freeway encounter

well on the way to east la at about 11:45pm on the 5 frwy North .i was just cruising around 70 ish and see a black car come flying by doing aropund 90. I instantly think "someone is racing" and start to look in my rearview to maybe getout of the way if I have to. sure enough a green integra and a white older hatch (89-91) come flying by.They all slow down just a bit in front of me. The white hatch has some dude in the back who is staring at my car. The hatch then starts to slow down and pace me. I usually opt out of these things but what the hell traffic was light. I look over at him hoping hes not swapped, switch into hi 4th gear, and pace him at about 60mph and wait for a move, honk, or anything. He stomps on it and I do like wise. he got the junp, but I start to pull on him and put my rear bumper to his front by about 90mph. I slow back down to 70 and watch. He gets in front of me and lines up next to the teg. the 2 cars directly in front of me side by side. They start to slow down all the way to 40mph. I guess to put some room infront. I am stuck behind them both so I might as well jump when they do just to see what the teg has. They both take off and I floor it. I pull on them both and get kind of get within half of a car to both of thier rear bumpers. Not wanting to tail gate I let off. Both of these guys are slow. I was hoping for more but I had to get on the 710.

nahhh.... I don't how much he has dumped into it, but just looking at his mod list I have to say he hasn't touched the internals of the engine, that is generally the breaking point.
