Default first race

ive had my car for a few months but i havent been able to drive it until yesterday because of mechanical issues. well today i was leaving work the same time as a coworker, who owns an ls1 camaro (not sure on year). we got on it on the on-ramp, and he was only began to pull slowly at about 70mph. we went until 110. im not sure how much he beat me by because i started a few lengths behind him. i was more than happy with this lt1s performance, seeing as it is 100% stock other than !EGR and !AIR. to top it off i have a leak somewhere after the header and im trying to solve an overheating issue.
