You are both doing it for the same reason: you want to drive fast. And you're both breaking the law.

Agreed - driving 120mph on the interstate isn't a good idea either. And if you're enjoying a canyon road, stay on your side. That comment probably tempered my point, but doing those things is less likely (although it doesn't rule it out) to involve someone else in your stupidity. I don't drive 100mph on the freeway, although I do enjoy a brisk drive down a windy road - but I'm not doing 10/10ths, or even 9/10ths, when I'm doing it. I firmly believe in leaving the 10/10ths driving for the track or the autocross course.
