Default Whippled L99 vs Challenger

Well, as most stories start: There I was minding my own buisness, driving home from New Orleans with the cruise control set on 60mph going through a construction zone. I was approaching the "twin span" (I-10 bridge crossing Lake Pontchartrain) in the middle lane, when an Impala and a maroon Challenger SRT8 blew past me, one on each side. I shook my head and watched them go. The Challenger was toying with the Impala. As I entered the bridge past the construction in the middle lane of 3 lanes of new roadway, I bumped the cruise up to 70 mph. The Challenger and Impala were in the left two lanes still playing. They slowed down, and as I came up on the Challenger, I moved over to the left lane (not touching the cruise), he punched it when my front bumper got even with his rear. So, I moved back into the middle lane. He slowed again, and I moved left to pass, cruise set.... and he punched it again, I laughed and move back into the middle lane. He slows again, 3rd time, I turned the cruise off, looked to find no traffic on the bridge ahead of us, and eased into the left lane with the same result, he punches it and I call , I rolled into the throttle and jumped up next to him, I leveled out next to him at 135, looked over, smiled and rolled back into the throttle, at 155 I looked up and was about 10 car lengths ahead of him and let off. I eased over to the far right lane (no Impala) and set the cruise at 70.

With his a$$ well spanked, he eases past me in the far left lane and doesn't look over at me. But........when he's ahead of me the back of the Challenger lights up with red, blue and white strobes, I laughed, heck anyone can go to AAC and buy lights!

About a week later, while coming home from New Orleans after an Arena football game on I-10, 10pm, we approach an accident, red, blue and white strobes everywhere, and lo and behold, his lights just a strobe'n was the maroon Challenger SRT8. (flash back)DAMN! 150+ in a 60 mph zone, racing a cop!....He started it your honor!!!!!!!!!! LOL

Life experience required here I see sujo: the cop was playing with his no doubt new cop car (99% chance the Impala was also a undercover car) and was out enjoying it when he raced OP. After getting stomped by OP he hit the lights momentarily while infront of him to let him know he was a cop- same thing I would have done if I was the cop, a way to let the other guy know that some cops are car guys too, and can be cool about it.

I've had something like that happen before. Going up a hill that was 4 lane and went back to 2 lane after it crested. I was in my truck and this tahoe was trying to get past me to the top. we both had it floored and I edged him out at the top. my turn was soon after and when I looked in the mirror, it was a sheriff's tahoe. he just kept driving.
