How would you react?
Ok, I drive an '01 Tiburon, and I have been wanting to come across my first kill, but yet I do not like to step up to the line, w/out having the kick to back it up, and since I only have a CAI thus far, I have been hesitant. Well the other night, at around 3 or 3:30am, I am cruising at about 70mph down the freeway. I come pulling up to this interesting looking car. Looking at it more, I couldnt tell exactly what it was due to lack of lighting and our speed. It was a sweet looking ride: full body kit, gunmetal rims, sponsor stickers and decals, ground effects. So I decide to speed up just a little, to nudge ahead of him. He accelerates and starts speeding up at a higher rate. I smile, although I am almost positive I will lose, I slam the pedal. I ended up catching up, and at about 105/110mph i find myself almost a full car length, maybe a little less. I was wondering why he wouldnt pass me, so I let some pressure off the gas thinking he let me get ahead, but as I dropped to no less than 95mph, he slowly passed me, so I dropped back to 70mph and cruised.
Was this guy for real? I still dont know whether to claim a solid kill, or if he was holding back, or what. Part of me thinks he was all show, no go. The other part thinks he coulda waxed me, but I wasnt worth it. Let me know what you think.

Re: How would you react?
Impossible to tell, you were the one there and since you dont even know what the car was there's no way to even compare.

Re: How would you react?
yea, just assume the other guy was trying... the 01 tib isn't slow in the least (my girl has one) but it's not a rocker either, more than likely it was a civic... i see alot with emblems removed and tags taken off

Sorry for sounding new, but what does WOT stand for? And as far as what car it was, I myself am upset that I didnt catch it. I know it wasn't a Civic, (seen so many of those hard to not catch it.) I wanna say Nissan is the first thing that comes to mind, trying to think of what the car looked like exactly. I was more focused on my line of sight since I thought it was goin to be more of a challenge.

Ok, thanx Thourun. But I will browse around for the car, because I would recognize it if I saw it again.

I surfed around on the net and now I am sure it was an Acura Integra. Not sure if it was a Type R, it didnt have a hatchback, but deffinately and Integra.
