Default 1st time since blower

Came upon an '04 Coupe on a popular stretch of highway near my town, everybody goes up there to open her up. I've seen the guy around, his car has the usual boltons.
It's a nice flat stretch about 3/4 mile long.
I was behind him by about 10 car lengths, we were both doing about 60, then he hammers it.
I was in 3rd, I hammer it and ran right up on him in about2 seconds, soI had toget off the gas for a second, he kept on it, so I floored it again and banged fourth at 95, ran right up on him again, I couldn't believe how much fasterI was then him.
This was from a 60mph roll, at the strip I would have beat him by at least 15-20 car lengths.
It was my first time sinceI got my S/C 3 months ago that I had the chance to really see what I had, and I wasn't disappointed.
At the stop sign, he went left, I went right, we both honked and waved,
just two mustang guys out having fun.

Can't wait to get mine done!

(hijack) Hey 8banger how you like the 4.10's with the vortech? I'm planning on getting a supercharger but would rather not change gearing

yes, the car is like night and day once you get boosted. I have a vert also and saw your mods, you got any pics of your car with the saleen tonneau cover and the light bar??? I am contemplating on whether I want that or the tonneau cover with the cobra bars.
