Default V6 Flyby

I was going down the 4 lane highway at about 60, going a little slow because last time I was stopped here I was going 8 over and I got handcuffed, then this sn-95 v6 came flying by me I when he was about 1 car ahead I decide to put him in his place so I gun it and chased him down in probably no more than 3 seconds but I would guess less than that and it looked like he was standing still. A few minutes later we stop at a stoplight in town and he starts talking like "oh, you have a v8 thats not fair" I usually drive a 4 banger and if I lose (which I almost always do) I never say anythings not fair, if you start it anything goes

Low 15's I've seen a couple low 14's but both were really good drivers with really good conditions

I did a "fly by" by accident the other day on a Z28. My shop had called and told me to hurry up, still a30 minutes away,as they were going to close early and wanted to get my weakening clutch replaced in one day. So I did what anyone else would do and started hauling a ss. I passed this z28 that had passed me 6-7 miles prior and he thought it was an invitation to race. He did his fly by and proceeded topass 2-3 tractor trailers on the shoulder at about 130-140 mph

About 10 miles down the road, we pass a weigh station and I see the Chippies sitting out front with their binoculars. They pulled out and end up stopping him. Sucks to be him. Sholdn't be drive like that.


Be careful when we're screwing around on the freeways. Passing on the shoulder is very stupid.

I guess this doesn't relate to the thread, but the Fly By reminded me.
