Default I have to brag!! "camaro beatdown"

So the other night on my way home from work (about 1130ish) this new 2010 camaro pulls right on my *** before were about to hit the freeway, he then pulls in the lane nxt to me and we wait for a left arrow under the freeway. He decides to go when it turns green so i gave it about 3/4 throttle and shifted at about 4500/5K and proceeded to pull and pass him as if he were standing still!
Im thinking to myself there is just no way he was actually on it, so i slow down to get a better look at this thing (it was not an SS) although i know the vs are rated at 300+hp stock so whatever. He pulls nxt to me and nails it again... i downshift to 4th saw no other cars on the fwy and proceed again to pass him as if he was never even on the throttle.
So now im just real curious and laughing out loud so i slow down and dshift to 3rd cruising about 55, roll my windows down, he pulls nxt to me again and i heard his downshift and his rpm rise like he is really on it. May as well have never even wasted the gas, i nail it shift at about 5k look in my mirror and see him pissed hitting his steering wheel. he did NOT pull up nxt to me again HAHAHA.
I know its kinda a pointless story i just love beating down a camaro that was thinking he was gonna show me whats up! and there was no traffic so please dont flame, it just makes me smile I am running CAI with tune and exhaust in an 06 GT thats it!

Nice I'm wondering what a SS would be like with our cars being modded.

It had to be a v6 or Im calling BS. Unless he was a horrible driver. It takes more than an intake/tune mustang to beat a camaro ss.

Yeah I did read it, Thats why I asked because why would beating a v6 car in a v8 be post worthy?

i really think our cars with a tune, cai, gears, headers and maybe cams will run with the ss...the ss is like a 13plus second car and there are plenty of mustang guys breaking mid 12's with bolt on and no blower
