Talking H/C LT1 vs 360 Ferrari

I had a real long day at work, then class at night. I go to my car getting ready for my 40 min drive home with the top down. I'm headed down route 18 and I see these taillights up ahead in traffic that look like a modena. I get closer and sure enough it was....so my heart starts racing a bit, I'm getting excited, plus the car is daaamn gorgeous (ferrari red). I'm following him hoping he goes to route 1 like I am. Sure enough he does, and as we go to merge on he hits it and wow does it sound beautiful. I keep pace nicely and jump into the left lane and start pacing him just hoping for him to hit it. He tries to talk to me but I cant hear him over our cars, but I do hear him downshift. I immediately blip the throttle and quickly downshift into third. A second later he hits it and I hit it a split second after....oh crap he is pulling a bit(damn heavy *** vert lol). As the top of third comes around, his pull is stopped and I'm starting to gain momentum. I go for a quick shift at 6400rpm and bang third with him still on it. Now I'm pulling and slowly running by him. I let off at 115ish with me up by around 2+ cars up. I slow down and so does he and we exchange a thumbs up. Then he takes off again and I just sit and listen to how that ferrari v8 sung.

I did not spray him btw and my top was down lol. Really exciting night and topped off a long and rough day.

I don't normally like exotic cars. I'm really a Camaro/Chevelle/Impala (even station wagon) kind of guy, but I really, really have a soft spot for a Ferrari.
