"LOL" you have 42 posts so i don't think you should be calling anybody an "asshole" mr. pedobear
i'm sure he wasn't driving "slow"
if you read the original story, nobody was passing, they were racing to get to the single lane therefore it WAS some sort of a race because the HHR did peel out at the light, meaning he was attempting to accelerate quickly, meaning that he had an intention of getting to the single lane before the fx. therefore, since the fx decided to slam the gas one could see this as some sort of race.
and in response to what you said about 909fx's story....
it was obviously some sort of race if they got up to 120.
a lot of people including me, will sometimes do this just to test the speed of the FX compared to the "passing" vehicle. For example, there is a riced out civic riding your ass, and he goes to pass you, are you just going to let him pass? (75% of people will just say yes and let them pass) NO. downshift and VROOOOM don't let that guy pass, show the true power of the FX and put the other driver in thier place.

so if the guy tried to pass and they both borught it up to 120....pretty sure you can consider that a race haha
