Well a guy walks into my work the other day, and says, hey, you Skyler? I said yeah, he says, well wanna race? So I go out check out his car.

71 El Camino. This sound sounds reallll good. 400SB, 11:1, World heads, healthy sounding cam, vic jr intake, and a 830 carb, w/ exhaust etc. Got a 3.73 geared LSD rear end and 295 tires.

He wants to race me because he says hes raced all the other fast cars in town but to be the fastest hes gotta be me. So I said sure.

Now I know of a few of the other cars hes raced and I know his car runs real hard, but I dont think I'll have a problem taking it on motor with slicks.

Should I spray him though just for fun? Ill see how much $ he wants to put up, if its worth filling the bottle over.

I was almost thinkin about racin him on street tires, cuz I hate havin to put the slicks on, but I dont wanna loose to him or hed be jumpin through his roof.

I might get surprized and it might run harder than I expect, cuz it sounds reall good, but I dont expect it to hook too well bein an elky.
