Back in black! 96-98(?) Z28 bites the big one!
 
I LOVE my car!

I saw him ahead, classic race! white Z28 vs. Black Mustang! i caught up and got alongside. a couple of revs, and it was clear it was ON! i only dropped to 4th, and it took a bit to get to optimum rpms, but I caught and passed him!


the second time, we caught a light. I took him easily as I spun through first and second...

third time. got a light, but I was still rolling a little. caught first with some spin, not caring, I dumped 2nd! spun a little, hooked and took OFF!, by the top of third, i was 3 to 4 cars ahead!

I flashed my hedlights and he waved as we went our separate ways.

I put 3-4 tanks of gas through it before last night. I think its broken in pretty well. I hit a flat spot up top, not sure if it was the limiter or too much timing. going to back it down to 10* and work from there.

nice to show the chevy boys my taillights!
he had someone riding shotgun, couldn't tell if it was his girlfriend who watched his humilitation...

L8!
