I think many of us E55 runners have a complex about the CLS and you came a ccross trying to prove he was "faster". Glad you didn't mention any attempts at your end of engaging him (or her). Letting the fool go is usually best.

So he passed you, what do you care ? Does it affect you somehow ? Have you been traumatized ?

Maybe the E55 fellow passed without care? Either way, I've seen it done before and have done it myself once or twice but quickly schnabbed by a cop so those days have long been over. No reckless driving for me.

Is it true, with a reckless driving infraction on your license, you can not get personalized plates in Jersey?

Wasn't there an E55 guy in that area always challenging us to fights?

Conversations always seemed to vere a bit off course.

Us: No offense, but I just don't think that is possible (race talk etc)

Him: Just you and me....man to man, noone around, last man standing is the victor. If I have to do some time for crime, so be it.

Us: Ehhhhh, I though we were just talking about a C230

Him: I take boxing lessons.
