Funny, you say that, I am actually taking it to the shop today. but yeah I think it's long over due, I was starting to hate driving my car but I'll be back with a vengence! I'll be hoping to get around 190whp If I am lucky.

The bastard starts taunting me by getting on and off his gas. So I said to myself, "ah to hell with it"...then pumped the gas pedal twice to let him know I was ready. We cruised at 80mph for another 3-4 seconds then I hear him downshift. This time around I let this stang have it. I rev matched it and dumped it to 3rd. Since he gunned it first he was ahead of me by just about 1/2 a car length. Then I shifted from 3rd - 4th, and by the end of 4th gear I had about 2 car lengths on him. Shifted to 5th and let off at 120mph then slowed back down to 80mph. The mustang pulled up next to me and gave me a sign and got off at the next exit.

YAY for me!! I redeemed myself

If that was a 97 or so GT how different would this outcome be?
Nice job.. Be CAREFUL going from 3rd to 4th when that rush of adrenaline is going through your vains!! could cost u some serious money..

True dat. A 3rd to 2nd shift would suck major monkey balls.
