Killed a 5.0 on highway
Me and my buddy are drivin my 1997 camaro z28, auto tranny... were on the highway when all of the sudden a very loud 5.0 mustang flies by ( foxbody ). He must of been doin around 120 - 130 because i was doin about 85 90 and he looked like he was really flyin. I punch it, the camaro downshifts and i start catchin him, im doin about 140 now and im catchin him fast ( highways were completely empty ) i finally just blow his doors off.. im guessing he was still on the throttle just becasue it sounded so damn loud like it was at high revs... I slow down and we do the 3 honks and i pull about 6-7 cars on him up to 135... i thought it was a pretty good first kill for the Z...

Geez I must live in the wrong area or maybe it's just the snow and weather up here but in NEPA. The only 5.0 I see anymore are rusted out junk who can't get out of their own way.

Good kill on the 5.0 though sometimes you get lucky and run into a fast one although i have yet to run into one on the street here
