Talking Racing a SuperCharged Trans Am this weekend!!!

Well there is this guy that is always at our hangout with a LT1 SuperCharged Trans Am that is always putting down Fords. Him and his Dad built this car it's kinda both of thiers. I know the guy and talk to him pretty regular. Well he just got his car back together after blowing it up. He is wanting to run me. I told him I would because I have nothing to lose. I have very few mods (see sig) he has tons. Let me tell you what he has done to this car that I know of. First he has a Vortech SuperCharger with 8lbs of boost, FORD 9in with like 3.73's, intake work, ported and polished heads, a cam, bored to a 355, suspension work, and he is running on drag radials. Well anyways he ran another friend of mine that has an LS1 Z28 that runs about a full second slower than my car in the quarter. He only beat the Z by about 1-1/2 car lengths. Well we had already agreed to race each other before he raced the Z, but this just boosted my convidence. When we orginally set it up I didn't think I would be able to beat him, but I believe I can. I think I'm alot better driver than him. He is a high school kid that his Dad has built this car to make him think he is the man because he was getting beat up by everything when he was stock (before I had my Cobra). Well anyways we are running this weekend, and I will let you know how it turns out. Do you guys think I am nuts. I really think I can beat this guy or give him a run for his money!!!!
Let me know what ya'll think!!!

ps: we are racing on the street
