Played with a new Viper SRT10
I was driving around today going to return some stuff at Fry's. I took the cobra because it was real nice out. On the way I was about to merge onto the highway when I saw a brand new silver viper comming up from behind. He was in the far left line as if he was turning around. My light turned green so I gassed it and peeled out a bit to get his attention. He bit and changed lanes to follow me onto the highway. Unfortunatlely there was a ton of traffic, so we spent the next few minutes weaving around but there was just no space to safely go. He ended up in front as I got stuck behind a slow moving truck. He was weaving through traffic and I tried to follow, but I really don't like doing this with that many people on the road. He seamed to get pretty squirly a few times. Eventually I caught up and he punched it as a small clearing opened up across to the far right lane. I followed and stayed with him, but then we both had to brake because of traffic. It was hard to tell from the brief stint, but it seamed like I could have at least hung with him. He waved like he wanted me to follow him onto the next highway. I was going that way anyway so I followed. Same thing happened, traffic was heavy and I ended up weaving around cars to stay with him. Suddenly he cut over and exited. I said screw it and let him go. Anyway, it was fun but I wish we got a decent run it.
