Exclamation SVX ran from my Jeep!!!! Who was it?!?!?!

This happened last night at about 7:00pm in Beaufort, SC.

Ever since I moved doen here I have seen a black and white SVX that drives around down here. We've passed each other every now and then and waved at eachother. But it has been about 6 months since I had seen it. About the time that I put my car in storage was the last time that I had seen it. Anyway last night I was driving back from Parris Island going to the Air Station when it passed me on the road going the other way.... Ever seen a Jeep Cherokee up on two wheels??? Well I wipped my Cherokee around so fast and ran over one of the orange construction barrels in the process. I hauled as much ass as a little 2.5 Ltr. 4 cylinder Jeep could haul to try and catch up with him.. Well I got up with him, pulled along side and was motioning to roll down his window and pull over or something. I wanted to meet him finally and invite him to join the network. Well I think that he thought that I was flicking him off or something ( it was dark) because he pulled ahead and turned off the main road. I wasn't about to let him get away that easy so I cut accross two lanes and followed him. At this point I think that I must have scared him or something because he just steped on it and shot away down the road. As soon as I saw this I started to work my shifting magic (Power shifting, Double clutching) to try and keep up. but there was no way that my little 4 banger jeep was keeping up with an awesome high speed cruiser... That didn't stop me from trying though. I chased him down these back roads for about 5 min. but finally gave up when he dissapeared on a long straight road.

I guess the whole reason for this little story is to ask if anyone knows someone in Beaufort or near that area in SC that drives a white and black SVX I'd love to know who it is to meet them. If anyone has any stories like this poast them on here for us to read.... Even though it did my jeep no good to treat it like I did for that 5-6 minutes that I was chasing that SVX, It was still a rush and kinda funny... That's an image, ... Me laughing at the situation that I am in as I'm doing about 85mph in a Jeep cherokee down back roads. Even though I didn't catch him I really had fun..... sorry for the length, the first thing that I thought after I gave up chasing was "Man I wish the Forum could have seen this!!"
