[QUOTE="Toecutter, post: 506696, member: 74"] Drop two gears, pin it. It will seem like they're parked and you'll fly right by. Safer in spots where they don't have the room to pass and you do. You can always roll off and slide back into the proper lane if there's less room than you estimated. My personal passing speed limit is established by the FJR rev limiter. Last weekend, I pulled that move (3 vehicles), only to discover some parked vehicles at the roadside up ahead where there usually shouldn't be any. Mash the binders, haul it down to allowed speed, and discovered the local speed troll had two cages pulled over. He didn't even notice me, although I would have been the big fish that day if he'd clocked me ten seconds sooner. On my way back through there, my Escort served me well, as it was dark and I was on a mission to get home. [/QUOTE]
