Default What a fun kill

My fav kill so far. So im on the way home from work its me a v-6 New Camaro and a newer mustang (not the 5.0 one before that). So the Camaro was a noob racer so we didnt bother with him to much but the mustang comes reving up on me sounded really nice to not sure what mods were done. After all that trafic we finnaly pull up to a red light we give each other the thumbs up lol and im gonna guess he fucked up cause i pulled some cars on him so he follows me home on the free way we get the 2nd race going i got the jump on that one and he never caught up and last and final race at 75 mph roll even GO and at about 130 mph we both let off and i had a little bit more than half a car on him!

Good kill. Nothing special about 2010 GT's. They will need bolt ons to beat you and a good driver. They still only have 315hp stock.

Should have murdered that POS a little harder from a roll. Stock 4.6's, even 3Vs are pathetic.

Good kill op, the bestest kills are the ones where the other guy starts it.

It was still a fun race, I bet.

I *almost* had roughly the same match up. A guy in a newer GT lined up next to in traffic and tosses a couple revs. I thought "cool, let's do this." My problem? I'm stuck behind this slug in a BMW 540i who won't go anywhere NEAR the speed limit (no apparent engine problems and a wide open road in front of him). I ultimately had to give the 'stang driver the thumbs up and let him go. Buy the time I got around Mr. Bimmer, the Mustang was long gone.
