First kill!

Now before you guys go into how street racing is only for morons, drop it
'cause I don't wanna hear it. For the most part I agree with you guys, but
there are some occasions where ya just can't resist it.

My first kill in the '69 Boss clone was this evening. A beautiful raven
black '67 Camaro SS with Silver stripes. Rolling start @ ~30mph. I'm not
sure if he's gonna gun it. He takes off so I jump on it too. He was ahead by
1/2 length on start and I slowly reeled him in and pulled even within 1/8th
mile. The whole thing lasted about 10 seconds and he gave up when he could
see my rear bumper.

Pulled into the AutoZone which is a few blocks away and pop our hoods. (You
shoulda seen the ricers come out of the woodworks then, LMAO!) He's got a
chromed out 350 stroked to 383 with a Holley 750cfm DP, Edelbrock RPM
Air-Gap intake, 4-spd manual and 3.73:1 posi 10 bolt. Fairly close match
with my 393 stroker 351W, 600cfm Edelbrock, Edelbrock Performer intake, FMX
tranny and 3.70:1 Trac-Lok 9".

He said he runs high 13's at Bandimere. I wonder where that would put me up
on the hill???? I'm sure I could run 14's all day long with my current
setup. But 13's? I'm not so sure. I'm thinking he was fudging a bit.

Forgot to mention he's running Edel RPM heads and I'm running D0 cast iron
Windsor heads which were ported/polished and now run roller rockers.

Good story. Get ready though, the PC police are likely to ambush you
for your transgressions.

I think you could get into the 13's. Take it to the track and find out.
It kind of gives a reality check to me. I hit 13.3 but thought I would
do better,(spun to the 1/8th) and at the end of the 1/4 I realized
111mph is not safe for the street(Takes a long time to slow down)
There's really nothing good to say about a street race though, so I won't.

If you upgrade the power, you have to upgrade the brakes.

Now you need a program to kick out a decal to stick to the ride... a
tiny little Camaro... maybe with a bullseye over it.... : )

Oh please. Lots of people street race. I do. All the time. I mean,
driving 60 in a 30, or 80 in a 40 is kewl. I know I know, someday I might
kill someone. But at least if it's a member of your family, you'll
understand. Cause you're kewl; just like me.

OH!
My ex has an uncle that had a beat up old truck that had little stick men
painted on the side.
It's funny as hell! He has about two rows of them and one that is only
half... never figured that one out.

The only thing I'd understand is the feeling of satisfaction when some one
did to you as you did to others. ****ing asshole!
