Default Is this even a race?

So, I went to another dealership to pick up parts for my dealer... I'm on my way back, and I pass this jeep liberty. Apparently he took offense to that. Im cruising in the right lane and I notice him comin up fast in my mirror...

I think to myself, "Damn he must be havin a baby or something".

anyway, I pull up to the next light, and hes to my right. He revvs, so i look over to see if he has a grin like he wants me to take off or something. but no, he looks serious, like my car is slow or something. I noticed someone else in the car, probably his GF or something.

I also notice, in my rearview, a 525i with the top down, the guy is laughing hysterically.

Anyway, back to the jeep, before it turns green, the jeep takes off. I chuckle and wait for the green light. Hes about 6 cars ahead of me, I mash it and im already blowing past him when im half way through 2nd gear (lol).

I stop at about 75 and wait to see if he flybys me again, lo and behold, he goes into the left lane and tries to pass me, by this time im doing 65. I noticed the girl giving me a wierd *** look, so i just put it into 3rd and pull hard.

Next light, he revvs again... and i just laugh. I notice the bmw is behind me again. and hes pointing at the jeep laughing. then looks at me and gives the spinem motion.

So i just cover the jeep in smoke.

oh well, sorry i had to post it, i was laughing the whole time.
