Well as some of you may know I beat a lightly modded Z28 this week in the Houston area, well, I post it on this board and crAzy95z28 responds saying he would run me ect. So I start talking to him on AIM and we decide to meet right by my house and go out to a open road that crosses HWY59. Well it turns out I know the dude, he went to my high school and I had been over to his house MANY times. So we talk for a while and decide to head out to the raad, I had my lil bro with me, he might weight 150 pounds max. We got all the footage on video and I threw together a lil video for you guys, I knew I was gonna get beat, I just wanted to see how bad it would be, I did pretty good from lower speeds and stops, but once we got going his power advantage really started to show, his car has GREAT top-end pull for an auto, with some tires I don't see why his car would not run well into the 12 second zone, well enough of the talk, here is the video...

...and on the vid, it says my cars best ET is a 13.5, I meant to put 4 and did not even realize till the vid was all done and was WAY to lazy to go back and re-edit it again.

Good runs it is good seeing that you two can race and one person can admit a loss and not have an excuse for it, good runs by both cars.

What is that song in the begining?Yea, the video was taken at night with a POS digicam, with no night mode, so the quality is not the best. But I can clearly see the results of every race. The 1st song is the beat from "DAMN" from Lil Jon.

It is a stock GT motor from '99-'04. It stands for power improved. Better heads, bigger cams, better intake. About 230 rwhp stock.
