Default another one bites the dust

I'm on the way home from the post office getting on interstate and when I check mirriors to bear on I see nothng behind me but a minivan. When I bear on I was shocked to see a green GT with racing stripes right beside me. He was in my blind spot when I got on I guess. As I look over I see what appears to be Captin Cool, as he looks back at me with his slimline sunglasses and hat on backwards to the side. He pulls up front and I see euros and some kind of aftermarket exhaust. I pull along side him with open interstate in front of us rolling about 60 and I give him the initial hit. It didn't really help him much. I was in 3rd and don't know what he was but by the time I got to 4th there was already 2 lengths. We get off on the next exit and get right back on going the opposite direction. This time in 2nd gear with the only traffic being about 1/4 mile behind us. I blow the horn three times from a 35 roll and by the end of 3rd around 90mph there was about 2 bus lengths seperating us. Guy turned out to be pretty cool with the thumbs up after the races. My signifigant mods are bolt'ons, 224 cam, and 4.10's.

I didn't pick! I hate being the instigator anyway. I casually passed and he got on my bumper, so I geared down and so did he. It was mutual.

Yup, I don't care if it's a midget on a scooter, he throws a rev at me, it's on!
Good spanking.

Nice kill. Sounds like my race after my cam install. This 96 4.6 mustang gt with flowmaster and chrome 18 inch cobra wheels pulls along side me on my way home from a basketball game and is reving his engine. I kinda gave him the thumbs up and waved him by as the two lane 55 mpg road we were on has a ton of cops. Kid didnt get the point and kept goosing it and slamming on his brakes next to me so I honked it off, gave him the jump (about a car or so) and proceeded to walk him bad. Kid was cool and talked to me at the next light but wouldnt believe that I was stock CI cam only. He was convinced I sprayed him.

Both myself and Kyles200Z are in Upstate SC. I am in Spartanburg and he is in Duncan. We are in a car club called Upstate F-body. We have our own sub-forum on clubhioctane.com. Check it out if you get a chance.

And yes, I have to agree that GT's are esteem boosters. 03 cobra's, different story.
