Default CrAzY Story!!

Ok so Im driving home from work and I come up to a Red light and I see another black Ws6 coming up in the right lane....they pull forward just enough for me to see JUST the hood...couldnt see the driver.....So im sitting there and all of a sudden the car starts revving like crazy and the car pulls forward a little as I get ready to launch....I look over and I SWEAR there is a 80 year old lookin lady just waiting to race....she had the grey curly hair, big magnafying glasses and a sweater on!!!!! Im just thinking HOLY ****!!! So the light hit green and she roasts them!! It was HILARIOUS!!! so I go slow driving like normal thinking I dont want to race an 80 year old....then I just think what the hell and then downshift back to 1st and race over I passed her pretty quick cause she had an automatic....Anyways just thought I would share this CrAzY experience....

Later that evening im cruisin around and I see some headlights coming up on me quick....thinkin it was a cop I make sure Im doing the speed limit as the car passes its a burgundy 94-97 Cobra (bad *** sounding!) he just takes off and we play follow the leader for awhile till we hit a red light....After the light hit green I slowly started going then punched it and noticed my traction control was on he got maybe 2 feet ahead of me....while im shifting to 2nd I pull a chuck norris move and hit the TC button off just as I shift and immediately pulled about 4 cars on him....I let off around 95 with bus lengths on him....I tried to give him a thumbs up as I meged onto the highway....he just revved real loud at me and did a ricer fly by....

LoL those are my stories from last night....hope you enjoy!!

It's not the fact that she had an automatic and you passed her, it's the fact that you said you passed her because it was an automatic.

"1st and race over I passed her pretty quick cause she had an automatic"

right...i supose a Stalled auto is slower from a launch and a roll too

say if you have 2 stock LS1's....

Ones a auto, and the other is a 6 speed....

go from a 20 roll guess what, they should be pretty damn even. Why?? because they are in the same power band.

When you floor a Auto, does it NOT downshift into the proper gear to keep it up in the higher RPMS?? some people act like a auto downshifts only once and its not enough. If your at the right RPMS a auto will infact downshift 2-3 gears also....

Only difference is Dyno numbers. Thats it. End of story.

READ WHAT I POSTED.....STOCK autos are slower off the line.....race from a 40mph roll and I guarentee the auto will lose if its stock

Oh and If you had 2 stock LS1s racing from a dig like you said I would put my money on the 6speed....He can launch at any RPM

and like you said IF its in the right RPMS it will downshift 2-3 gears....I can down shift like that almost anytime I choose

AND LIKE I SAID....from MY experiences Autos have always lost to me
