I know, at 65,I should know better. Sure got home quicker than I normally do. I won't do it again.
Are you out of your senses or just fvcking stupid? My vote is both. Street racing in any form is one of the most idiotic endeavors known to man. Having lost friends who were innocent victims of people like you, I am disgusted.

Further, it is not only bad form to engage in this, but posting your exploits in sheer stupidity is against forum rules.

Reported.

First, wrong choice of words on my part. Just going fast, never side by side, just 5 car lengths behind each other but hit 120 on emply 4 lane highway that was very straight. Second, I apologize for posting and offending some of you. No one was in any danger. Third, even with all that, it was stupid. I was just going straight at about 90 when the truck and eclipse overtook me, followed them in straight line for a few miles, then followed the Eclipse, not attempting to overtake till traffic came into view, slowed down.

My sincere apologies for calling it racing. It was driving fast.

S'alright.

There are a lot of overreactions on this forum about driving fast next to another car.

I would pile on DA of the Week but that has been handled quite well.

Hopefully I can get my car in for a wash early tomorrow. Maybe shampoo the carpets.

I'll be installing Swifts and some slotted StopTech rotors this weekend. Really looking forward to it. Next weekend it's to the alignment shop!

So on my way home from work I stopped at my gf's house to let her drop off her baggage with my windows down. Started to drive through the neighborhood when I saw a spider and my face went then I made sounds that were very high pitched. My gf was a little concerned until she realized I was being a little pansy with a spider crawling on the inside of my windshield...

When out for drinks and "tapas" tonight with my Z she looked so sexy. Was even able to find a good parking spot in a corner in a full parking lot, with a considerate neighbor who left plenty of space between his car and my Z. In case you were wondering, i had camel hamburger sliders with my drinks.... Mmm mmm mmm good!

Indeed it was a good night for the Z and I
