Default h/c ws6 vs 462cid 1980 trans am

i met a guy at the local hangout last saturday and he told me he was looking to race someone with his newly stroke 400 trans am. i said lets go. we race 4 times. the 1st race i counted and ended up beating him bad so on the next run i told him ill give him the jump, well i did and when i hit it, i just melted my street tires through 1st and 2nd then missed 3rd so he got me that run. the 3rd & 4th run were about the same, we would both spin in 1st and then i would start to pull him in every gear by the top of 4th i had more than a few cars on him. he said his best was a 12.0@115. his mods were a 400 stroked to a 462, 15x casting heads, 9:1 compression, custom solid tappet cam 245@50, 750 holley DP, headers, muncie 4 spd, 4:10s, 3700lb car w/ him.

last night i took him for a ride in my car. he couldnt believe how fast a little 346 could be. he told me after we raced the other night, him and his friends were thinking i was on the juice. i told him i was all motor. it is nice being accused of being on nitrous though when you know your not.
