Default S2000 vs cocky mustang

I don't mind mustangs. It's mustang owners that bother me sometimes. I'm cruising on the strip and this guy pulls up next to me with his "5.0". Yay. These cars are slower than the new GT's. We all know this. Again, I know the chances are slim that he's modded, since many cars stay fairly stock around here. At the light, he's next to me and yells out "hey.... you blew all that money on your car, now you wanna maybe use it?" I said "you wanna race?" He's like "yeah... you spent that money, now have some fun". I'm like... ok. Then he says half under his breath "dumb honda owners". So him and his 3 friends are laughing. So I figure I'll drop and really destroy him. Which I did. I'd say 3-4 lengths easy by end of 3rd. Just another disgrace to the mustang owners out there. Some are really cool, and then some guy like this goes and ruins it for them.

now you've gotta wonder... was he like the dude in that video, and saying to his friends "It was basically even" after the race?

Before you blew him away, you should have said something like, "Use it...on you? I'm not into picking up guys!"

Pardon my ignorance . . help me out here. What do you mean by "drop"? I read this a lot in posts. Drop the clutch? Please explain the procedure so that I may do it. Thanks
