Was out cruising in my '68 Barracuda and had just noticed a shiny black Mustang GT in my rearview. I think it was an older Mustang maybe an '03. It had non-standard fat tires/rims and appeared to have a modified suspension. My Barracuda has a nicely built 360, bored .040 over. Has had some moderate head work done, MSD ignition, NOS sniper system, 12 gallon fuel cell & a lot of other crap that cost a lot of money, You guys know the deal. I'm not out looking for a race as I've been burned in the past for street drag racing & I'm still missing a cheek!! BUT this idiot rolls up behind me on the interstate acceleration ramp and gets so close behind me that I can't even see his head lights. Now I HATE tailgaters. This guys starts to veer side to side just itching to get around. Sooo as I roll up on the 3 lane interstate, I get in the far left lane to give this idiot plenty of room. When he rolls up next to me, I dropped it in 2nd
and nailed it up to about 110 (all throttle, no bottle). I looked back and he was about 3 car lengths back. He pulled back in the right lane and didn't even do a fly-by. I would have kinda enjoyed it, but I just chuckled as he got a nice view of my tail lights!! So the fish ate a pony & it was yummy!!!
