97 T/A LT1 vs 91 355 RS

Well a buddy of mine, you all know him as Huffs_91_RS, anyways I was pulling out of the gas station last night and lo and behold, here he comes, so I pull out and go after him, well i catch up and we both gun it, I was in 2nd gear(6speed), and he was in drive(350turbo), well i pulled on him pretty easy that time, so we decide to go again, this time he was in 2nd and me too, we both gun it, and oh my ***, that thing absolutely owned me he was beating me by about 1 1/2 cars when we shut down, and I know he would have kept pulling, that car is awesome, and the thing is he hasn't even got it in good tune yet.

Sounds like that car is a real monster. Nothing wrong with getting beat by your own kind

pewter

Thanks!! I'm not the best when it comes to colors, regardless that color is really nice on those cars, there is one running around here that has some aftermarket 17's or 18's on it and is lowered a little bit, it is a very sharp looking car!!
