Default epic charger fly-by
i was at a light and there was one of those regular charger things next to me who takes off, so i figure what the hell. catch up to him, pass him, leave him way behind, i stop when i hit 90 because he is so far behind. i let off the gas and let my car coast down to 60mph and about 30 seconds later, the charger drives past with his hazards on. wtf? i laughed and went home.

basically you did the ricer flyby first, then he got you with one. Not every car on the road wants to honk off a 20 roll every time you pull up to them.
