H/C LT1 bullies Mazdaspeed6

I went to go check and adjust the tire pressure in the bird because I know it looked a little low. As I was ready to pull out of the gas station, I notice a Mazdaspeed6 behind me. We toy around for a little bit on Easton Ave (45mph road) and he looked to be going on the highway in the opposite direction I need to go. I say "screw it" and decide to follow him onto the highway to see if he really wants to play. We finally get lined up and I let him know I'm game by downshifting to third. He downshifts and I let him get the jump....and from there it was see you laterrrr. I was probably 5-6 cars out by the time I hit 110ish. I could have downshifted to second to start the race but I figured no need to rev the **** out of the motor for racing a stock car. He gave me a thumbs up, as did I and I took the next exit to spin back around.

Nothing spectacular or exciting but I haven't caught a race in a while and with the weather getting colder, I will be driving the car less.

Cliffnotes: I follow a Mazdaspeed6 onto the highway and proceed to murder it.

He was probably hoping for a close run with a stock "heavy" convertible LT1 that trapped maybe 98 mph
