Got My First Kill Today!

*A guy in a late model Camaro made a U turn in front of me today and when he hit 2nd chirped his tires. I followed him on the freeway about a block away and pulled up next to him while I was still in 3rd at about 4000 rpm. He looked over and punched it and so did I. I pulled on him right away and when I hit 4th he was really getting out distanced. At the next off ramp I had to exit and he did too. We were side by side at the next stop light and I looked over. The guy was looking straight ahead but his girlfriend was giving me a big smile. Made this old fart feel young again.

* I do not condone street racing but sometimes you must exercise your car!

Rebel, Don't know the modern stuff, but an original Z28m was a high revving 302. Quite a Motor at the time. An LT1 was a small block vette motor from 71-72 vintage, and I believe an LS1 was a 454 from about 1973-74 vintage.

LT1 he is talking about came out in 1992.
LS1 came out in 1997.
'69 Z-28 ain't as good as my car.

gotta love the first kill! and the fact that she was smiling must have been the icing on the cake.

my first kill was a cobalt SS supercharged. kid was racing everything that pulled next to him at a light, wether it was an old woman in a buick or some ricer. so ofcorse i had to put him in his place. got next to him at a light after some weaving in and out of traffic and reved it big time. he had limo tint so all i heard was his rev and i knew it was time. my start was TERRIBLE so he prob figured he had me but when i hit 2nd, blew right past him and he couldnt even touch me.

i had to turn off onto my street so when i got into the turning lane, he put his window down and actually flipped me off ahahahahahah
