Ran a second gen TA last night

I was on my way home from work and decided to cruise through town to see if anybody was out. This TA pulled up next to me and was loud as hell. He had his air cleaner sticking through the hood, whatever that means. Anyway, we didn't have a light together, so we just kept goosing it a bit. Finally, we hit a light together and he asked me how much horsepower, and I told him factory rated at 305. He said he had a big block, but I don't have a clue what HP or even what size it was.

Anyway, the light turned green and we both got a pretty good launch. We were neck and neck through 1st and 2nd, but he was starting to edge away in 3rd, before we had to let off.

That was one mean sounding car, that's for sure. He was a good sport, and I think I surprised him a bit. He's probably used to running Mustang GT's and didn't know what I had. He gave me the thumbs up and turned off.
