No, I was simply following him. Not tailgating either, we were just driving together.

We both got careless. But as for treating me differently. I asked the officer(black) what was the problem? He said “Don’t be an idiot, there’s no racing here”. The first phrase offended me quite a lot because I didnt know what I did and he has no right to call me an idiot. But I asked my friend if he got treated like that too, he said “no, he was actually nice to me”

That’s pretty much it. 20 over. two 350z’s. young guys. “ok, let’s give them careless”

Two separate cars. Both 350Z. Both modified. Driving together. Both of us got careless ticket.  
It’s racist because the cop treated me more inappropriately than he did to my friend.
