I was driving to a friends house in my GT at about 4:00 pm yesterday afternoon and a couple of blocks away from my house i stop at a light with a krauted out White Volkwagen Golf, i'm absolutely sure it was a non-turbo. Anyways, i look over to the passanger and the driver and say, "wanna go?" and rev a few times. Then the driver asks, "is that a 5.0?"....i just nodded my head, and then he said, "my engine is not even half your size" so i said, "it's just fun!". They both smiled and waited for the light to turn green revving their engine. The light turned green and the golf dumped the clutch. I eased onto the gas trying not to spin, but that didn't happen. I spun the tires up to about 5500rpm going maybe 25 or 30 and shifted into second and still spinning. The tires start to grab at about 45mph by then i'm about 2 car lengths ahead and i pulled hard up to about 60 where i let off. I slowed down beause of traffic ahead and the golf drove by and gave me a thumbs up. They were good sports, and a fun (if not very competitive) race. That was one of the funner races i've had just because the guys in the other car were actually pretty cool.
