Default Cannibalism

Driving home from work yesterday on the interstate I saw a black mustang. I don't get the chance too often to actually go against a newer mustang. I pulled up next to it, and saw it was a black GT vert with aftermarket mufflers. I stay with him a while to get him to go, and he finally gets in the far right while im in the far left to pass a car in the middle. Right when he passes the other car he really takes off and I finally come even with him. He hits it from about 60-65 and I hit it immediately as well. I got up to about 110-115 and had prob 4 cars on the guy. I was excited cause I actually got to see the difference in my tune and bolt on parts, and it was pretty cool. I actually over rev'd in third cause I kept looking over to see where the other car was, so I actually could have beat him by more. What ya guys think?

Good kill.... as long as you're both cool folks, a little cannibalism is ok. :-)

My dad has a stock 07 with 3.55s and I have just intake/tune with 3.31s and I pull on him from any rpm in any gear. Just the intake/tune makes a huge difference.

I actually prefer cannibalism.... in this type of situation that is I know where I started and I know where they started and I want to see who's come further.

Nice kill. I bet from a lower roll it would have been even worse for him.
