Around 5 years ago, I raced an LS1 swapped S DIME on the street and he taxed the hell out of me. That loss haunted me for several months.

Well it wasn't my worst death but I was in the car. Back in 1998 my buddy had just bought a new Camaro SS 6 spd. This way before I knew anything about the ls1. We were hauling *** down the road during lunch time from work and stopped at a light. Two girls (fugly) in a mini van pulled up next to us and the passenger rolled down her window and said nice car. He asks her jokingly if she wanted to race and she said yes. When the light turned green he dumped the clutch and stalled the car. They took off (well as fast as a mini van can take off) and left us sitting there. I laughed so hard I also choked on my drink.

Like said, it's the colorful name for the S10. You have never heard of it before?

I was in my v6 daily driver and alot of my friends have early stang gt's which are normally a pretty even race against my v6 though I often loose by a car length or two. It's all in good fun because they normally provoke me, just like the other day. A green mustang rolled up at a stoplight that I thought was a GT gave me a rev and a hand signal. I didn't rev back because my v6 exhaust sounds like **** in neutral but I decided to go along with the race. On the green I mashed the gas and got quickly embarrassed because he flat out stomped me like I was standing still. As he passes me I take note of the lovely cobra bumper and felt like a turd for even trying.

My dad also has a C6Z. I haven't raced him yet, but I really don't need to either as I know what the outcome will be.

my worst kill had to be at the track thsi past summer. Got lined up against a supercharged 03 z06 with spray. Actaully know the car well since he street races with all of us so I knew i was gonna get stomped. Lined up and treed the **** outa him so that was enough to get me excited as he blew by me at about the 100 ft and roared away. Sick car sittin on a drag pack. Didn't feel so bad when I went to bed cuz after the track a bunch of us hit the street and saw him lose twice to an absolutly sick grand national!!...got beat by a supra ont he highway once too now that I think about it. He told me to go so I took my hit an ran all i could hear was SPOOOOLLL as he walked me like a dog!!!...beautiful car though

Lost to a Chevy step side truck in the Z06... it was a 383 stroker with a 75 shot of nitrous to cool off the super charger... and some john force rear tires. My car was stock. I got beat by 5 lengths by the end of my 2nd gear.

Great thread!!
My worst was two-fold....

One night coming home in my lightly modded 95 GT mustang I see this Grand Prix pull up next to me on a long stretch of road, he starts pacing me, and at about 50 he punches it and I do to, well up to about 110 he has probably half a car, not too bad for giving him the break, etc....

I see the car a couple weeks later out and about and walk up to talk to the guy. He remembers the race and says my car runs real good to keep up with his. Suprised to find out he has the GTP with pulley, tune, exhaust, intake, blah blah and runs real well. I ask him if he wants to go run them again from a slower speed to get a better race and he agrees. My buddy in another stang follows us out and watches as this guy puts BUS LENGTHS on me from a lower speed....it wasn't even a race. Not sure what happened b/w the two nights, but I will NEVER underestimate a modded s/c 3800 again....geez.
