Earlier today I was out cruising, and spotted a Green 99-01 Cobra. It had an exhaust but looked stock other than that. Had temp dealer tags on it so I'm assuming he just bought it. I rolled up next to him and he looked like he wanted to play. The road we were on turns into a 6 lane highway so we slow down a bit and let all the traffic clear in front.

I honk off the first race and instantly pull away and put about 4-5 lengths on him. I shut down and he pulls up next to me again with a huge smile on his face. I told him to go whenever he wanted, so he took off but put no more than a bumper on me. I stopped his pull pretty quickly and put 4-5 cars on him again. The first thing he asked me was, if I'm supercharged. The second thing he asked was if I had an LS1 which I replied yes with a big smile. We exchanged thumbs up and went on our way, it was fun.

Then, as the Cobra was still behind me, an all black LS1 Trans am pulled up next to us. It had an exhaust and sounded good. It also looked mean and he was eager to race. The first race he went first and I was at his door. we were dead locked. Then around 70 or so I started slowly inching up on him. I pull even with him and about this time I see a car in his lane so I shut down. We line up again for a second race. I honk it off and this time I get the jump. I jump out about 1/2 a car and then proceed to pull out 1 1/2 cars in front of him before we shut down.

Both guys were really cool and we had fun. Its nice to finally see my mods paying off. I haven't had the chance to go to a 1/4 mile track since I was stock so this is the first time Ive been about to see how shes responding up top.

BTW I have a 99 LS1 with Lid, LS6 Intake Manifold, Hooker Long Tubes & OR Y-pipe, Magnaflow exhaust and a few other minor mods.

 

sounds really exciting =)

your mods really are starting to pay off, glad you had fun

STREET RACING IS BAD MKAY?!

 

he doesn't let me play, I have to stay in the kitchen

 

ummmm no its okay. I forgot to tell you guys the first part of the story because, this mourning I drove to Mexico to race...

I usually agree but I'm always up for a good race, especially when its some good old boys in some American muscle cars. The conditions were right, if there were is too much traffic or in a bad spot I do not race.

 

Nice races! Glad they were good sports about it.

 

Lindy does play, she went to the track with me and raced before. Note her Avatar, that's her driving.



...But that's only if the kitchen is clean. lol, jk =)



Yeah, me too. Both seemed like cool guys and were really good sports. The guy in the trans am even made a bowing motions towards my car after the race, lol.
