I had a 67 Satellite with a 383, 2.93 rear end, that I stupidly sold, in 96. Right around the same year the new Mustang Cobras came out.
I had the 383 built, dyno'ed 475 hp. I was cruising home from work one day, staight freeway, Mustang Cobra pulled up next to me, some teenager driving, reved his motor a few times and took off.
OK, no traffic, i gave it the gas too. I read somewhere they had a rev limiter set at 130MPH.
So we are blowing down the road, my spedometer is pegged but i still have half my pedal left. I hear his engine cut out a bit and he falls back, i slow down a bit and he comes back up. I do this a few times, untill i get tired of it.
I fall back to make him feel special, and just nail the pedal, and see him getting smaller in the distance.
That Mustand didnt have any plates on it, either a dealer demo with a saleman taking it home or a brand new purchase, bet he took it back the next day.
