Merging onto 97N from Craine Hwy here in MD I was behind some guy in a late model GM 3/4 ton with rims and exhaust. While we were waiting to merge he kept revving so I figured it was go time.
Mind you I have me (220lbs), Marcus (roommate and a solid 225lbs) and Mike (good buddy, cop and 145lbs soaking wet) in the car with me. Well whatever I'm gonna have this kid, no one ever wants to run me so I'll have some play time.
He goes to merge and is driving a stick, gets wheels at the 1-2 shift i suppose to show me what he's got, heck I could do that in my sister's '92 tercel. I hit it to keep up, I can't pass it's a one lane so i'm just behind him listening to his exhaust screaming. I've got 2/3 throttle and i'm just cruising along. Finally we hit the highway and I expect him to geese it, turns out he already was. I passed him and let up. He comes back for more, 3/4 throttle and pass him again. This time I slow down to get next to him and he takes off once more. Again I hit the throttle but don't go WOT because traffic is kinda heavy and I really don't want a ticket or someone's death on my hands, so I lead him up to about 80 and lay off the throttle coasting back down to 75. He does the flyby up the off ramp I shake my head, my roommate tells me I should have kept it up so he'd have lost it on the ramp and my cop buddy tells me if we had kept it up to 695 he'd have written me a ticket. Not a "good job chuck" one...ungrateful friends of mine lol.
