But he was obviously pulling on me and got a little over a car length in front before I made a 3rd to 6th shift and cruised back a little closer to the speed limit. He ended up turning left very shortly after I backed off. Oil temps increased noticeably in the short run, so I was reminded that I need an oil cooler - I have been driving it pretty easy lately both because of the hot weather and in an attempt to preserve tire tread as much as possible.
