Default Lightning with no thunder...

I dropped someone off at LAX airport, and had to get back home quickly, so was toting along at 85-90 in mild traffic. A black lightning with yellow stripes (the opposite of my color scheme) is catching up with me. I get next to him, and hammer it in 3rd when he tries to step on it and take off. I left him in the dust...like, 7, 8, maybe 10 car lengths back by the time I let off at ~140. I cruised back down to a sane speed, and he just blew by me ricer style. It was a typical cholo, with some obscure stickers on the windows.

They car sounded stock down to the exhaust tips, for the record. I could only hear the blower when he was right next to me.

Sounds right--I leave my buddy in his from any roll, and from a dig, its not even funny--for him. He can't hook. Now in a few weeks, it may be a diff story--running 16lbs of boost, tuned, some other crap too.
