lightnings arent the greatest from a higher speed roll,there much better froma lowspeed roll[about20 mph] and from a dig they can be deadly.

Some people are just morons like that. They act all "bad" in spots where they know that no one would posibly go for it like in traffic or an area that is well known for cops. They are most likely showing off for their friends. But than when the opportunity arises they back away, or have some kind of excuse.

There is a kid in town here with a Fox-body Mustang (NOT stang-bashing here, this is just the kind of car that he drives) that has twice pulled this on me. He revs and gooses it forward to try and get me to go but the only problem is there are cars like 10 feet in front of us so no way. But once the traffic lets off he just slows back and eventually turns off. The first time I was like OOOOOkkaaaayyy??? The second time I just marked it off as him being a dumbass with a loud exhoust.

i was told he said after we played on ringgold he though he didn't have anything for me... he could have just said that i would not have wasted my $ 16.00 LOL ( 8 miles to the gallon and it took a couple gallons to follow him down the freeway ) LMAO

There's no way you are getting 8 miles/gal unless you cruise at 120mph.....but still nice kill!

Maybe the guy was just cautious to go from a freeway roll, because he knew it would have been sad? Lightnings with just the driver are ***** slow from a high roll, so if he had 2 passengers he probably diddnt want to even try you. Maybe he didnt know that it was a cop infested part of town and just wanted to try his luck at a speed where he atleast stood a chance? Not taking up for the guy, I wasn't there, he could have been an *** and just "pussed" out as you said, but think about it the other way, maybe he just knew that his truck didn't have a chance in hell on the highway and backed off.
