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.
