Took on and took out a Mazda RX-8. Got a big thumbs up out the window when we slowed.

Gotta find a way to video these, there is not enough time when it happens.

Yeah... rx-8's aren't shit... they're slow from a roll and slower from a dig... you should have had no problem with it unless there was some mods on it, then it might have been a tiny bit closer.

I had a blonde hottie behind me on my way to work that actually stayed behind me in her RX8. I did one pull and blew my caps of the vac tree. She pulled next to me at the light. I was just embaressed how my car idled like I blew it up. haha

I was behind him, changed lanes and passed him pretty easily. You are right.
