Run in with the C63

I thought I'd share what happened tonight with my E55 racing the C63 tonight. I was driving home towards NY on route 80 and I was cruising at about 90mph. As I'm cruising I see a white C class but paid no mind knowing 99% of them are usually C300's but when I got close enough I saw the AMG bagde. I quickly hit the brakes and ended up side by side and he looked at me I looked at him with some good space between us and the next car on the highway. I wanted to honk it down but the C63 punched the gas right away and I punched it quickly right after and I would say we started at 60mph and basically what happened is he got the jump due to hitting the gas first BUT I started creepn slowly until I had a car in front of me that made me stop. 2nd run again side by side and again before I can honk it he punched it and I hit right after and same result only he had to let off because of a car jumping in front of him. We gave each other thumbs up and he got off in one of the exits, all that open highway and we couldnt get a good clean run to say which car beat which but still was plentyyy of fun.

I don't seem to run in to much of anyone that wants to play out there. Always brings a smile to my face when it happens though.
