I use to have a 69 GTO with a 400 HO. The car was not the fastest thing in the world, but it was quick and it sounded like it. I was cruising around one night and I pulled up next to a Dodge Caravan. The man inside, about 45 or 50, looked over and pointed ahead. The whole family was with him and the wife was hiding her face. He reved the Caravan and waitied for the green. When it turned, he chirped the tires and I abliged. I figured that he wanted to see the car go, so I gave him that opportunity.

Also, when I had the SS I had a guy in a Ryder truck rev at me. We were in some traffic though so I never got a chance to take off.

Haha... wow... that is awesome... I think that that is at least one thing I am faster than, but maybe not.

In traffic if I slow down to about 40 I can light the rears while moving but the rear starts to get out from under me if I do it
