Was cruising around the city this afternoon, come up on a set of lights and a newer 2010+ Camaro SS in in the pole position with me right behind. I see him look in the rear view and know its on...
he gives her a little bit off the light and I wind it out through 1st and come up beside him in the next lane over I'm now in the sweet spot of second about 3000RPM. 3 honks we off and I'm edging on him by about half a car throw into 3rd and pull a bit more on him say about a full car. I think we were up about 95-100 mph at that point. I left off as the fast approaching lights are turning red. This is perfect as I want to see what his car can do from a dig and also see if I can start off without spinning to much. His car was an auto with exhaust, some kind of tune and CAI.... We had a short minute to talk through open windows, he never asked what the whine under my hood was:lol1: He told me that my car was very surprising yada yada... Off the green I'm careful not to spin but it all happened so fast and ended up spinning into second and we were even. After finally hooking at the top of second, maybe me out on him by a half a car I'm into 3rd and I'm pulling away at that point, as soon as we come up over a small hill I see cherrys everywhere and shut it down (there was an accident other side of freeway). We trade thumbs up and go on our way. good races, me winning both:banana:. I like racing guys with American cars they know what the hell is up. unlike most, but not all import drivers....
