Tonight I was hanging out at this girls house. A few people were over, and I hear the doorbell ring. Out of nowhere, this guy I havent seen in 2 years just showed up cause I guess he knew this girl too. Well, we got to talking and it turns out he just got a 99 Corvette Hardtop with an Automatic. I asked if we could go for a ride and he said yes, so we ditched the girl
and got into the vette. It's been at least since 98 that I'd been in ANY car with an LS1, and I must say, I really had forgotten what 350 horses feels like. Made me realize just how far I'm still away from that kind of performance in my GT. Thing handles like a dream, stops on a dime, and accelerates like crazy. You really feel like you're in a Badass ride.
I told him what I'd already done to the GT, and that I had Gears, MAF, T.B, and chip about to be installed, but he didnt seem to be too concerned that my GT may threaten his ride. Do you think when we run, and it's inevitablaley going to happen, that I will be even able to hang with him with my upcoming mods put in. His car is bone stock down to the filter, and he has no plans to mod his engine: he just wants rims, soundsystem, etc. The people I was with were basically worshipping the Vette, and paid NO attention to my stang.
It would be awesome to have them follow us out, and then watch as I show it my taillights...Is it just a pipedream?
BTW, I also have upper and lower control arms on the way.
