Good Death

So I am driving home on 35W and up ahead of me is some sort of white with blue strips exotic looking car, so I'm thinking, well theres light traffic, so I speed up to catch it. As I get closer, it turns out to be a Ford GT. I have never seen one of these on the road, only at shows. So I get ancy and eventually get beside him. The guy thats driving is probably like 50 or so and glances over, so I give him a rev and he gives me one back. He honks three times and we both can it. Well, I kept up with him for like a second or so and he just pulled away from me bad, by the time I hit 120, he had to have been at least 1 1/2 bus lengths ahead of me. I eventually get back to him and try it again, same result. I got back to him for a third time and gave him a thumbs up and he did the same. Seemed like a nice guy and must be rough to have money. Just wanted to share my experience, thats the best race I have had in a while, even though I lost, but it was still fun, beats the hell out of racing ricers all the time.

Nice death, seems ford really did do something right but with a huge price tag.
So what mods did you have?

they look very nice... My dad Raced one... in Florida on Vacation to Disney on the TurnPike... we where in a rental Volvo S60... my dad was pushing about 120+mph with my mom and niece sleepin in the back... and the guy wasn't even really trying and kept pullin away as if we where only doing 60mph...

... god I wish I had Z06 or something THAT fast... hehe

Gramps knew to throw you three honks? Strange. Who says that old people aren't cool.

Almost every bolt on and 3400 stall. I have a TR224 cam in my garage, I wish I had it installled already, I think I would have kept up with him a little better.
I was surprisede also that he threw me three honks first, I guess he road races a lot and if I had that car, Iwould be doing the same thing.
