Default impressed!

Today i was at a stoplight and i was the first car at the red in my lane and traffic was 3 lanes wide in each direction. Well, i happen to glance in my drivers side mirror and recognize the distinct front end of a Trailblazer SS. Well, i think to myself as it pulls next to me, well that would be cool to race but its a chick so no dice! Well, i was wrong as hell, the light turned green and woosh, that chick was on it, well i jumped on it and was dead even when i caught her for maybe just shy of an 1/8th, then we shut down and i gave her the thumbs up and she waved. I know these things have an LS2, so i was by no means underestimating this beast, but damn, we were neck and neck and i know she had atleast 1000 pounds on me!! Well, headers are on tommorow so ill feel alittle better about my car!

Went to Jenro's yesterday, there were some nice cars there. I was not able to stay long though. But next time, Hopefully I will be able to, and maybe go for some cruises.

Cool chick to say the least.

On a side note. I didn't think anyone would be there yesterday. Wish I would have gone.
