If he was already slowing down because he beat you and then you pass him it is not a win.

"Dissecting traffic" works just fine until one of the drivers does something you dont expect or doesnt see you and merges into your lane when you are going 20+mph more than him/her. Your the type of person that entertains me when I come across them in my ****ty blazer or my ram 2500, because if you do hit me, I win. I had someone think they could take a right turn on red when I had the green arrow tonight. Turbo diesels are not slow and he got a pretty close up view of my fog lights in his door window at eye level.

I wouldn't consider a race to be a race until you had to dodge through traffic....that's pretty much how we race around here!!! So much of a rush not knowing what's going to happen next....that's always why my cars are fully insured!

I prefer to race where everyone that is in danger willingly puts themselves there. Instead of putting a bunch of inocent drivers in danger because I think Im a badass and nothing bad can happen.

Wooo wooo, I didn't mean to start an arguement here. Few things. First I know for a fact that the srt-4 was still trying to race me, you can tell these sorts of thing, lol. Second, yes, I agree, it isn't the smartest thing in the world to be doing, and yes, a car could have jetted out and hit me. Unfortunately, a couple of things happen. Whenever you are out like that, and get "challenged to a race", you don't think to yourself, I wonder if I am going to hit someone, and you really should. You either worry about the race, cops, or you are blinded by adrenaline. Also, there wouldn't be such a big racing problem if there were more "controlled" enviorments for people to race on. I know I would love to have a drag strip of some sort near me to race on,but there isn't for a distance, and I know it is hard to get one too, so you work with what you got. Now, the real question is, would I have done it again, I really can't say. Depends on the mood I am in i guess. So, yes it isn't the smartest thing to do, but what the hell, we are guys and we only are so smart ya know.
