Some fellow in a white LT1 Camaro convertible drove up beside me on a relatively empty freeway (the 280 near San Francisco), and then gunned it. My wife, who disapproves of racing, was with me.

Throwing caution and marital sensibilities to the wind, I downshifted to 4th and pulled ahead about 2-3 cars in a jiffy. After I hit about 80mph, I slowed back down. No need to break the sound barrier and my own neck to prove a point.

He was a good sport. He caught up and smiled and nodded, and I smiled back. My wife was cool, too; she congratulated me on beating a Camaro. I didn't think she could recognize one, maybe it's written on the bumper.

65 Coupe
351W->427 stroker
3.08 gears, T56
