Figured this was worth the post. Father in law is in town and figured I would take him for a little cruise tonight. Really did not plan on playing around just a harmless cruise. Well on the way back on a secluded 4 lane road a 4th gen z28 and an R6 pull out about 1/8 mile ahead of me and then the camaro slows down to get into the right lane like he was waiting for me to catch up. I was doing 60 in a 55 so I bump it up to 65 he seems to bump it up and mind you he is like 15 car lengths in front of me I have yet to get close to him. I then bump it up to 70 still he goes a little faster as well preventing me from catching up to him but I hear a downshift and the exhaust gets louder but yet he is atleast 15 cars on me. So with about 1 mile till the red light which also dead ends that road I decided to downshift into 4th and hammer down at this time the R6 wants to play as well and with a 15 car head start on me for the Z I beat both him and the R6 (the R6 was maybe a car behind me) by a good 1/4 of that mile before hitting the brakes hard to make the light. I am not too sure on how hard the R6 was playing due to I was really focused on the Z for the simple fact he wanted to race but would not let me catch up.


What is with these guys wanting to race but don't let you catch up? I just don't get it. But my father in law looked like he was going to **** his pants then wants we started to slow down to a reasonable speed he started laughing so I was pretty happy to atleast get to show him the cars potential and have an excuse to as well. Thanks for letting me share.

Niiiice!

This same type of thing happened to me with this metro-sexual in a 350Z. He didnt wave at the next light after I passed him at 130, I punched it at about 70 and he was a good 3 bus links in front of me. But he prolly didnt like me wavin at him as I passed though either
