Close encounters of the Stangalang kind.

My encounter was kinda funny. The other night I was on the way to work, and was on northbond Central Expressway (75), and was around Parker when I noticed these headlights planted firmly on my ass. I was like...WTF??, so I swithced lanes to the right after a few seconds, and the car pull up besides me and gives me a stare, and takes off. What an asshole!. The car was a white Mustang GT (4.6), pre -1999. It gets up the road about 500-1000 ft before I pursue. He's going at a good speed, so it takes a little time to catch him. When I catch up to him, he's at about 100 MPH, and I put my headlights on his ass! Needless to say, he guns it, and puts some distance between us, but never more than 3-5 car-lengths as I pursue. I close some of the distance, and get to a car-length away at 130+ MPH for about 10-15 seconds. Traffic is approaching, and I slow it down. He weaves on through traffic!:eek: I catch up to him at cruise speed as I am about to exit in Allen, and he looks over at me with this look of, "DURR! How'd you do that George?" He takes off again, I exit.

DISCLAIMER: Please read the story carefully so you do not post any ill-informed posts about this encounter! My car (MP3) is DEFINITELY slower than this car, and the events of this incident have to do with many factors. This is not a "my car is better than your's story."
 
Haha, I see you have a disclaimer now due to some people not being able to read.:D
 
LOL love the disclaimer Linux! Don't want a bunch of Mustang people coming here and talking smack!

Ya I've waxed a bunch of Stangs at autocross..they suck! No no just kidding I actually am a car lover in general...there aren't too many cars that I genuinely dislike.
 
"I close some of the distance, and get to a car-length away at 130+ MPH for about 10-15 seconds."... :eek:

Whew, just be careful buddy! That awfully fast to be drafting that close.... It was probably fun getting that look from the Mustang's driver. *Thumbs up*
