Ferrari VS my old 500SE playing in the the freeway

I was heading North bound on hwy 680 in Fremont Ca, when i see a silver Ferrari, a 360 with oregon plates. So i get right behind it and bragging to my GF how nice it is and shes half asleep. We are doing about 80 mph then soon 90 as he realizes i'm on his butt then slowly to 100 and then he guns it and moves to the right and i gun it and move to the right along with it ! it wasent gaining on me as fast as i would have thought, perhaps just a few feet -not much at all i was kinda shock--anyways we were doing about 125 mph on the hwy then he let go i went right by him waiving him and giving him thumbs up for a great car, but he just ignored me lol he seem frighten.

Always fun to "play" with Ferraries , but unless you car is heavily modded you would NOT stay within a trainlenghts of him if he decided to loose you..... but you must know that right

He wasn't frightened. People that drive cars like that always have people toying with them. That's why he ignored you...

But about the driver, he looked frightened trust me ! both hands on the wheel, holding the wheel very strong --he wasent relax or anything---even when i race in thet rack- i dont know of anyone holding the wheel that strong, and he didnt show any smile or anything--he had a frighten face lol he was asian i guess he's never seen 125-130ish before...some people buy these cars and dont speed but hey you cant blame them

Had that happen to me before. Except for the gunning part. A Porsche Carrera 996 was clearing the path at 120, "cruising". I decided to cover his back. While he played "live bait" for CHP's.

It's not good practice to do this, and any driver that weaves in and out of traffic deserves to have there license revoked indefinitely. But on a four lane highway, nary a car in sight, a light morning hour, a Porsche flies by, your masculine curiousity is naturally piqued.
