now seriously i just go out with the intention of cruising around...ill just drive the expressways and surface roads for 2-3 hours and burn up a tank...today it was only a 25 miler or so, and im just crusing down a 45 and i see a Ram Air LS1 doing like 65 easy....i stop first and when he pull sup next to me he starts revving the crap out of his motor...like i feel bad for it...its got a very loud exhaust, corsa maybe borla?..when he stopped flogging it and let it idle and its got a lope to it...i smile, he nods and motions for me to follow him...of course i do....he turns right on red before me and he gets into a little and it sounds really nice...i catch back up to him and we play a little goose it and let off...he starts slowing wayyyy down..we get down to about 30 and im at 25-2,600 in 2nd gear...i wait for him to go and he does..he got a half second jump on me and i was in it hard..i maintain the distance on him..(my door is at his rear wheel)..we get 70 and i nail 3rd good and he starts just barely walking away from me, heres 90 and im down a carlength (my nose is at his bumper) and he stays in it to 4th,i do aswell and the result is the same were he just barely distances me so i back out....naturally we schmooze at a gas station and i learn he has stage 2 P&P 5.3 heads and a hot cam along with LT headers and the exhaust...ohh yea it was also a 377 incher ...told me he traps 118-120....im soo friggin bummed i cant take it to the track this year...but i guess thisll have to do
i asked him if he was a member on any of the boards..he said hes on LS1tech but i cant recall his name...its a black ram air 6 speed and the plate says GRMREAP.....
