Yeah what is it with them? No matter what speed I'm doing on the highway they HAVE TO pass me at w.o.t. and then when they are about 7 car lengths ahead they return back to the cruising speed that I'm doing???.....too funny.

When I had the stock motor, EVERYBODY wanted a piece of me of course little did they know I was still doing 12.80s. Now they hear the cam/exhaust and everyone behaves.
