OK, this happened to me last thursday night, at the time i didnt think much of it, but i was just reading a thread on something similar happening to
someone else...
Here goes:
I was driving home at around from a friends house and another friend of mine was following. We hit a fast stretch of road (80km/h) and a car got in
between my friend and I. I sped off at 90km/h figuring my friend would meet me at mine, the car behind me must've been goin around 60km/h coz i lost
his headlights around a corner and my friend still behind him for all i knew.
Ok now i think i need to explain the road we were driving on. Its pretty much a long country road (i live 20-30 mins from the house we were driving
from) with a few bends here and there. There are plenty of overtaking opportunities. The road is pitch black (no lighting) and the only light came
from my high beams.
I drive a 3.8L V6 (lots of power) my friend was driving a Suzuki Seirra (4 cylinder, small 4x4, not much power) and the car between us looked like a
red 80's model hathback of some sort (possibly ford laser, or similar 4 cylinder car).
Anyway here i am zooming along this road (yes still over the speed limit), and a few minutes after losing my friend and the car between us i come
across a suzuki sierra, just like my friends, going at about 70km/h. Thinking it was just a coincidence i proceed to overtake this slow vehicle and as
i pull to the other side of the road i see a red hatch a few metres ahead. This is when i figured something wierd had happened. As i pass the suzuki i
look in the drivers window to see my friend looking out at me in amazement. i pass both cars and get home ASAP.
When i friend arrives about 5 mins after me we both pretty much said the same thing to each other at the same time...
How did he get ahead of me? I know the road better than him, there is no short-cut he could've taken, i saw no other cars on the road coming from
either direction, let alone two cars overtaking me, my car is more powerful than both cars. My friend thought i was playing a trick on him, but i
assured him i wasnt and that somehow he had gotten ahead of me without me slowing down or either of us realising.
Another point is i had music playing as well and i didnt notice it skip or anything, it was flowing constantly. It feels like i dissapeared for a
short time (the exact timing i'm not sure i didnt really check the time but it had to be at least 10 mins for him to get that far ahead of me after
being so far behind).
Has this happened to anyone else before? i know there are stories of lost time or what not, abd these tend to be blamed on alien abductions. But i'm
not too knowledged on these things (i have an interest but as you probably noticed i rarely venture into the UFO/Aliens Forum). Would i be abducted
for like 10 mins?
Any Ideas?
