Encounter with an eclipse

Coming back from Baltimore this weekend, there was a guy driving an eclipse from the model before the one that JUST came out. he had a kit on it I had never seen before and not sure what if any performance mods he had besides exhaust. At around 80 mph, he finally got stuck behind a car from weaving in and out of traffic like a loonatic. I was behind him. I go into 3rd right before I knew he was gonna gun it and we gun around the same time. He actually got about a car lead from the get go and then by the time I shut it down, I Was doing around 125 with a 2 car lead.

He kept going, but I had something to prove to myself heh.

Would have loved to have taken him from the line though.

I believe it was. It was funny seeing him hit the gas, but could do nothing as I ran him down.
