Please don't flame me, I couldn't help it.

I am going home from a round of golf. I am on a ramp entering I94 and I check the rear view and I see this Mustang on my *** and I notice the square hood scoop on the hood. I say to myself, self this has to be a new Mustang GT (am I right?). So as I am entering the freeway I mash the loud pedal and hope for the best. The Stang pull's up to my quater panel. 80mph, I start to pull. 100mph and I have him by 1/2 length. 120 mph and I have him by (2) lengths. 125,130,140, 145 and I see him falling back. 150 and he gave up. Man the adrenalin is pumping. Here comes a turn with a bridge and I make it at 120. Man this thing really sticks. I slow down to 70 and pull over to the right lane. Here he comes again and pulls up along side and gives me the thumbs up. I return the sign and he speeds away and I notice the duel exhaust and I see he is on his cell phone. I hold a steady speed of 70 mph and I move over to the left lane. After awaile I start to pass a few cars and wouldn't you know it, one of them is the stang. He gives me the sign and we line up again (i think he was talking to someone on the phone that told him to try me again). He hits the hammer and jumps out to a 1/2 car length lead but the Z28 starts to unwind and here we go again. This time I really ream him a new ******* and when I slow down and he comes by he is not smiling.
I haven't had that much fun since I was in Germany running the Autobaun. :lala:

Cute story, but post it on the Street Racing board, there's nothing wrong with it other than it doesn't belong here.

You know I wondered where I should post it. Could you move it over for me as I don't have the slisted idea on how to do that. Thanks a bunch.

Probably, they do down here, use them strictly for pursuit. The computer shuts them off at 167, fudge the chip and who knows?

Well,ThraxXx I guess I thought that because of the speed I would recive some flack. I assure you it was a nice clear day with no traffic.

1986 Camarojoe that is an alum. home made air cleaner that holds a 14" x 3" K&N element. I had that made in 1985 when I put the 355 in and converted the Q-Jet to a 750 cfm. There's a Co. in Canada that makes one out of fiberglass that is very similer to mine. Try www.ramairbox.com .

cops in maryland have 4th gen f-bodys, mainly for patrol and pursuit i would imagine. its not really cool either, on a few seperate occasions i have seen cops in their ls1's get up along side some one and entice them to race by reving, jumping ahead and falling back. and it is pretty difficult to tell them apart from a normal fbody, they have tinted windows and no huge cb antenna. i once saw someone take the bait and it was a sad site, cop came up on and revved, no bite, jumped ahead and then fell back, no bite, then went to jump ahead again and the other guy took the bait and took off, the cop ran with him for a second and then hit the siren, im sure that guy was pissed off cause he just baught himself a 10 point ticket.

If you have a fast enough car, there's no need to stop!

I hope those cops know how to drive......

that should fall under the lines of entrapment

which is when the crime wouldn't have happened if the cop wasn't there

since the cop kept baiting him in an effort to get him to do something illegal I would think he coudl easily get off on the ticket

wont fly in most courts becuz they will say you shouldnt have done it if it wasnt a cop.

i was watching cops where they put a bike in the trunk of a car and staked it out..... it was a $2000 mercedes mountain bike.

grand theft. outa a planned sting

edit: the 4th gen pursuit camaros here are black and tan( FHP colors) and have full light bars, no mistaking them but it be funny to see a punk rev on him and catch a ticket thinking his car was faster that the camaro
