This morning on my way to an appointment I was on a rural 4 lane road in Indiana and a young guy in a red Camaro comes flying up beside at a light in one of the small towns that is on this highway. Well we really didn't take off there but a little farther up the road was another light where two highways cross. We both gave each other the look. Race on....
I pulled the 'Rauder down into first, O.D..... off, climate control.. off... radio..... off, left foot on brake and bring the r's up. As we set waiting, I say him locking the brake and bringing the r's up.. Left turn light, turns green... heart starts pumping... yellow, arrow...... here it comes.. red yellow. our light green...... dump the brake and mash the peddle. Black Bart II (car's nickname) launches me out first...... revs coming..up pulling away.... he's close and trying... 6000 r's.. go to second... BAM!!! tires bark and another surge of power... now we are pulling away... WOO HOO What a rush... before we where done we where, let's just say moving along and I was a good car length or more ahead!!! GO Rauder....
Whew!!! just had to share the story.....
(BTW the guy had to follow me for the next 20 miles... :D )
