91 firebird vs 240

well i was on my home today from class and as im turning on to this 4 lane road i see a mid 90's yellow mustang in the opposite lane about to turn on the same road. i give it a little gas and turn before he does hoping that maybe he would want to play a little. he immediately turned on the next road and i was disappointed...at first. right behind him was an early 90's 240 and i see him comin up behind me pretty fast. he slows down a little once he gets closer but doesnt stay beside me. instead he has to pass me and get in my lane. so i thought, this kid seems like hes in a hurry. maybe he'll play. so we get past some traffic and hes doin about the speed limit so i decide to pass him with the car in 3rd gear(~50mph) nice and slow so he can get a good look at the car and hear it. i get about 2 cars ahead of him and he never makes an attempt to get beside me. then we come to a red light. oh boy! i casually look over and notice that this kid looks like hes maybe a junior in hs. really young lookin kid. and in the passenger seat is, im guessing, his girlfriend. then i start to chuckle. after what seemed like an eternity, the light turns green and i give it a firm start but not an all out launch. the kid is right next to me the entire time. after hearing that he didnt shift immediately and that he was pacing me, i began giving it more and more throttle. about halfway through first gear, we both gave it WOT and i immediately pulled out to his front bumper. by second it was pretty much over. i had about a car and a half and he wasnt pullin back in. so about a 1/2mi later we have to slow down for another red light but this time we arent the first two cars. as he comes rolling by me, i look over and hes just staring straight ahead with this super pissed off look on his face. then he turned off and that was the end of that.
