Default Run in with a Mach 1

i was on my way home from work yesterday and this Mach 1 comes up next to me and begins to rev. I'm cruising in 6th gear and just keep it there to make him think I'm stock, lol, my exhuast is quiet in 6th. His mach sounded as if it may have had only an intake and catback, so anyway, he rolls up next to me with his one hand on the steering wheel i guess feeling he is superior to me. At 65mph, I blip the throttle in 6th to let him know i'm game, then he drops gears and start to accelerate. I immediately drop to 2nd at 65mph, and by the time my front fender is at his front wheel, i surge forward and put 2 quick cars on him and shut down. I didn't even get a chance to get in 3rd gear......

My guess is LT headers, CAI, and a cam.
