Ran a GT-R tonight

Was taking my car for a cruise tonight in MEXICO, and a very nice silver GT-R came onto the freeway right in front of me. I was already going faster than he was, so I moved the left to allow him plenty of space to merge.

He followed behind me at quite a distance for a couple of miles, then he finally got up close, hit it, and zipped by me while I maintained my speed. I downshifted and caught up to him to as he was slowing down, and he gave me a polite smile and thumbs up, sort of like he thought we had just raced. I gave him a polite thumbs up back, downshifted to 3rd, and pointed ahead to see if he wanted to actually race for real this time.

He hit it immediately and got the jump, but by the time I was in the middle of 4th I was a couple bus lengths ahead of him. He turned off before I did, so I never got a chance to chat with him.

Jasper, his plates read "CWC GTR", or something similar. If you see anything on the GT-R board about it, please let me know.

Fun stuff.

I'm sure traffic patrol officers and overworked, underpaid detectives are all over this thread.

g/k. I bet his jaw hit the bottom of his steering wheel.

Hey wait a minute, does this mean a "Kill" section is going to start?!?

This thread is great and all, but let the record reflect that Scott used to race against Tricycles in his Go-kart as a kid, so we knew where this one was headed from the beginning Nice kill though, I bet he had no idea what he was in for!

Hey Scott,first of all congrats for the kill, the guy didn't know what was about to happen....
But you should carry a camera in the car.....it would be great to have some vids of your kills!!!

Just like the "Protomotive 996TT VS M6" vid......wow...

Lets stick a GoPro camera to the car!
