Another Rustang kill

Today I was on the Galveston bridge (going north), I'm actually behaving and only doing 70 or so, I'm approaching this late model Rustang GT who is on the far right lane (I'm in the middle), just before I passed him he starts accelerating, so I give it a little gas, we are both doing about 80, then I see some brown smoke (not too much) comming out of the pipes (I know he just punched it) so I punched it too, by 120 mph I'm passing him and he lets go, so I wait for him, I'm doing 80 when he gets behind me, a car moves so I have clear freeway ahead of me, I punch it and he does too (he is behind me, trying to pass me or at least keep up), I start pulling away from him, so by 120 I let go and get ready to exit, he exits behind me as well, at the light he pulls next to me and tells me that this is a very fast car for a Benz, I thank him and tell him that that is the deal with AMGs, anyway he asks me to race him at the green as he has some mods (we didn't have time to discuss his mod), I say OK!

Green light comes on , we both punched it at the same time (he drives a mnual transmission), he launched fine with no spinning, by 35 mph he chirps as he shifts to second gear, at about 65 mph he is on my rear bumper, and I let go of the gas because I'm quickly approaching my destination, so I give him the thumb up and wave bye

Another Rustang to the list

I've had other quick kills over the last few days but not worth writting the whole story, a pick up, 2 civics and one Jaguar XJ8 who actually was a 80 to 130 sprung but he was in the dust as well.

Nice kill poch!!!! You should have like a sign on the side of your car showing how many kills youve had. To annoy the other person even more, get a marker and put an X on the sign after you beat him in a race!!!

Top This Stang Kill

Opened up a can of Woop Azz on a Roush Mustang at 155MPH where I couldn't see him anymore. I was in my S500C - modified. Not bad for a Tank, huh?
