Default 05 GT Kill

So I was driving back to my college town this weekend from my mom and dads. I was just relaxing and driving along slowly in my SS. All of a sudden a 05 yellow mustang GT does a fly by and gets in front of me. He kept on flooring it and then letting off a few times and showing off. I just stayed behind him. As we opened up to a 2 lane road I flew by him and he stayed behind me. Finally I slowed down to about 50 and he slowed down with me side by side, we looked at each other and took off. By the time I hit 5th gear and 130 mph I was ahead of him by 3 car lengths... Another stang for the wall. Cool guy though, as we got back beside each other he gave me a thumbs up and took off.

sounds like a good race and a cool guy. did he sound modded? i put about the same 3 cars on an 05+ before about the same speed (quit before 5th), and he was VERY loud, maybe headers.

Yah same with this guy very loud. I'm glad we let off when we did, my rear tires are as same as bald and I'd hate to have a blowout at that speed :O
