Camaro vs. s10
Tonight I had a great race with a kid in a late model v6 camaro. He was automatic, with intake, headers, y-pipe, and muffler. He passed me as we came up to a light, and I got behind him. At the next light he go in the far left, and I was in the far right. When the light went green, we took off. We both stayed pretty much dead even all the way up to about 90 if I had to guess. I think I might have had a nose on him, but I am not really sure. After the race he asked what I had done to my truck. When I told him he couldn't believe it. So we pulled over and chatted for a bit. He was cool, but a little distraught that he wasn't able to pull away from me. I wonder if I should have told him that I had a couple of tires, waterski and pressure washer in the back of the truck? Anyway, the camaro was blue with Silver stripes on it, I think. Either way, it was a fun race. Does anyone on here know the guy?

I kind of do .. I ran him once and pulled really hard and then couldn't get it into 3rd gear so I just let off.
He goes to st. pete college, seminole campus.

The only power adders on mine are a Jet Chip and Full Msd ignition.

I'm for real. I would never own a vehicle with a V8 in it. I hate V8s.
