Sorry to burst your bubble but youve run a best of 101mph. Yeah thats awesome for your car thats stock, but its hardly untouchable on the street.

That was with your ram air. So you werent running that, maybe 1mph there. That puts you at 100mph. You said you had your wife in the car too. Im sure shes a 100+ lbs that puts you at 99mph. Ive seen a lot of 5.0s with stock heads run better mph than that. Not to mention if he had a head of steam when he passed you. If the weather wasnt the greatest or you didnt shift a gear to the optimum rpm you could easily be around the equivalent of 97.5-98mph. Hardly untouchable by a Rusty old 5.0. So don't act so shocked.
