Default very small run in with new vette!!!!

cruising home last night on i-45 out of galveston ran into a nice looking new vette with my mach.played around with him a little while through traffic but neither of us went to fast because of traffic and triing to be careful.

anyway there was one small stretch of road were there was no traffic and i was sitting at about 3500rpm in 3rd gear and we hit it.i was initially ahead and it stayed that way but the run was very short,maybe 60 to 85 or so before more traffic came up.

not saying i would have one but for that short distance he didnt pull on me.might have gotten ugly with a little more speed

I'm all over the Houston area, I have not raced a Mach1 yet but I sure have been looking. I put a lid on recently, K&N. Other than that It's stock , but not for long so you better find me fast. I'm sure I'll take you.

silvershark.....lets line them up!!where do you want to meet this weekend?

i am sure it would be easy enough to put the stock box back on there to get a true stock to stock run.

friendly race of course.
