Smile Beat a Fairly new F-150

I live on cape cod, MA and there isn't a Taco Bell there so we went to get some off cape. I was just leaving there when I passed a nice looking F-150(hate to say it) with a bunch of kids in it. It was me and 2 of my friends in my little regular cab SB. he followed me until the next light and pulled up beside me. He reved a little and I gave it back. Sounded like he had an exaust. I over anticipated the light and took of like a moron. So I waited for him to come up. Its a 2 lane road that goes on for a while. I let him get a fender length past me and i mashed it. next thing i kew i was at the arrestible over double the speed limit and i slowed down for him. i blew him away by at least 6 lengths about 3 times and let him do his flyby. I was really supprised by how much i beat him and so was my ford guy friend that was with me.

Maybe you should do some more homework on L's before stating "facts". There's much more there than just a S/C. Welcome to the site.
