Nice Suprise I was on lunch break just cruising back form getting some gas so I dont have to stop after work.All of a sudden I hear a big chhhhh sound and along side me. I see a tt stealth thinking nothing of it I didn't down shift just slowly pressed the gas pedal in fourth and he pounds it and jumps out a car or two.
So I decided okay lets play. So I jump onto the freeway and set up the spray we go from about 60 in second kinda close to the end but will give me a nice little jump before I have to slam third. Three honks and were off, suprisingly I look over after getting into third and he was right next to me and keeping up with me pretty well shift fourth and slowly start to inch away.
I shut it down at about 130 with him being at my bumper. Gave him a thumbsup and got off the freeway to make it back to work before I was late.

i have to say, that your rearend is about to take a **** 
start saving penny;s and driving soft, cause you need to get on the 12 bolt fund. one nice hard launch will put that rear end out of its misery...
and nice kill man

I'm no expert but it sounds like your gears may have shifted in some way. The 4.10s in my twelve bolt whine like a **** because they weren't set exactly perfect. It doesn't affect anything with my car but you might wanna get that checked out since its the stock gears.
