GT vs Turbo Z28 I'm not posting this to boast about the 99-04 GT convertible that I annihilated yesterday. This post is about guys who do not give props when they are due. Also, I'm not picking on Mustang drivers.
I was driving home from work and not really in the race mood, when a silver GT vert. rolled up on my rear bumper. We had just turned onto a two lane road, and it seemed like he wanted to get around me. He was so far up my *** that I expected him to give me a reach-around any second. I burped out a quick first and second gear blast and put a considerable amount of black top between us. I slowed back down and expected him to roll on by in the clear lane beside me.
I thought that my impressive sprint away from his *** reaming would deter any thoughts of him attempting a race with me, but no deal. The guy looks over at me and gives me one of those "yea right buddy" smirks.
I thought perhaps a quick pop of the blowoff valve next to his greasy-haired head would wipe the smirk off his face and clue him in on the humiliation he would face if he proceeded to taunt me. But no dice, another smirk and a laugh. I thought to myself, this guy either does not know a whole lot about cars, or he's hiding something. I continued to ponder, Ok, you've got my interest there grease ball. Let's see what you've got, it's on!
I slowed to about 4500 RPM in first, and he matched my speed. I decided to place my front bumper at his door and let him have the hit. After a short while, he took the hit! I lit the fuse and held on as the rear tires tried desperately to grip the road. I grabbed second and rocketed past him, both rears etching permanent tracks in the asphalt and creating a wonderful melody of turbo scream, engine roar and tire snarl.
As I jetted past him, I swear I saw my shockwave smack him on the back of the head, knocking his nerdy glasses from his face. Ok, maybe I imagined that part but it was a blast roasting past him at 40 with both rear tires ablaze. I looked back after grabbing third and was happy to see that an entire cruise ship could occupy the space between he and I.
That did it I thought, he'll be rolling up next to me with a big thumbs up and a "dude! that's awesome!". But no, after I slowed back down to the speed limit (and waited a while) he gave me the ricer flyby! What an ***. Get back here and give me my props nerd boy!
I continued my speed limit cruise and caught back up to him in traffic that was slowing for a light. The *** clown gives me another smirk and a chuckle looking at my car, then proceeds to punch it in a 25 mph zone. I guess he thought that his car was angry from being beaten like that, and it would try harder this time. I did not follow his lead though, and kept it at 25 mph. He turned off onto a side road and blasted away, greasy hair blowing in the wind.
I know that when I get beaten like that, I give the winner the props that they deserve. I also want to know what mods they have etc. I take a loss as motivation to continue modding. Some people!

That is great.
There are some stupid people around. Wish he would have learned the lesson. Big thumbs up here.

I was getting ready to call bs until you caught yourself, no way is greasy hair going to blow in the wind 
Very good story, its actually amazing that sometimes when you show people what you have (quick blasts etc) they still have no freakin clue.

Nice kill and story, give us broke guys a good image of what it's like to have turbo power. Even though I've never been beaten by an import yet, I'd love to be able to return a little hiss at them and see the look on their faces, hopefully they'll have more of a clue than "nerd boy" . One day.....
