My boss as a 2000 Z28 with only flows and always talks about racing mustangs. He's like this whining fat man that complains about everything. Well, we caught each other at a light today. I'm in my 97 GT CONVERTIBLE (with only Flows, K&N, & UDP), he smiles thinking he's just gonna roast me. The only major advantage I have is that my car's manual, while he's auto. From the line I jumped the hell out of him and he didn't have enough room to catch me. At the next light, he's got this completely blank expression on his face like 'How did this just happen'. We go again and I spun a little, but we stayed side by side, then he began to slowly pull me on top end, which I expected. He was just completely amazed that I 'kept up' with him. HA!! Since it was my boss (which I don't care for that much), it was just such a great feeling to see him in my rear view, while another co-worker was riding with me.

He must be one sucky driver...his car is well over 1.5 seconds faster than yours in the quarter...probably closer to 2 seconds faster.

nonetheless...Nice win!

I know!?!?!? That's why it made it so nice. I know he slept at the light for one thing, but I was extremely suprised at how close we were when I was going to third the second time. My bumper was about even with his door, but of course, I missed third like an idiot At least I didn't the first time and stayed way in front of him.

Yeah I once beat a Porsche 944 in my first ride, a Chevy S-10! The guy went to shift into 2nd and completly missed the gear. HAHA. Luckily I turned before he could catch back up.
