit pants.

Please note that the above description was done in a controlled environment and was not street racing of any kind.

This was all done while obeying the speed limit, right?

Be nice to that poster -- I think he is one of my sons. In fact, I am certain.

This is the same way I drive. I'm a magnet for the popo... Don't ask me why.

Driving slower than the speed limit will attract more attention than driving a little above. Looks suspicious
