At lunch, I went for a ride on the freeway. I was doing 75 mph, some 94-99 (can't tell) red Celica was tailing me. I was like, "What? 130HP? Trying to race me? Even Grandma driving an S would smoke you!" I dropped to 3rd, then to 4th and 5th, going XXX mph, and the Celica was like 10-12 car lengths behind.

Then I slowed down back to 80 mph or so. The Celica caught up and was at my tail again. This time, there was a SLK230 on the left lane. I did the exact same thing again, Celica was 10-12 car lenghts behind. SLK didn't even try, it was way back. Then I slowed down, Celica caught up and I did the same thing again. Then it was my exit and I slowed down. The Celica flew by me going like 100+ mph. It could see that it had rims and an exhaust. Wow!!!!!


I understand that people would wanna run with some quicker, faster cars. Like if I see a 911TT, F360, Z8 etc..... I would try to get them to race and see how quick they are. As soon as they smoke me, I would give it up. I don't understand why this guy would kept on doing it over and over. Maybe I should not have reacted for the 2nd and 3rd time.

Did you ever consider that he was just trying to get past you because he wanted to drive faster than you were??

The left lane (Fast lane) was open when he was behind me (kind of close for no reason), I was in the middle. I waited for a bit like 10-15 seconds before I floored it. If he was trying to go faster, he could have got to the left lane and passed me right away. There was not much traffic. Then he did it again and again. I think he wanted to "test" the S2000.

 

oh, a older model, that makes that celica guy more crazy

 

Maybe his other car was a Porsche/S2000, and he forgot he was driving his beater. He was like " Damn! This S2000 must be boosted!"

Don't laugh, I know someone who did that before. Driving beater (Auto), thought he was in his fast, nice car (Auto) and raced with someone for a bit.

If you are on the left lane (fast lane), yeah, I would always "get the fu*K out of the way"

If you read my post carefully, I was NOT on the fast lane.............. and the fast lane was open.

Are you the Red Celica driver?

 

Ok, my bad. Oh, I am not the red celica driver.
