Default Schooled big time!

My buddy and I are on our way to a car show. We are cruising down a road at about 65, and we roll up on a bright orange old school chevy step side turck. this truck is sporting some huge slicks on the *** of it, So I ride behind him for a while figuring he is going to the same show I am. He is doing about 50mph in a 55. So Justin (my buddy) looks over at me and says "smoke him". So I drop back about 10 car lengths off his bumper and grab second gear. I am rolling up on him fast and go to go out and around him, Then BAM you hear his truck fire up. It sounded like the world was about to end. Mind you I am doing atlest 70 - 75 at this time. I never make it past his drivers door. This thing had some much ***** that it stopped me even mid fly by.

I ended up talking to him at the show. He has a blown 454 pushing 911RWHP. And the best part is he says he drives it to every show he attends. I just could not believe that he instantly stopped a 20 - 25 mph speed increas on him nearly instantly. Was insane!

Anything with slicks on the street raises an alert to me, you have two possibilities -1 he's an idiot, -2 he needs them. I've only come across the first one.

Chevy High Performance this month has an issue on Supercharging. They did a super basic 454 based built that made about 700 to the wheels. It was freaking cool. I want a rat motor so bad.
