Toyed with SHO
I was out for a cruise the other night and ended up behind a SHO. I could see and hear that it had aftermarket exhaust on it, looked like flowmaster (poor guy). We turned and ended up on a two lane street side by side at a light. This was a high traffic area with many lights and cops for sure (many donut shops), so it really wasn't the time or place at all. Honestly, I really didn't want to go but there is NO WAY I was going to let that ford get ahead of me and think he took me. So the light goes green and I feather it out of the whole not even trying and get a car on him (thank you 4.10's). I could hear that he was going all out and I was only into my throttle about 1/3 the whole way lol! I stayed a car length ahead all the way to about 65 where we both let off. I could have crushed him bad! Kinda a cheezey race but oh well, still stayed out front haha! What sucks is that a 89ish GT convertible (sounded heavy with a big wing) was behind us the whole way and wanted some action as well! I turned off and was hoping he would come with me on another road where we could have got it on forsure but he went with the SHO. Wise choice!
