Default cobra goes down gracefully

Was on the way home tonight after work.Cruising with traffic when this 99~01 cobra vert comes screaming up beside me..I look over its a middle aged dude with a big smile on his face..I had the windows down and could hear his blower .He motioned on down the road.We hit 4 lanes of nice clear free space.He jumped a few cars because i still had not shift down yet(he had).I Caught him and passed him like he slammed it in reverse.I slowed up to talk but he had got his feelings hurt bad.He wouldnt look in my direction at all but i did get a thumbs up(still without him turning and looking over).
