They get thier azz kicked by the waterpump dumping coolant onto the IGNITION system. I dont even have to start my car. Its Camaro self destruction. Look on your tq arm, theres an expiration date on your car like yogurt..

awhile back i came across a blue cobra,
on way from work on the hiway with minimal traffic, the blue cobra had a pss.
and was being trailed by another pewter mustang and a new black mustang.
seems like they were racing each other, and slowed down when they saw my car, 02 som ss. the pewter car lined up to my left and the blue to th right.
they were making signals to run, slowed down to my spped about, 55
i dropped into 3rd from 6th and took to about 7k, shifted and put about 3 lengths on the blue cobra, and the pewter was nowhwre in sight, shifted 4th again and cobra was trailing at my door, couldnt seem to get in front, was just by my door. finally let fo at about 130. dude in cobra gave thumbs up.
when we slowed to about. 60. then pewter mustang finally caught up and driver gave me dirty look, i did the same,
i chunk'd a deuce. went on about my bizness

364 ci ls2 conversion
self ported ls6 heads, ls6 intake, ported tb
225 comp cam, .600 lift
self made lt headers and 3 in. exhaust.
spec stg 3+clutch
mailorder tune.
