Been Waitin For A Shot At One Of These!
WELL ME AND A BUDDY HAD JUST FILLED UP WITH GAS AND WAS CRUISING AROUND WHEN A NEW 05 GTO PULLED UP NEXT TO ME. THIS IS THE DAY AFTER THE NEW CAM INSTALL AND E FANS, SO IT WASNT QUITE RUNNING AS GOOD AS IT IS NOW. BUT I WASNT GOING TO PASS THIS OPPURTUNITY UP. SO WE'RE SITTING AT A LIGHT AND HES BEHIND ME SO I THROW A COUPLE OF REVS AND HE RETURNS THEM. SO THEN I JUST LET IT SIT THERE AND LOPE A LITTLE! 
LIGHT TURNS AND I GUN IT TO SEE IF HES GAME AND HE IS SO I SLOW TO LET HIM PULL UP NEXT TO ME AND WE GO FROM A 30 ROLL, I PULL HIM UNTIL I HIT SECOND, ABOUT HALF A CAR. THEN I HIT SECOND AND HE STARTS TO COME BACK. WHEN WE SHUT DOWN AT ABOUT 90-95 HE HAD ME BY ABOUT 1 1/2 CARS. 
NOT TOO BAD CONSIDERING I AM SHIFTING MANUALLY AT ABOUT 6100 RPMS CUZ THE REV LIMITER IS STILL SET AT 6200. 
AND THE CAM IS SUPPOSED TO PULL EASILY TO 6500. BUT ALL IN ALL IT WAS A GOOD RACE AND I WAS VERY SUPRISED I STAYED WITH HIM AS WELL AS I DID. CANT WAIT TO GET THE STREET TUNE FROM ALLEN THIS FRIDAY AND RAISE THOSE DAMN SHIFT POINTS AND REV LIMITER. BY THE WAY THIS WAS AS FAR AS I KNOW STOCK AND IT WAS AN A4.

Nice run!!!! I've only got to run one of the older ones. It was at the track, he was stock and on street tires, and I was on the slicks. This was also when the truck was running its best times. It wasn't pretty for him, but he knew something was up when I was begging him for a run. 
Sounds like you're going to be running some great times with the new tune. Go find him again afterward and post up the VICTORY.

I really like the new GTO. Good kill.. Its impressive when a truck beats a 400hp car..
P.S. The little light on the caps lock tell you its on. Just push the button again to disengage.
