Default PRELUDE SH vs>LT1

thought this was kinda funny to share,i have a 00 ls1 ss,but my daily driver is a 01 lude sh.More people seem to try and race me in that than in the camaro(think its the color,eletron blue).anyway i was driving at about 35 when this cat in a lt1 pulled up and slammed it beside me. i was thinking he would take me pretty easly but i kept the vteh kicked in above 5600 and managed to keep it good half a car lenth ahead to about 90 or so,then backed off. i was surprised, i can pick on stock 4.6 gt's all day but thought healthy lt1's would run mid to high 14s my best time is a 15 flat on a hot day. only mods are a cold air intake and cat back. anyway i guess he had a shitty car because it seemed like he was driving good.

If you pulled on him in a 15 second car, and you say he was driving good, then that LT1 was a turd.
