Default Just raced a red GTO with M plate!!!!

Driving to the fiance's house, see this newish car on the highway flying down the road that looked like an IS300 from behind, so i fly up on it and sure enough a pontiac sign in the center! I about **** my pants, plate was 79M291 or something like that.
I drive up next to him after he's acting all bad in the car, and it's some old dude, 50-60ish, i look back over and his is all thinking i'm digging his fugly car. Little does he know I want to own his *** on the highway.
Anyhoo, lanes opened up and I dropped it to 4th and he punched it too he got the jump, stayed with him, followed him a bit, rolling 85, and the car in front of him moves, me being prepared dropped to 4th right before he could get the drop on me, and punch it. I gained on him, damn that GTO moves, those who say it's slow have another thing coming; Anyhoo, flying up behind him, he screeched his wheels, like a wheel lock(no brake light tho ), i slam on the brakes and i am like :wtf: he then slows and pulls over to an exit really fast looking at gauges or something, i think he downshifted to a wrong gear and pegged the rev limiter :slap: . old dude who can't drive seems to maybe have bent some pushrods??

Anyhoo, that's my story, they are fast, and look odd.
fun night :thumbup:

Nice story although IMHO I think they look pretty nice.(I haven't seen one in person though) What's going on over at LS1.com? I can't get on that site from this computer for some reason.

Did one of those idiots say the GTO had an LS6 in it? A couple of other dumb comments, those guys are sooo stupid.

LS1.com is an f'ing joke... but ls1tech is probably the best forum I've ever posted on... hence all my posts in only 3 months.

I love the new GTO... I can't wait for the Judge, 421 horsepower LS1 (not LS6), it should be pretty freaking awesome. I love the way they look- true sleeper.

Rumors are the SLP Judge will have a 421 hp LS1. It's almost definite that SLP will make a Judge version, as they've just bought the copyright for the name and the slogan...
