Before you poke fun, I wasn't the one racing
So I'm headed home on the 4 lane arterial which pretty much runs across my entire city (2 lanes each way, divided). The limit is 70 km/h, but most people with spirit take it at 90+ if traffic is sparse. It's mostly S curves with some straightaways. So I'm doing about 95-100 (it's rare to see a cop on it) and I happen to pass an early 2000 Mustang. Of course he takes this as a challenge to his manhood and promptly floors it to get around in front of me. Fair enough, I saw it was a GT and I wasn't going to pretend my protege was a fast car or anything. So I kept track of him until we happened to catch a red light in the section where the road opens into 3 lanes. The first lane was taken, and the second happened to have a late 80's 5.0 GT in it, so the GT I'm following takes the third. I got behind the newer GT and saw that both of the drivers were young guys, so it was most likely on. When the light turned green they both took off and I floored it as well to get a better view, if only for a moment, and the old ghetto 80's GT took him by 2 cars mid-way through 3rd! Of course I was about 3-4 bus lengths back at this point, but still, it was fun to see the funboy in his new GT get owned (if not by me). lol
