kill!!!

woooo!!! Im pretty happy. I saw a nice black 91 rs on my way too work . i passed him while he was turning onto a street and threw a couple revs at him. he then passed me up and i started to follow. i was on my way to work but i wanted to play so i followed. we weaved in traffic for a bit then we finally caught a light. i was gonna tell him about some websites but we got a green. he counted down from 3 then we went. i took him off the line and held him off. I had him by like 1/2 a car. I was pretty happy because I know he is rated at like 20 more hp and more torque than my stock 84 Z. I know where he goes to school so I will probably leave him a little note In the next week I plan to get an open element and 3 inch cat and catback.

lol...i know its not that big of a deal but I was just happy since he is rated at 20 more hp and 15 more lbs of torque. And his engine is probably in better condition so I expected him to edge me out. I dont have any times for the 1/4 mile right now. I just bought the car in Sept. Since then it has gotten a full tuneup and has a rebuilt 700r4 with shiftkit and vette servo. I cant wait till I get paid then Im gettin me an exhaust

not to trash your car, cuz i love z28's, but maybe you should swap out that engine and put in something better so next time you post a kill, you can say something dope like "i just whored a z06" lol

6 inch cowl hoods are usually a sign of something that'll eat you for lunch, lol, but then again, i know a guy with a lt1 with a cowl hood just for looks...

you'll soon learn that what a motor is rated at and what it makes are two completely different things...

Make sure you start saving your money, because I've been palnning on building a 383 since high school, and still don't have the money, and that was 7 years ago.
