My 01 ss vs 98-02 Z28
 
I was just cruising around enjoying my somewhat newly purchased SS, when I see a pewter z28 getting off the interstate. Well I speed up a little bit to catch up to him and got next to him and downshifted into 2nd. He looked pretty uninterested and kept looking straight forward.

So I figure he doesn't want to race...well we get next to each other at a stop light and I looked over at him and still he just looked mad and straight forward. Well the light turns green and I take off normal and so does he, I stayed in first until about 20 just in case he tried to race, well somewhere between 15-20 mph he gets on it and so do I.

Starting out we both had some traction issues, but when I shifted into 2nd I started to pull slightly. Throughout 2nd I was barely pulling, all through 3rd I was pulling a bit harder and at the end of third he was at my bumper. The next stop light he turned off and gave me a thumbs up. Pretty fun race, and my first race against another LS1.

From what I could tell he had exhaust, and an A4.

Still haven't lost yet, and i'm getting ready to buy a new lid and some exhaust, as well as new rims and tires...I need some traction.

Good kill, M6's allways seem to have the upper hand in most cases, unless the A4 is stalled, or geared.

Yeah i can't wait until my friends 94 camaro with an LS1 swap gets back on the road(rebuilding tranny), i'm curious how i'd do against him. He's got full bolt-ons basically. A4.
