LS1 Z28--Nowhere to hide!!!

exgmguy · 10-19-2001, 09:14 AM

This is good. I just bought a house and have kept my car dormant in the garage, tweakin' and tunin'. There are a few car guys on my street, and one red Z28 in particular that likes to rev his motor up while driving by.

So I take my car out for a ride yesterday after work and who is driving by as I am backing out of my driveway? Mr. Z28, revving his welded in Flowmaster to the moon. I follow him out of the subdivision and through traffic. He is weaving in and out of traffic a lot and I get stuck at a light while he goes through it.

He gets stuck at the light a block ahead as I wait for what seemed to be an eternity for my light to change. It goes green and I take off after him. I pull up to the light right next to him. Sitting duck!!!

Now he lurches his car forward a couple times and starts creeping as the opposing light goes yellow. He jumps the light early and I go a car or so after him, Perfoming a nice ET Street launch. By the 1-2 shift it seems as I was catipulted next to him, and I kept pulling like crazy. By the middle of 3rd I could actually see him behind me in my rear view!!!
By this time there seemed to be a football field between us, so I coasted back to the speed limit where of course, he would not drive next to me in traffic. I wonder if while I am out wrenching he will throw another rev as he drives by???!!!!

He was a young guy. Probably 19-22 or so. I am 27, but I still consider myself a young whipper-snapper too.

I have not seen him down the street yet.

Who knows, maybe after the race he headed straight to a Ford dealership to trade up.

Crazy Horse GT · 10-20-2001, 08:15 PM

or he drove it to the scrap metal yard to collect the best junk metal price. hehe , hey c- guy & bad 89 im just kidding.

Well I would think you could beat just about any camaro you run across with times like that.

BULLY

j/k

nice kills and damn fast car

exgmguy · 10-22-2001, 01:22 PM

Well he could not have been too bright. One of the first things I look at from a dead dig are my opponents tires. And he wanted to run a lumpy sounding ET streeted' Mustang from the hole???

CAMARO GUY · 10-22-2001, 06:12 PM

quackenbush · 10-23-2001, 10:32 PM

He also might not of wanted a full out race and just quit because he didnt want a ticket for racing on the street. z28's are ******* fast and most guys I know have em modded. Confucious say "man who pats himself on back too much, starts patting his monkey too." I think stangs look better, I dont care who's faster, 260 HP out my stock 01 GT is enough oomph for me.
