Dan recognizes the Pasadena Fwy. (oldest one in LA) is ideal for these maneuvers.

Just to clarify, I AM very familiar withthe Pasadena Fwy and it is VERY hazardous in general, its an OLD design. But its not like I know it so well that I EVER smoked some jackass trying to drive a Civic up my butt or anything! Its not like I did it in my old 944 and left him....uh....er....needing to change his under garments when he realized he couldn't take that curve matching my speed or he'd end up IN the Arroyo.

And of course, I have not since done it in my old '76 911 with my tail wagging "juuust a bit outside" while I passed the 350Z owner that gave me a down-his-nose smirk when he had passed me just moments before on a straight Its not like it would make him nod and give me my due afterward or anything. As an older guy with nothing to prove anymore I know better than to do these things......well, okay, I'm tempted just occasionally.
