I was on the beltway (495) with two of my friends in my Z. My car's a ttz, so my friend and his gfriend were squeezed in together in the passenger seat. Actually, she was practically sitting on the floor and he was sitting pretty comfortably. Anyways... We were going wouth on the beltway when suddenly some kids in a red Mustang Cobra pull up next to me and start waving like crazy. At first my friends and i looked over to see if we knew them, but since they were white, that automatically told us that we had no idea who they were. (not to be racist, just don't know any white folks around here...) So i look over at the guy in the back seat who is sticking his face out the front window pointing forward... basically asking for a race. I roll down the window and give him an ok sign and we both slow down a little bit. At the time we were probably doing like 80~85 but we slowed down to about 60~65 to even out... Well his friend in the front passenger side puts his hand out the window and starts the countdown. 3.... 2.... 1.... Vroooom~ I was alread downshifted into third, so my car started pulling hard. The stang was right next to me and before we knew it we were doin about 115 in low traffic. We were weaving in and out in and out... left... sharp right... I starting pulling on him at about 125 on a straightaway with no traffic and then suddenly there's another group of cars ahead. I change lanes into the only available lane (the slow lane of course) but he tried to go to the fast lane. Since there were cars there, the freakin maniac floors it down the emergency lane! Anyways, we're still doin about 125~130 through traffic, which as you can imagine is a lot of weaving and maneuvering and suddenly we're in the clear again. We both slow down to look at each other again. The two guys who were smiling and having fun before are now sweating with anxiety. Once again the countdown begins... 3....

1... Off we go again (by this time I had already passed the xit that I was originally planning to get off at, but wtf, we were having fun) This time there wasn't much traffic at all and we were gunning it on a straight away. I pulled hard on him this time and at around 125+ he was in my rear view mirror. This didn't stop him from slowing down so I kept speeding up too! My friends' gfriend who is only 20, was cheering me on (whereas my friend who's 26 was constantly nagging me to be careful)... Anyways, we were going 140, then 160, then I don't know! We were probably accelerating for a good 5 minutes after the 160 mark (The speedometer on my car only goes to 160. But since i felt the pull, I imagine that we were going atleast 180. <-- is this possible? Anyways, I slow down after about five minutes and by this time I'm almost at the other side of the freakin beltway! Then suddenly as we were getting ready to get off we hear a vhrooo~ and the stang passes us and then slams on the brakes~ Slowly, I pulled up next to him as he was probably only going about 40 miles per hour, and then he screams out the window, "damn that thing is fast... whatdya got in there?" I was just humble and yelled back "It's stock!" hehe... Wonder if that killed his ego~ Either way, we were about 30 minutes late for a dinner appointment, but the fun was well worth it... p.s. I wrote this just so you know that Z's are killers too~ : Ok Im out my UCF going down the main drag by UCF, when I see a black surpa trun on ahead of me, so I speed up a little to see if its a NA or TT. The street had no lights on it, so I could only see his exhaust (greddy SP from the looks) and his plate "SUPR FST" So I figure its Turbo, so I cruise my, and he steps right up to bat, he got a least on other person with him and I got my tops off and Im alone, So he guns it, so do I he pulled, but only becasue I was not ready, but once I was spooled I was on his ass, then we come to a light, 3 lanes a car in each except the center, so he snakes in front of me, so here we are at the light the light turns green (Im behind him at the light) so I almost hit his ass, HE STALLS, a bad one too, (LOL It was great, got me laughing) so then he takes off once he restarts his motor LOL, and still is bogging down LOLagain, So we are off, and Im on him like glue, but at the top of every shift he pulled like about 2 feet, then we slow to about 40 and I get next to him and give the 3 honk go, and I was up by 2 car lenghts, and doing around 90, so I slow way down, (road is know for speed traps) then he pulls up next to me again and we go at in again for 40 and about the time to shift into 3rd the passager waves bye to me and that damn thing took off like a bat out of hell, I thought for a minute I missed my gear so something, but DAMN he smoked my ass, I hated to admint it to myself, the guy was a dick, didnt even smile or wave, so my turn was up so I took it, and that was the end for now. I want to know was he just f#cking with me the whole time, and just got on it and left my ass at the end, or did he have NOS and pushed the botton, what ever it was it was FAST I mean really fast. I will have to hunt him down when I get my goodies put in this fall. : So what do you think, was he just getting my hopes up and just burned my ass at the end, or do you think he used some NOS? : By the way, I only have intake and exhaust.
