Default 5.7 vs 6.0

I pulled up next to a nice 06 Goat at the light and I started to talk to the driver and his girl. You know the typical compliments on the car but secretly insinuating a run. He had a catback and just put in headers, but he said it was running rich. We eased into it and took off from about 15mph. We stayed dead even throughout the whole race. He kept jumping a fender after each of his gear shifts but I would always even out after a second. We shut down at about 100 because of a upcoming red light. No kill, no death but a great run, and in this town full of ricers with more stickers than mods...well they are hard to come by. Very cool guy and the car sounded great.

Sounds like fun, good job! Nothing better than some head to head LSX action!

hell yeah, we rolled into it easy so not to make too much noise with the tires. Its saturday night and the cops are on double duty because of the walmart parking lot full of Paul Walker fanboys. But with him having full exhaust and my cutout wide open, well the tires screech would have been a whisper compared to the screams of the LSX's.
