I feel you man.. Few hours ago I was driving to work, and I see this Mach1, all blacked out, picking on an lt1 camaro. Seemed to have borla catback, judging from the tips, dont know what else. The mach1 at least had exhaust, from the sound. anyway, guy in the camaro wasnt really interested, and I was ready to pounce on the mustang, and back up my f body friend, when I realized I was in my Tahoe.... so I couldnt even do anything but sit back and root for the LT1, who never decided to race, and the mustang just took off on him. probably made his day.

Instead of swapping stuff from the z06 to the Formula to make it better, sell the formula for z06 upgrade money. Or vice verse, unless you really wanna keep both cars.

I said OK I live 3 roads up meet me at sonic. I showed up with my car he changed his mine said he heard I made xxx power and it wouldn't be fair..haha

I kind of have to expect it sometimes with my bone stock 02 Formula, but still.. I hate it. I always regret bringing it out instead of my Z06 for **** like this.

I was driving over to my parents house today. Completely minding my own business. It was mid 40's outside. Cold as ****. I was thinking about the sheet pizza I ordered last night and the wings that were there waiting for me (I'm house sitting... Watching the dog). So, its cold as ****, I'm tired because I didnt want to wake up (it was noon, but hop off... I like to sleep in longer on the weekends), and hungry. Nothing good was on the radio. I have my choices between commercials and that ******* weird asian song "super condom style" or whatever the hell he's singing about. So, I turn the radio off...

What else could make me mad?

How about a GT500 merging onto the highway from the onramp. Yeah. Awesome.

I should have learned my lesson last time I came across a mustang that I knew prior to racing thats just way out of my league. DONT DO IT! You'll only be pissed off. even more.

So, this GT500 is behind me now. It looks nice, but I know what this guy is up to. He's out to get me. Sure as ****, this guy pulls up next to me and I'm thinking.. WHY couldnt I have just brought the Z06 out today?!?!? No jet engine noise this time, but that still doesnt mean this thing isnt making a **** ton of power stock than I am.

I give him a wave.. look over... And I just keep thinking. ****. I'm about to be grabbing ankles again.

At least it wasnt a new GT500. It was the older style, pre 2011 I think.. And its not that loud. I kind of think its stock..

But being my car is a GM, and has shitty window motors... I cant roll down my window to really get a good idea about what it has. If I try to roll my window down, Its a bitch to get back up. Its on my "to-do" list over the winter.

I just say **** it.. Dont let this guy beep (what the **** does he need a fair start for? He's going to hawk me down anyways!). So, I get a head start. Sure as ****, just like I expected, this guy is at my door and walking past me seconds later.

He wants round 2. He beeps once.. And I'm off. **** waiting. I didnt let him get to the other 2 beeps. What do you need beeps for!! Here comes GT500 guy.... Walking past me again with absolutely no trouble at all!!! Not like I was expecting any different of an outcome either.

I give the guy a thumbs up.

I hate losing. HATE it. This wasnt just losing, but more like getting bent over.

I get over to my parents house and start chowing down on the pizza and wings.... Stupid stock fbodies. Cant wait for the H/C/I/n2o setup from the Z06 to make its way over to my Formula this winter.
good read! I actually laughed.
