Porsche lost to the Mighty CTD!

On the way home from work today I had one of those races that you feel to need to share, it was great! I was on a 20 mile two lane highway out by Firebird raceway and I saw a new 996 Porsche coming up behind me. I was doing about 75, so I figure he was doing about 85. There was a car in front of me so I quickly went around him and the guy in the Porsche had to slow down.
This made him mad to he steps on it and trys to leave me, I set my box to 5X5 and he could not get around me, now he is really mad. We both slowed down to about 80, he then tried to show be how fast his Porsche was again. He takes off first, I reel him back in and at about 115mph I let off. He comes up next to me, I roll my windows down and he won't even look at me, he must be wondering why his new $75,000 car can't out run a big Dodge on 35" tires.
I slowed down and he wants to run again. He was in the left lane, I was in the right doing about 75mph. He takes off first and has me by a bumper for about 1 second. This time I had to rub it in, so I stuck my hand out the window and waved bye, bye and smiled. We ran to about 120mph and I had him by about 2.5 lengths. I had moved over to his lane and I saw a patrol car up ahead so I hit the brakes. He thinks I am messing with him so he swerves over to the other lane and blows my me and the cop. Needless to say, I kept going on home and he got to chat with the officer. It was priceless.
This guy would not give me a smile or a thumbs up. He was upset and would not even look at me. Which is why I didn't mine him getting pulled over.
