SS vs. V8 S-10

I ended up racing a S-10 with a 350 in it. We went from a dig; I was a little nervous since he had trac. bars and DRs. Well we went and I beat him by a 1/2 a car!! It was cool, I somehow had a s**tty launch even tho I warmed up my DRs. He was at the middle of my door the whole time with him pulling slightly to the front of my door at the top of each gear and when the tranny shifted he would fall back a bit. Awesome race ... the guy was pretty cool and we B.S.ed for awhile after. His motor still had stock heads but had some different cam in it, not sure which tho... it cut up pretty good at idle tho and sounded badass. It also had LTs and full ex. Best race I've had in 3-4 yrs. IMO the best races are the close ones... win or lose.

Sounds like an awesome race. I had a similar experience racing a Corvette earlier today. Very close, making it much more fun. It does kind of suck when you KNOW you're going to win though. Good kill! Keep up the good work.
