Default Ford GT40! Kill...

Found myself sitting at a light next to a Red Ford GT40 on the way back from the car show and dinner. (long open road with no one in sight)

Light changed colors and I jumped on the gas hoping he would follow. He let me get about 6 car lenths out before he decided to show off. That thing was impressivly fast, even watching him close the gap in the rear view mirror was impressive.

He came up along side and hung out for a second or two and then shut it down to make the next turn. He never actually overtook me so I guess technically I win right;-)?

You mean the Ford GT, right? The '60s GT40 wasn't street legal.

Default Yes, the new "GT"!

I find that most people don't know what the "GT" is. They start asking questions like "mustang GT?", "Probe GT?", etc! So "GT40" while not totally correct seems to fit better.
