had a gr8 day, got alot done. comming home from the gym on I95, not much traffic, goats got 320summin miles on it now at that point...right lane, doing 65 or so... varying throttle...letting the engine still stretch and break in smoothly....
a very pretty cranberry color looking c5 is in the middle lane, cruises up next to me...and slows down nose to nose... i glance over...guy in the passenger seat is smirking... driver floors it...(must be an auto from the sound of things, i had my window down)...and off they go... im still doing 65 or so...shaking my head... jersey tags...i see... oh well...bless his heart.
he backs off, drops back and nose to nose again.... passenger puts his hands out the window like "wtF"... i shook my finger at him like "no no".....
he flips me off.......and they floor it again...........gone.
drops back again.....nose to nose.......
i lost control......this time..im in third now... the passenger is laughing..... they floor it again....im a split second doing the same...... by the time i hit 4th the overspeed chime set at 100 was burning my ears and i had over 5 car legnths on him and still walking... i backed off and started curising my inner self for doing this... he pulled up next to me and motioned at the exit sign comming up;... well that was fine for me... its the exit before mine and i can take the back way home... i motioned him to drop in behind me.. he did. we took the exit, there is a mobil station on the right and i pulled in. so...he gets out..walks up, and i got out too... (right away...he identifies himself as a novice when he says) "so..you must have nitros oxide in that thing huh?".....
i said...."no".
he says "really, so what have you dont to it"?
i said.."you really want to know? dont take offense...."?
he says "h#ill yes".....
I said "8 coats of zaino show car polish"........."thats it".."she's new man..i didnt want to run her this hard yet..but you guys acted pretty nasty about it".........
"its stock" he yelled and looked at his buddy.......
I said "yes, its stock......its the LS2 my friend.......".....
he said... "thats not right... i pay all this money for a vett and this happens"...
i said "...dont worry...i 'd never try you in the twisties man.... by the way...your car is awesome...looks really good....."
he turns, and walks back to his car without saying another word....his buddy looked at me like "sorry"....
depressing folks... really is..car folks are in this together....
oh well..........
tell yo what..........
my CompTA felt fast.... and ive had muscle cars since 1967... but this car is a rocket..........bar
