Default Didn't know I was racing :)

Coming home last night I pulled up next to a debadged G37 Coupe with blacked out windows and custom black rims, but no exhaust. I didn't think anything about it and didn't hear any revs or anything over my own exhaust. When the light turned I took off in a fairly spirited manner just to have fun. I realized that the G was at my back quarter panel and was going for all he was worth. At this point in 2nd I pretty well dropped the hammer and walked him hard to about 70. With a car turning left in my lane he did a classic flyby and recklessly wove through traffic to make some sort of point. Yeah, I know, not much of a race, but things have been really slow lately.

I get those all the time and my car doesn't look like anything special. Usually it's some douche in a diesel truck. I now assume I'm racing every car next to me at a light. Beat a minivan this afternoon by 30 or 40 car lengths, it was hard to tell.
