Default traffic saved this charger

just a little while ago im coming home from work and decide to get gas. as im about to pull into my preferred station a charger in the left lane guns it. i got the hint. im thinking ok **** lets go.

the next light im behind the charger with it being the front car. he takes off hard. so it had a few car lengths before i could get into it. as soon as i can i romp it and get over into the right lane. i catch up easily and as im about to embarrass him theres some POS minivan in front of me. i hit my brakes. my ABS kicked in but i stopped in plenty of time. scared the **** out of me though.

the charger driver continues driving aggressively through traffic and i wanted to chase it and put an exclamation point on things but i didnt want to run out of gas.

i dont know if it was an RT or SRT but i know it didnt have nearly enough. nice looking car. black with black rims and tint.exhaust was loud also. i thought at first it might be a cop but ive never had one try to race me.

Kinda what I was thinking. Maybe I am just getting too damn old, but if I were in the minivan, I would have been pissed off!

Not me..If I am in my DD POS and I see a race brewing, I'll clear the way and slow down just to watch. Love that sh*t

i wasnt racing through anything. no one was even close to being hurt.

i doubt the driver in front of me even noticed. im quite capable of judging distance and when to back off. there was a small clearance between vehicles so i gave it a blast.

Guarantee you every single person involved in a street racing accident has at one point or another said this exact statement.

i dont know about everyone else but ill tell you i slowed down way before i came close to hitting that minivan. i never lost control.

ive done stupid **** racing. i lost traction bad one night and ended up on the other side of the road and steered it into a gas station across the street. that scared the **** out of me. fortunately no one was coming the other way and the gas station was closed.

now that was stupid.

There's a difference between racing on a empty public highway at night vs. racing in traffic around other cars.

I've actually lost a race because I ran out of gas before! at least that didn't happen to you.. sucked because it should have been a puppy kicking but I know some 2010 TL is running around thinking he is the V slayer..
