Old Rivalry

Was driving today and at down the road was a Fox Mustang GT pulling out in front of me (idk the exact year) but i was coming up on him thinking" dang A-hole now hes gonna pull out in front of me and drive slow" but in fact he got up to speed very fast and started pulling away from me so i got on it to catch up. Well he was doing about 75 when i got behind him and he started to pull again so i nailed it and i came up behind him and pulled right on by him. Nice guy he gave me a nice wave but looked very surprised to see me passing him. It was a nice car so i gave him a thumbs up when i slowed down to turn and we parted directions.

Re: Old Rivalry

No not a boycott, just kind of a cheesy story. Im sure it was nice when you were there, but in words, its not so great.

Sounds like:

So there was this guy, givin me a look like he wanted to fight, and then he walked up to me and we didnt fight, but we made up anyway.....

Re: Old Rivalry

what are you talking about? we raced and i beat him.... why is my story cheesy? its really not.. and the thumbs up was a compliment and a way of saying nice race.. i did the same thing to a 70's olds cutlass that i beat too... don't see how its wrong to do?

Re: Old Rivalry

It's not a Cobra I can almost assure it. Especially if he took a hit and you (on the top end none the less) pulled on him. Probably a stocker for your car to walk him from a high roll. Probably a BAD running stocker for you to let him get the hit and then proceed to catch up and pull on him.

Re: Old Rivalry

racing at 70+ mph isnt really racing.. im not putting u down, if you smoked a shIIstang, cool! but next time out go from a dig, or a 20-40mph roll, thats a race, then report back. you prob pulled him from that speed because you have 273 gears, who knows the guy could have 4.10's and was outta gear by that speed.
----------
most street races should end at 75, not start, thats just dangerous.
