I'd just picked up my 05 GT and was driving along an inter city highway doing the speed limit and enjoying my new baby on a fine spring day. I glance at the rear view and I see a running silver pony barreling down on me going at least 80 in a 45. As the other
stang catches up to me it slows, does the ever so slow drive by head hanging out the window, checking out the new model. Looks to be a 98 GT with some stripes, exhaust and a mid twenties
stang lady driving it.
The road closes down to 1 lane and I drop in behind the other
stang. About a block after that it opens up into a 3 lane interchange highway as 2 other lanes merge into the single to create about a 10 mile strip of interchange highway that climbs slowly up a hill, excellent visibility. Being at the back of a pack of traffic she changes into the center lane and slows down, getting next to me again. We slow down side by side to about a 10mph roll. Letting the traffic ahead of us walk out some distance. I can tell she wants to see if the new GT has legs, and I'm just waiting for her to make her move. (heck I really wanted to see how it would run). When the traffic gets about a mile ahead of us, she guns it. I put the pedal down, walking past her easily, ran it up to 80 and shut it down. She had fallen behind about 5-7 car lengths by then but must have kept the pedal to the floor as she gave me a 100mph fly by with a big thumbs up out the window as she went screaming by.
