I kicked the crap out of an LG4

I was driving my Hawk around last night when this kid pulls up next to me in a Camaro. I asked him what he was running. He said it was just a 305. I asked what kind. He said it was an LG4. I asked if he had any mods and he said just a flowmaster. Well, I shot him a couple of revs and he didn't even look over. When the light turned green, I left him like he was stuck in reverse. After about five minutes he caught up at the next light. I pointed at him and laughed. It was cool.


J/K guys.

I would never be such an ***. Anyway, I've been missing my thirdgen for a while now so I have to admire them from afar. Lately, I've been seeing some really nicely kept Camaros. One is a red 87-89 IROC. Perfect looking. The other was an 85 yellow IROC. I've never seen a yellow one other than in magazines when they first came out. How many yellow IROCs were made? It was sweet looking and almost had me rethinking my desire to get an 85 Trans Am. Does anyone here have an original 85 yellow IROC? Hopefully this is the beginning of a trend where people start rescuing third gens instead of running them into the ground.

I don't know about people saving them. I am seeing more and more 90-92's in the scrap yards. thou they are usually the V6's.

wooooooooooooow I am impressed you beat a LG-4 most people beat them on foot, does that mean someone on foot can give your HAWK a better run.

I had a 97 Z-28 what a lemon after it's first year what you think your car will be in 20 years slow compared to a newer one, my guess is yes.
