Last night I went out with my friend just driving around looking for street races, so of course, we ended up racing each other a bunch of times. He has a 1980-something el camino. He dropped in the GM 350 HO delux crate motor, and a 700R4 tranny with a shift kit. I think his only mods are an MSD ignition box, headers w/ true duals(no cats either), and a K&N filter.
Well, he ****ed me up from a dead stop and from a 15mph roll. Wasn't even close. He beat me pretty good from a 30mph roll, too, but it wasn't as bad. Then we went on the highway... :evil_grin: We went from 70mph, and we were dead even til about 80 when I started to inch on him. I might have passed him, but there was traffic so we had to hit the brakes at about 90 or 95. So, my car redeemed itself after getting stomped earlier. He probably would have passed me once I shifted into 4th, but we never made it that high because of traffic. BTW, each of us had a passenger.
Anyway, he also raced a new Mazda max speed (the one with the turbo) with a 5 speed and beat that, but it was kind of close.
He also beat some kind of 2 door super charged buick. That was bad enough where he was playing with the guy. Like the buick was at WOT the whole time, and my friend would just goose the throttle, let off, goose the throttle, then let off etc etc...
And I also raced a v6 mustang from about 50, and made him look pretty stupid in front of his girlfriend.
Oh yeah, I also smoked my friend's mom's 1980-something 2 door cadillac from a 50mph roll.
And amazingly, nobody got any tickets!
