Default Embarrassing....for the other guy

I was just tooling around in my s10 at about 40mph and a 4cylinder s10 pulls beside me and throws a rev. I let him continue on ahead. I put on my turn signal to turn left and he weaved across traffic in front of me and turned left. I dropped the ratchet down to 2nd and paced behind him while he floored it. As soon as the right lane opened I eased into half throttle and shot passed him shaking my head. I never got over 55...thats how slow he was going, while still flooring it. I slowed down and he got beside me and asked..."What do you have done" I told him it was just a 350. He said.."Thats gotta have nitrous" I laughed and said nope. At the next light I smoked a girl in a v6 mustang only because she wanted to race. Sad races, I know but its all i could find.

Good kills, but sounds like you're having as good of luck finding "real" races as I am. I guess we'll just have to take what we can get.

What the hell is up with that? The only real run I've been able to track in the last couple of months was that Eclipse I posted about the other day. What gives? Is gas really killing people that much?

Nice runs Joe. My roomie is getting ready to drop a bottle fed 383 into my old Noma that he bought. It should be quick once he finds traction.

Thanks guys...Yeah I'm taking what I can get I guess. I only press the gas up to about 55 or so just to get the point across. Your friend will have no luck with traction thats for sure. With my 350 If I give anything more than half throttle it looks like the bed of my truck is on fire. Maybe this weekend I can post some stories. Later.
