Default had fun with a new gto today

i was comming back from just picking up my pin on hood from the paint shop after driving there hoodless and was just cruising along when i came up on a new gto, i waved and so did he as i eased on by. well we get a lil farther out of town to the open hwy and all of a sudden here he comes, lol. i messed with him a lil bit but i think he knew he had no chance in the beginning and surely after i droped it a few gears and lunged forward for a sec. looks like theres alot more ls1's around here than i thought

i race with the lightweight carpet and drag seats in the car usually, car always has all the pannels, dash and stuff. so all i do is bolt up the catback and change the tires to drive it. its to hot to race to ive been driving it for the past few weeks, breaking in the new gears and just enjoying cruising around.

I hear that, still gotta be hot driving w/o a/c!! I would drop 10 lbs of water in an hour with this weather we have now, especially on the leather seats..

Nice. Was the GTO stock appearing, or was it modified?

Honestly, when I'm in the camaro, I don't try to **** around with other f-bods or GTO's. I don't see the point on beating up on brothers and sisters.

I raced one a while ago. I killed him out the whole for a good 1/4 mile. After that he was gone. I could not catch him. Too much gear and not enough hP.
