[QUOTE="415ZR1, post: 5798633, member: 38319"] I have been a member on this forum for awhile but mostly lurk. Just got my ZR-1 back on the road and had just taken it out for a Friday afternoon cruise. The weather down here in Ft Lauderdale has been real nice. I was driving west bound on 595 when I noticed a white with blue stripes Ford GT about a quarter of a mile behind me in the left lane. The exit for 75 south is a left hand exit so I slow down and get in the left lane. I exit off onto south bound 75 and slow down to 75 mph. I am in the left lane when the Ford GT starts to pull along side at about 75. I drop it to third and hit it for a third gear to fourth gear jump just to let him know I want to play. I guess he is game becasue he comes up along side of me and we take off at about 80. I am still in fourth gear ( I should have been in third but wasn't sure if he was going to take off) and we are even until I get above 100 when I pull on him just a little. He has to shut down. I pass some traffic and get into the middle lane with nothing in front of us. He is in the left lane and we are pacing at about 90. I am still in fourth when we hit it. This time I am in the sweet spot of 4th gear (4:09 rear gear) and pull him pretty good to about 138 (top of my fourth gear) when he shuts down with me in the lead by 2 or 3 cars. I am sure he didn't expect an old C4 to be that fast. :) We both exit on Pines and pull alond side of each other and have a quick chat. He was totally stock, no pulley. Pretty cool dude. I bet he is on the net buying a pulley for his GT today. After that I am sure he would smoke me. Just wanted to share because you don't run into these cars on the road every day and to get some clean runs with this car is pretty exciting. This is the best kill section I know of so I thought I would tell the story here. Those GT's are pretty fast for stock cars as my ZR-1 is nowhere near stock so I thought he did pretty good against me. You cannot beat the styling of those cars, they look great. [/QUOTE]
