So in the time it took you to travel 70ft from the Morse South entrance of the RAB to the Stillwater West exit, about 3 seconds, the other car overtook you.
Since you didn't see the other car it either needed to be a little ways down Stillwater to the east or coming around the circle. In either case, that would be about 300 feet from the Stillwater West exit.
For the other car to travel 300 feet (otherwise you would have seen it) in the same 3 seconds it took you to get to the exit (otherwise it would have been behind you) the math says the car would need to be traveling between 50mph and 75mph through the RAB (and possibly from a standing start at the Stillwater gate).
