Back in the saddle again!!!

I put my engine back together and headed out to Gratiot to catch a few runs.
The first was a stock looking black LT1 Z28. We went from a mid 2nd gear roll, and by the time I shifted into 3rd he was visible in my rearview. I kept in it till the top of 3rd and had many carlenghths. He said at the next light that he runs high 13's.
The second race was a red Fox GT. It had a nice lumpy idle, but also had 2 passengers. I let him have the jump then skated by about the same as the Z28.
Then comes the good race. It was a sweet black LT1 SS that had "FORCFED" for a plate, along with a cage (I think?..) and an Autometer catalog of gauges. He had a very nice audible whine.
We cruise next to each other for a mile or so to let traffic clear, hsssss says the bottle as it opens, then hit it from my 2nd gear. We are pretty much next to each other with me edging slightly. Shiftlight-bang 3rd and I keep inching ahead till the top of 3rd where we both let off. I had about a car on him.

My plate reads 12SECGT and said something like yeah right 12 seconds! What 12 seconds flat? I said yeah, 12 flat on street tires. We chatted at the next light for a second then I came home.
