Default First Kill: 3000GT

This isn't the greatest kill, but it is my first.

Being from out in the country, I don't get too many chances and driving to and from work offers nothing but traffic. Two nights ago I was pulling out of this small town on a two lane road. There was a pickup, a 3000GT and me in that order. The road we were on had a few sweeping curves on it and then a passing zone. We came out of the curve leading to the passing zone and I drooped to 3rd at around 5700. I could have gone to second, but I figured third would be good enough. As we hit the passing zone the 3000GT nailed it and pulled out on the pickup. I pulled out behind him and was maybe a car and a half behind him. I was close to 80 by the time I passed the pickup and I was right on the 3000GT's bumper. He pulled over while still trying to outrun me. I stayed out there and was by him by almost a car length by th time I hit fourth and walked away from him. I had to drop back to 80 then to make it through a curve.

The rest of the trip, he never closed to less than 5 car lengths, even though I was only cruising. It was a fun little diversion
