owned a stang

Well i was riding around a few nights ago and desided to hop on the interstate. right after i get on and get to about 65 i see these blue head lights fly up right behind me then shoot off to my left. turns out it is a v6 stang with flows. so i was like "ok let's go". we slow down to about 45- 50 and then as soon as he starts to hit the horn i drop to 2nd and get ready ( he was an automatic btw ) soon as i hear him floor it , i do the same and quickly get a nice car length on him , hit third then once i'm at about 4- 4500 rpm's in third i look back and he was about 3 car length's on him so i keep going and eventually shut it down aoubt half way through 4th gear. i know it was just a v6 but i have a n/a fb w/ a 12a so i was very happy with my 7. and besides a 7 is a 7 no matter what year.

Cool kill.

99-04 v6 stangs are rated at 190hp.
I'm not sure about the new ones, but it's over 200.

Yea, either way 200+ HP is pretty good for a V6 stang, seeing as how the V8s were barely making that in the 80s.
