Silly M35 ..
Had a litte race on the way home from work today.
I was approaching a 2 lane on-ramp to get onto the 5 freeway and I notice there was a bus coming up on my left in the car pool lane. There are traffic signals turned on which would allow 2 cars at a time. Being in the right lane, my signal turns green and I get going behind the bus.
There were 2 kids in an M35 behind the bus trying to squeeze in and sure enough they pull in front of me. I honk at him and I knew he was itching to get over judging by the friendly hand gesture he gave me and how closely he was following the bus with his signal on.
I drop to 2nd @ 40mph and we both floor it at the same time. I left him pretty good, 3.5 - 4 car lengths @ 90mph I'd say.
My car hasn't been washed for a couple weeks and it just started making this obnoxious hissing / scraping sound from my rear rotor grinding on the dust shield. My car may appear & sound old, but it still moves

Was the hand gesture really friendly?

LOL, sorry if I am wrong since I cannot imagine how the traffic was but weren't you supposed to yield anyway? Secondly, I know the M35 is pork comparing to the G35 but how did you know he went WOT and you dusted him 3-4 car lengths?

As soon as he saw me throw on my signal and take the lane next to him, I heard his car go WOT (I always drive with my windows down) and I passed him without much of an issue.. I started in 2nd @ 40 - 45mph with VSA off.
I've edged cars that trap 98 - 99mph with less mods than I have now ... I don't think it sounds too farfetched considering his car does 95mph on a good day with no passengers?
