Smile Mustang GT...CYA

This was just too fun not to post. Hell, it's my first post here ever, having had my roadster for 6 months now almost. I love reading about what you all are doing to your cars and get some great ideas i may use later.

However, the only thing i've done so far is put K&N air filters in my baby. So everything else is stock. Leading me to this: On Saturday, i'm coming back from Lexington KY and as i near the I75/I275 interchange in Northern KY, i'm bothered immensely by this huge "farting" sound (about the best description i can give it, sorry!). A brand new Mustang GT with modified exhaust and blower hood (fake? real? who knows) comes screaming by me. The driver was a "cap sideways" kinda fella; white guy with gold chains, etc. Well, I just couldn't have that now could I? So as we merge onto I275 in pretty decent traffic, we're weaving and bobbing and he obviously wants to go. So I go. Drop to 4th gear, and dust him at 120+ for almost a half mile. He can't catch me. Now, unfortunately, my exit was almost immediately upon me (esp. at 120+ mph) and i slowed to get off the ramp. I see him pass me and i get the finger from his buddy.

Now, the funny part. They slow down too and start to pull off the side of the road immediately after the exit ramp. I'm thinking that this turkey wants to follow me, or fight, or some such nonsense. Turns out, as i turn left back over the Xpressway, he's out of this car with the hood up and billowing smoke coming from the engine. LOL!!! The Crossfire not only just dusted a brand new modified Mustang GT, but blew the ******* up.

I'm like a proud father every time i look at my little red roadster these last few days, beating up on the school bully. It was just too funny a story not to tell.
