HiFlow5 0 · 08-02-2001, 02:19 PM

my buddy and i were driving down 495 on the way to NH yesterday, when i looked in the rearview and saw a new tricked out firebird coming up. when he got next to me he guns it, so i down shift to 2nd and floor it. we run for a few then have to let off cause of traffic, but we were pretty even when we slowed down. he had pillar gauges, a huge ram air hood and a big wing, don't know what else he had, but it was quiet. The guy looked at me smiling, and gave me the thumbs up. We then were swapping the lead for the next 10 or so miles, it was great! y can't more people be like him? It was very enjoyable just cruising with him even though it was a chevy!

Better hope you don't run into one of the new Trans-Ams. They've got some serious power going on under the hood

When are you gonna run that stang and find out what it will do in a 1/4 mile? I'm building a "new" car now and will come looking for you when she is finished. I sold my '88 GT with a Vortech S-Trim to finance my "new" car. I'll be looking for you soon HiFlow50!

IT is always nice to run into someone cool like that. I do to wish there where more ppl out there that could race and be cool about it and just have fun and not be a dick.
