By all accounts they were a LONG way behind, and claimed that when they reached 160kmh he was still pulling away. Apparently the data from the cop car didn't back up their story that they were doing that speed at the time that they said they were, and how can you be sure when you're so far behind whether you're gaining on him or not.
so like keepleft said - lack of evidence = no charges. Although it seems that quite often these days people are happy to see others charged without evidence, especially when it comes to "hoon" offences. I'm sure if they're ever on the receiving end they'll change their mind about that though...
