Cool Ran in with a Roush supercharged F150

I went to Starbucks, and in the parking lot was a new F150 "Nascar Edition" but as I looked closer it had the head scoup that said Roush racing supercharged it also had dealerplates from down the road a mile or so. So there was only 1 other person in front of me in the place. So I asked the guy if that was his truck. He of course said yes then I just asked him if he wanted to run it against mine (He turned out to be the owner of the dealership). He looked at me and smiled. We both got our drinks at the same time and walked out together. He asked me what my truck had in it and I said a 5.3 with some work done to it. So we both pulled on the interstate and he was a truck length ahead of me. He punched it and I followed. 60-70-80-90 came and I made up the distance that he was ahead of me and now im on his ***. Then we slowed down do to traffic. But if I was next to him I am sure that I would have slowly pulled away.

Was he retarded? How do you race somebody and take off while they are still a length behind? Did he ever let you get even with him and do the 3 honks? If you made up the length by 90 I imagine you would have owned him from an even start.

Thats what kills the Fords is how heavy they are. Their engine is nice but even with the 3 valve heads they still dont flow that well. Good kill.
