Default SRT8 challenger vs. 99 z28

driving down 59 last wednesday night jsut cruizing with t tops off and i pass a new SRT*8 challenger all blacked out, i give him a small rev as i go by, im not really looking for a race because my girl friend was with me and does not enjoy high way races but i wanted to acknowledge a nice car. i keep my eye on him though and see him start too pull up by me and about the time he get within a car and a half of my rear bumped right where i cant see him he smashes into it. i did not respond because i thought he was just tring to get my attention. when he gets about two cars ahed a realize he is not gonna let out so i drop tp forth at about eighty by the end of forth i caught and pulled a nose on him. we slow back down a cruz for a minute then he starts to do the same thing but im all riled up this time and had just left my car in forth from the previous race i punch it when he gets even with me an pull about four cars on him by the end of forth. i exit after this and we both give each other a wave.

challengers mods unknown, prossibly exhaust

Z28 mods lid, rumbler catback, and diablosport predator

So you pulled an SRT8 in 4th gear at 80mph by 4 lengths with a lid and catback

.....Good kill

yeah i know its a little slow for forth but sometimes my car is finiky getting into third so i didnt see any sense in making a slow down shift only to shirft right into forth at 90ish.

and why would i lie i have nothing to prove to anyone just posted this so people had something to do to make the day go by a little faster

I swear, this section is full of people chomping at the bit to throw the BS flag and insult someone posting a kill story. There are so many more facts that are left out and can create a great variation in what is presented. Just because it didn't turn out the way someone else THOUGHT it should based on the limited facts given, here come the BS flags and insults. For all we know the SRT8 could have been weighted down with luggage, the gas levels will make a big difference, SRT8 could have been a manual and started in too high of a gear, the OP could be hiding mods that he doesn't want known, etc etc etc.

Good kill OP. I bet it was fun to run one probably an even better feeling knowing the outcome.
