Well last night my buddy and I are heading up to see the fine art of exotic dancing, and I am comming up to a red light on a 4 lane that opens up to freeway. I was prob. going about 20mph and in the left lane there was a Cadillac DTS along side of me with dark tinted windows..I didn't think anything of it just kept rolling waiting for the light to change..
Light turned green and I was in a hurry to see those dancers so I give her a little gas to try and get there quicker, when I notice this DTS is still next to me..suddenly it starts passing me and I tell my buddy, can you beleive this guy? So I floor it and get back up to it's door and stay even until about 70-75 mph..then he started slowly pulling on me.![MAD](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_mad.gif)
At that point I was pretty pissed, this guy just took me down...thinking to myself, damnit..I thought I could hold him off..now embarassed in front of my buddy with him laughing![Bang Head](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_banghead.gif)
I guess I can't blame him for laughing though, my little ole' 96 Grand Am just couldn't keep up with that caddy.

ya I don't understand it...when I am in my camaro, never get an races...when I put it in storage for the winter and drive the Grand Am..suddenly ricers come out of the shadows and try racing me, and now this Caddy...although I don't think he was racing to begin with, lol..but I still got owned.
For all those ricers I should get a bumper sticker that says "Good job, you kept up with a winter beater!"

The reason I didn't have my camaro is because it is in storage for the winter ![Sad](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_sad.gif)
That caddy in those videos is insane!
The girl in my avatar is some hot chick![Winky](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_wink.gif)
And ya those caddy's can move pretty good, especially the STS with the V8..test drove an 06 STS the other day and man that thing had *****.. those automatics in them things feel like a manual when they shift..pretty neat..it would give my camaro a decent run even.

Or even worse I will be driving my car and I will have my son with me. You can imagine how many runs I have turned down because of that. (I don't do anything with him in the car). I honestly get pissed thinking about it.
