Default Ram Air kill; After school

I was on my way home last weekend from school and a white ram air pulled up beside me. I looked over making sure he wanted to race, so we slowed down to about 55mph and honked three times. He got a jump, but second gear realed him in, by forth I was two car lengths ahead of him and let off.
It was a good race though, its always nice beating a car in the same family.

Lots of our cars were stock when we bought them, but people that are willing to race them have usually done the cheap basic mods that can gain them a few tenths for a few hundred bucks, is what overlord was probably trying to say. My first mods were a lid and umi shifter stick and those were purchased within 48 hours of buying the car. Nice kill btw, but beating another LS1 f-body would make me feel like I just slapped my own brother.

Sometimes, you have to slap your brother.
