Cigar Shape flying north of the 92 mm on I-30 with a plane following.

I was Westbound on I-30 at exactly the 92 mile marker at 11:50pm around Social Hill,Ar on Aug. 25, 2004.

The craft was going north (towards Hot Springs) and it had 2 non flashing lights on each end and it was cigar shaped. It was flying, I guess sideways, like if an airliner was flying sideways with no wings. The bottom was grayish black and lights were reflecting off itself but not flashing and they were yellowish.

It was about 1500 to 2000 ft. up and so was the plane following it.

That plane was one of those that take off from a small airport but I dont know what kind, I do know it was'nt a jet. They were about 3/4 of a mile apart with the object out in front of the plane. BTW The object was about as long as a passenger jet but flying much too slow or low to be one.
