Default First action of the year

Not a whole lot to write about, but I had just left KFC headed to the store to pick up some ice cream for the Mrs. when this '05 GT goes by. I pull out and wind up right behind him, waiting for an opening in traffic on the 4-lane. Welp, he apparently was game 'cuz he ripped out of there like crazy. Keep in mind, I was behind this dude when he took off. Anywho, I hit it, shifted around 5000 rpm for some reason, and managed to put three cars on him before turning off to go to the store, not counting what he had from being infront of me and getting a serious jump.

A little action... I'm good for the rest of the week.
