Default Got seriously picked on!!!

I was leasurily(sp?) driving home from a friends house. I was just cruising at 75-80 on the freeway, when I see a pack(6 or more) of modded cars coming up quickly behind me. I was exiting on to a junction for another freeway and I see all the cars quickly switch lanes to follow me, I'm thinking this might be bad. I'm not really into freeway racing, too dangerous, especially cuz it was still pretty early in the night (1230 or so) As we merge onto the next freeway a second gen M3 pulls up next to me and revs, I don't speed up, and he sticks with me. A twin turbo 300Z pulls behind me and is tailgating and a GSR pulls to my passenger side, I am now boxed in by a crew of racers(all cars are HEAVILY modded) I just want to get out of there so I drop to 3rd and punch it, of course everyone follows suit including (all coming from a couple of car lengths back) a hatch civic, a turbo supra and another GSR. The M3 was the fastest, he pulled a whole car length right on the jump, the 300Z pulled up next to me and started pulling as we shifted to 4th. I got past the GSR on my side with ease and found some room to get out of their way. I hit about 110 just trying to get out, I didn't want any part of a massive freeway race on a San Francisco freeway on a Saturday night. I am bone stock and couldn't have hung with the M3, 300Z and Supra if I tried. All cars were heavily modded, but I've never seen a 2nd gen M3 that fast before.
