Message I've been hesitatnt to post this, but it keeps ringing to mind. Coming back from Z1 yesterday, somewhere about an hour south of Macon on I75 I was tooling along around 80MPH and I see in my rear view a white convertible Mustang 4.6L and a plymouth prowler. The highway was 6 lane at this point and I was in the middle lane. No traffic for ~1/4 mile ahead and behind. The mustang was on the left and prowler on the right and they were coming up pretty quick. They apparently got on the gas about 3-400 feet behind me and as they passed me I couldn't resist. Clutch, 4th gear, booooooooooooooostt. They were on it WOT and quickly got about 300 feet on me by the time I was powering in 4th gear. At the top of 4th gear I was reeling them in quick and they were still on it as they saw me getting into the game. I grabbed 5th gear and in a few more seconds I caught them and blew right past going about 145. After shamelessly reeling them in and passing them I let off and began braking. They quickly caught up and came up to the side of the car. I look over to my right at the prowler and the dude has a big thumbs up and I look to my left and the passenger was nothing but impressed. =) He said slowly so I could see what he was saying and the words "That shit is fast!" brought a good ear-to ear smile to my face.


My new word for my Z is "Stupid". The car is stupidfast, makes stupid power, and kills stupid mustangs. =)
