A few blocks over, there resides an orange Mach 1 Mustang. I’m not sure of the mods, but I do know that he at least has exhaust and a 5-speed.
I pull my GN into the driveway to work on it, and quite a bit of traffic passes my way. Because of this, I tend to see the same cars frequently. The orange Mach 1 is one of them. He has (or should I say, used to have) the habit of slowing down and revving at me as he passed. More often that not, I was right in the middle of something and just kept on working.
Not this time. I had just started the GN and got out to check the tire pressure. Here comes the Mach 1 and the revs started. This time would be different. I pulled out and was able to quickly catch him at the next light, but it was one lane so nothing there. He took off with a little wheel spin, but I just hung back.
I tried to get next to him for a while, but he was trying to stay in front of me. Ahead was the entrance to the interstate. He took the entrance, and I gave chase.
At the end of the on ramp, at about 35 mph, I heard him downshift and prepare to take off. I pulled it down into second, but did not build any boost. When I heard his exhaust scream, I hit it too. I then almost immediately hit him. I quickly changed lanes, got back on the gas and put about 5 cars on him. By this time, we were approaching the next exit. This has been only about ¼ mile. He took the exit, and I haven’t seen him or the car since. Maybe he sold it.
