Location: Emirates Road

It was a calm, peaceful drive until this gray Nissan Tiida started getting under my skin by driving slow and slowly swerving left and right within the second lane. Furious, I was able to overtake him at 120KPH. He was trying to catch up at some point so I increased my speed to 125KPH. I didn't want him to stay in front of me because he was so annoying. He was able to overtake me before reaching RAK so I slowly overtook him again at 125KPH. I finally decided to drop the race upon reaching the RAK city limits.

I had a similar case during my return trip to SHJ. It was with an old Mitsubishi Lancer though.

Though the 1.6 Tiida is light, it's still no match for the 1.8 Civic, so it was prolly the 1.8 model.

That's very nice, inspiring though I would never do that. Otherwise don't race or least don't call it a race bud! :grin:

I mean race under speed limits :arrow:

The radars flash at 140 kmph!

Well, I was pumped-up that day because I watched all 4 F&F movies the night before. Anyway, the guy in the Tiida was getting under my skin because of the way he drives so I had to overtake him and keep him behind me. That's what made it feel like a race. :grin: And, fortunately, he wasn't driving so fast so I overtook him using cruise control.

In general, nobody won.
But if it were based on my rule book, the finish line is the right turn entering RAK from Emirates Road. And I got there first. Had to slow down within the city limits.
