He shifted out of 6th you mean, and gave you 3rd gear probably. Cause if he gave you 6th gear and pulled away 2 cars, I think you have problems with your car. 3rd I would think would be a decent gear for power at that speed.

well id have to say that 60 for an lt1 isnt a good roll run. 40-60 sucks, go try one from around 30-35 and you'll see what im talking about. from about 30 i cant keep traction to save my life but once it grabs some traction it takes off nicely.
i doubt he was in 5th or 6th. probably more like 4th and downshifted to 3rd and pulled you real quick.
current car- 95 Trans am- bolt ons, parked and collecting dust. why? because **** it
