Cruising up I81 at about 90mph, i passed a gold ram-air trans-am. He sped up a little, so I slowed a little until his front bumper was about at my rear bumper....then we both went for it.... NO TRAFFIC (passed 3 cars)... we ended at 155mph with him about 3-4 car legnths in the lead.

what a great morning. I think the top speed of those trans-ams is about the same as the S2000 for some reason (aerodynamics??).

my favorite is the bikes... ran with one this morning. perfect location- long strip next to the airport, no one else on the road. at the end he pulled up to me and said he was surprised that i kept so close... i told him "its a honda, what did you expect!". i kept about a cars length behind most of the way (he was two lanes over) until i think leaving 4th- he pulled out then, and time to back off anyway...
