I hate to admit it but I have been in more then a few of those in LA traffic. If the cars are even close to equal in power, say within 50-100hp, then it really comes down to luck and driving skills. I have done that more times then I am proud of tho and my wife is afraid that she will get a call from hospital one day....I tend to only open up on very wide and clear freeways in my old age.

I have seen this one already, I think that was one of the guys here, he used to have an M5. It looks like that TT was running some race gas, just crazy power but very dangerous.
