Default he asked for it...

Since it was fathers day and all yesterday, I took my dad out to eat. On the way home this green 95-98 mustang comes outta nowhere, rides my *** for a while and then pulls up next to me giving me "the look !" I had my 64 year old dad in the car, plus I just lost a court case for speeding to the EMERGENCY ROOM, so I wasn't gonna race him. He had some mods done, sounded like a full exhaust at least, so it was a little tempting. We both got off at the same exit and ended up next to each other again, him still giving me the look. Anyways I resisted until he got bored and speed off, but at the next stop sign he waited for me. As i pulled up my dad was like "smoke his ***." I pulled at least 2 car lengths by the next stop sign no more than 1/8 mile away. Next race produce the same results. I know its not a KB cobra or nothin, but I've never raced with a senior citizen in the car before

Nice kill. Don't forget, your dad probably raced more than you do when he was young. I'd love to be able to take my pops for a full out run but his back can't handle the G's.

He did have a nice '71 Pontiac Ventura (like a pontiac version of a nova), but I don't think he's the racing type. He usually drives 10mph UNDER the speed limit.
