Default Killed an SS today

I was driving to visit my grandma today when I saw a red silverado SS up ahead of me. We didn't get to line up at the red light but I reved it up to him at about 25 when I passed up the car in front of me and signaled him to race. From 30 to 80 I got him by 2 trucks and he couldn't gain on me after that. Then we got lucky and got a red light up ahead. He looked over and stallled his truck up as I did the same. When the light turned green he got a good truck length in front of me but by 50mph I was 1/2 a truck ahead. We reached till 100 and the outcome was the same, I beat him by 1/2 a truck from a dig. I don't know his mods but he did have a nice sounding exhuast.

First off nice kil!! Next, were you spraying? Is the time in your sig on juice(what shot)? Also, do you know if he was still stock?

I was not spraying and I havent ran nitrous since the cam was fixed. I have a dyno tune appointment with Nelson this Friday and as soon as I'm back home I'm headed to the track. As far as if he is stock or not I don't know, all I heard was a nice, loud sounding exhuast that not every super sport has. The time on my sig was with a 125 shot, stock cam, 3.42 gears and no headers. Hopefully I will be in the 13's on spray after I am tuned.

Hey sorry to ***** but weren't you having trouble after your cam install? I followed that thread for the longest time but it never seemed like you figured out what was wrong. What was it?

Nice kill on the SS. I think the cam helped you a bit.
