BMW R1150R (bike) goes down. 70-110
Guy in one of these (saw him in my rear view mirror)...
I slowed to 70 on a clear stretch of freeway, he came around to my right with a full head of steam. I dropped to 3rd and halted his progress, shifted into 4th and put a car on him. We shut down at 110.
It was fun!
Edit: Disclaimer- it wasn't a 3 honk and go, so maybe he let off when pulling next to me and then got back on it. I know I shouldn't have been able to pull on him like I did, or should I have? Either way, we exchanged thumbs ups.

I can't make it past tech anymore and broke a few too many parts last few times out, so I'm not going to the track anymore for a while.
