I know the feeling. I hated Escort Gt's. Back in the late 80's, these cars were still newish but had been around long enough for stock Vette's, F-bodies and 5.0's to know better, I could pull up to a light with either of them and we would leave all civilized like. When ever I would end up next to an Escort Gt the driver would rev and pump the clutch. The light would change and they would try to leave hard. This usually made me irritated enough that I would play catch up and by mid second gear it was over.

Escort Gt's, the first American Rice.
