I'm about a half a mile back at this point, because this was at night, and I figured I shouldn't speed by too much at night. When I saw him keep going, I said what the hell, and followed him, and we held 95-105 for about 20-25 miles before he was getting off. I did not gain on him the entire time as he was probably around the same speed. When I finally caught up just as he was about to exit, I saw he was running what looked like an 8500 and we gave the "whats up" nod to eachother as we parted. He helped take my commute from 40 to 45 min to 23 min on the dot. Very cool guy, wasn't living in the left lane, used his signal, he was a good driver in my book.

ANYWAY. What are your best experiences of using a Rabbit?

Nice one.

While not my best rabbit encounter, this one is worth showing....in the end, the rabbit was just in the wrong place at the right time.

Just a few weeks ago I was following a lexus IS doing about 85 in a 65. After 20 mins he gets off then I look in my rearview mirror and saw there are 5 cars tailing me. So decided to lead the way, dumb move since the area was very hilly with plenty of potential for speed traps but it was fun leading a bunch of cars.

Haha I always like to lead, and leading a pack of five would definitely be fun until the flashing lights ruin the party.

My all time favorite was on 95 southbound in Va. for those not familiar with the road, theres a good 70ish mile stretch where the highway is divided by trees, and every 1/4 mi or so theres a authorized vehicle uturn area, prime spots for cops to hide out, which they always do. theres a girl driving at least 100 (PSL is 70 I believe, possibly 65). I was the second or 3rd car behind her, about a 1/4 mile back and there had to be at least 8 or 9 cars following me. Her brake lights came on just in time for her to pass a LEO doing over 100. all 10 or so of us slow to psl and pass her and the cop on the side of the road.

A few miles down the road, I make a pit stop at the NC welcome center to empty the tank and see 3 different people with 3 different out of state tags laughing infront of their cars and all talking about how great of a rabbit she was. Talk about team work haha

I've never had anything interesting or do you prefer meetings with rabbits. My favorite videos and stories related to the rabbit is pulled up, though.

1) Had five rabbits going from Gallup to Albuquerque. I think the average speed for the trip was over 105. Record time but I was wore out from the speed.
2) Had a rabbit from Tennessee driving through Colorado. We were over 100 and he kept on pulling away. Finally at 110, I just let him go.
3) Best was I was in my Vette and was the Rabbit. A big truck kept on blocking my advance. Of course I had lots of adjectives for his behavior. Well 5 miles down the highway there were two state leos in the median waiting for bait. When I passed the trucker later, he just smiled and waved. Saved me from being stupid.
