    I didn't take any crazy risks with passing! I do respect other drivers on the road (and anyone on this run will attest to me slowing down respectively for any biker, person hiking, or slow moving vehicle.) I'm not the one to fly past everyone doing 90 just to be ignorant and attempt to scare them. I'd hate to bring my little sister up there or friends just to encounter doing something crazy, so I keep that in mind also.

    Edit: And if you want a viable excuse, I'm sure when Andy took that photo, he was much closer to Dominic in the e30! Because of the wide angle of the lense on the camera it makes everything look much more out of porportion than they really are! That curve wasn't anywhere near within 80ft of us, and Dominic wasn't 6 cars ahead of Andy! We stayed pretty tight after everyone figured out their limits in the beginning (I guess I didn't, OMG'ers lolerz....)

    And don't worry, I wouldn't want a nOOb who's arrogant to the fact that everyones car doesn't handle on rails with me on one anyone!

    It's like nagging at someone who loves to drift when they spin their car into an embankment! It comes with the territory, get over it.....
