07 SS SC vs. 07? Mazdaspeed 3

So last night my buddy and I were cruising down the interstate eggin this Blue RSX beside me to race and after a few tries I gave up on him and continued down the road cruising around 70. All of a sudden I see these bright ass blue beams in my rearview and this car comes flying up right on my bumper... Me being one not to walk away from a good run, I decided to floor it. It was about 11pm and there was still moderate traffic in the right two lanes so i stayed weaving in and out of the left two. At first i thought the car was a Scion xA and i was wondering how the hell he was keepin so close on my ass as i was pushing a buck 25 in 4th (we were in a 55 zone). I was taking some fairly scary turns at about 115-120 thinking i could lose this joker but he stayed right on me the whole damn time. We finally came to a long ass straight and i finally got a chance to open it up, we got up to a buck 40 or so and my buddy started yellin at me to slow up and get over because our exit was coming up so i slowed down to cruisin speed which was about 70 and fell back into the right lane beeping as the other guy flew past at still over a hundred. I felt pretty good because the guy was in the car by himself and i had a couple hundred extra pounds between my buddy in the passenger seat and the huge sub box and junk in the trunk. It wasnt two seconds later after i layed into the brakes and fell into traffice that i see these headlights in my rearview that were gaining realllllllly fast on me.... Needless to say I thought the worst. And i was right, except it wasnt the worst for me but the other guy who the cop was after as he passed me at well over a hundred and dipped in right behind the guy in the mazda as my heart was beatin a mile a minute. Needless to say the guy probably went to jail and his car probably got towed away....Close call, wont be doing again too soon. Scott in Norfolk

^^dude I gotta agree. I'm in Newport News and my friend next door is a state trooper and you already know how va state police are. 90% of the time if you get pulled over you're getting a ticket, but in this case yeah he went to jail. Especially if he had military decals on the car.

color

Mine is one of the rarer colors its sport red tintcoat. Im kind of new to this site so im still tryin to figure out how to post pictures to my gallery and join clubs etc. I dont know if i need to be a premium member or what?? Im sure one of you guys will fill me in though.

Sorry to hear about your cousin spectral. I had the same kind of experience when my buddy crashed his hopped up civic into an oncoming jeep and then another truck and rolled down an embankment into a creek when i was in high school. He was flying through some backroad when it was raining like a fool and he was in teh ICU for three weeks and is lucky to still be alive. But he is thick skulled and still does BS like that to this day so i guess some people never learned. When i was a Senior in high school i got an 03 eclipse gt and it didnt take me but three months to wipe out at a hundred and thirty mph on a little highway winding through the mountains back in my hometown. I walked away without a scratch i guess someone was lookin after me on that one..... But anyway back to the story from the other night, I think i was probably goin b/t 90 and a hundred on theose turns i exxagerated a little bit just to make the story sound better. I only realy opened it up on this long ass straight and that was really the race right there but that mazda handled really well for a four door hatchback. I dont want people to think im wreckless or anything which some of you probably do but what can i do u know? But like i said that cop scared me so bad when he flew past im not gonna be doin any more **** like that.. I need to join up with a local club i guess so we can rent out a track and do top speed runs and slaloms etc. Just a thought so if anybody in hampton roads reads this hit me up.
