i have super duper bright turn signals.. anyway i was on the highway saw a car coming up fast, signaled and switched to middle lane, he high beams me and pass's me. i follow him, 5th gear im going 90-100 at 4-5k rpm, this guy in a black chevy (think it was use for a tow truck) going 110 and not slowing down...i tried to pass but then he pulled on me and there were cars in my lane, i said screw this and went on my exit... erf

those old chevy trucks have this big as$ engine with a lot of torque so they can maybe pull a lot harder from a roll...or maybe he supercharged it, its easy on those big engines...could be a lot of possible reasons...if you downshifted to 4th maybe you could have stayed with him
