Well as the title states its not really a fair race but what the heck. I am driving to the store this morning in the new GT and as a approach a stoplight I can see an old Fox GT a few cars back. We're all in the lane to turn left and proceed up this steep hill and as soon as light turns green he speeds through the traffic to catch up to me. I dont care to race typically but the two teenagers in the Fox were grinning from ear to ear looking at my 13' so I figured id humor them. Once we got through the roundabout just before the steep incline he stays right next to me for a few seconds (slow traffic in front of me) and all of a sudden hes off motor roaring and black smoke pouring. I quickly change lanes and roll into the throttle in third. I short shifted into fourth and "freight trained" him, no where near pushing my car hard. I let out on the throttle right after shooting by him and he pulls back up alongside me, both he and the passenger still all smiles. We exchange thumbs up and part ways. I know its not a real race or anything and by no means am I bragging about beating a 20 year old car. I own a 93' 5.0 LX myself and they are fun little cars, but figured Id share my little fun run today for sh*** and giggles. :banana:
