well it's been pretty dead in here so I thought Id post my first race...
This was back in May of 2004...I had just traded in my powerdyned 1998 V6 camaro for a white 2004 coupe C5...
I thought that from 0-40 mph they felt about the same power wise but after 40 mph the c5 had the clear advantage...
Well im driving on the interstate about 2 weeks after buying the car and I see a white SS camaro pulling up fast on my white coupe...
MY HEART SKIPS A BEAT....THE ALMIGHTY SS CAMARO WANTED TO RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After 2 years of being on this board, building my V6 and always hearing about how fast the SS camaro was....I totaly forgot I was driving a C5 for a second and got intimidated....
He pulls to my right with us both doing around 70 mph and he throws me some revs...
I wanted to return the favor but my car is an auto....
So I just stay by him admiring the car and awesome sound and then he hits it..No 3 honks or anything. Just BAM!!!!
He gets a car or two on me from me punching the pedal late and then it's on....
My first thought when I hit it was WOW..He's not pulling any more!!!!!!!!
We stayed that way with him around 1.5 cars in front of me till around 90 mph....I THOUGHT, MAN THIS SUCKS IM GONNA LOOSE....GOOD THING I SPENT THAT EXTRA 25 GRAND FOR THE SAME ENGINE............................................ .................................................. ..................................................
But then somthing unexpected happenned....around 90 mph I started to gain on him....By 95 mph Im at his rear..By 105 mph were side by side...And by 120 mph Im a solid 1-2 cars in front of him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We were then coming up on a quick curve and both shut down. I COULDNT BELEAVE IT...I HAD JUST EDGED OUT THE ALMIGHTY SS CAMARO!!!!!!!!!!
It's one of those memories that I will never forget...Both are cars were white and I actualy dont remeber seeing any one else on the road the hole race. It was like it happened in slow motion. Especialy the part when I started pulling from his rear to his front...
