Default Mustang GT goes down

Mustang GT on my rear for a bit so I changed over to left lane. He guns past me then pulls in front of me - OK fine I see you. We come to a red light at the bottom of a hill but there’s a car in right lane so I can’t line up. Light turns green and he lays a little scratch and flies, so I joined the parade. As soon as I cleared the car on my right I took that lane and pulled right passed him. He was making all kinds of noise, his engine sounded way strained to me. I shot past that thing easily; I really was surprised how effortless it seemed. 3 car lengths ahead (and still gaining) I tapped my brakes and gave a couple of victory wags with the wheel. At the next light he pulled up to me in the left turn lane and did give me thumbs up so all was good. That’s one Stang GT that may now respect Hemi Rams.

Nobody advocates street racing, but once in a while you have to put the fast and furious wannabees in their place through a proper introduction to Mr. Hemi. I had to teach a young BMW driver (who put a loud muffler on daddy's car) a quick lesson after he cut in front of me, while showing off. From a 20MPH roll he was smoked, probably went home and asked daddy for a Porsche!!

Disagree with you and I am far from being a liberal. Why don't you try street racing in front of a police officer sometime and give your answer. Racing is for the track. Don't take this personal, but having a friend loose his daughter in a car accident because two people thought it was ok to race on the isolated road. They gave the statements of, the road was clear and we never saw her. I am personally dead against showing off on public roads. Wish the moderators would delete this type of threads.

Sorry for your loss but he has just as much of a right to post a thread as you. As said above, if you can drive and the road is clear who cares, it is an american thing to stop light drag race. So stop trying to mommy people, no one made you open this thread.

Your right you can post what you want. The point is you may think its safe to race when in fact in may not be because its not a controlled enviroment. So go ahead a race. I'll just make sure I stay out of your way.
