Ok ok, so I had a little juvenile behavior today. A guy in a Mustang was driving aggressively and obnoxiously so I decided to surprise him a little bit. He attempted to pass me three times from a stop and failed three times after I hit the gas a bit. Each time he ended up falling back in behind me, since he was making the same turns I was. Each time he pulled out to pass, he was unable gain any ground, and then gave up to make his turn. So we weren't doing hypersonic speeds or anything. It was still pretty funny though.

Not sure what kind of Mustang it was, but it certainly was no V6. I have a GLT SE with IPD ECU + Exhaust. I felt like he gave me a nice run for my money. He was the first one to even come close to keeping up with me. He kept up pretty well the first time, but I wasn't mashing the petal into the carpet either. In addition, my AC was on and with the higher humidity today, I've certainly had more power from the car. A stock Mustang 5.0 older than a few years old is good for at best 0-60 in the low 6's and probably much worse, so this all is probably no big surprise for anyone.
