Default Early 90s Mustang GT kill

I had picked up my friend, Sarah, and we were on the way to the movies last night when I see an early 90s red Mustang GT vert speeding out infront of traffic to beat it. Didn't think much of it. Couples miles later he's still upfront, so I stay behind him so I can beat some slow traffic. Get to the next light and he floors it, so I'm thinking...hehe, he wants to play.

Get to the next light and we're side-by-side. He sounded like it had a cam in it and definitely exhaust. I don't launch my car so I was off-idle when it was about to turn green, I hear him tach it up a little so I just put it to 2 grand. I ease the clutch out(LOL stock clutch, getting ready to turn 100k miles ) and he floors it, gets about a half car to a car on me. At the top of 1st, we're almost nose to nose, I shift into 2nd and by the top of second, I had a car on him. 45mph zone(5 lane road, 2 going each way and a turning lane all the way down the center) so I only took it up to 60-65 and then let out of it, had a car or so on him. I slow down to give a friendly wave and he quickly put his turn signal on and turned. Doh.

Nice kill!!! That wasn't nice. He could have easily given you the thumbs up sign...oh well...everyone is not a friendly loser.
