Street Racing!

Figured I'd share a story that recently happened. You have to be a gearhead to appreciate it.

Going to the grocery store in my 1990 Chevy 2WD Suburban and pull up to the traffic light next to a 1965 Chevelle painted flat black, dark tinted windows, some pinstripes maybe 18 inch wheels, looked at them and could see some wildwood type disk brakes... opened my window and heard the rumity rump. So I give the guy a thumbsup and he must know I can;t see in so he opens the window and gives me the thumbsup.

So I have my foot on the gas and the other foot on the brake and I am watching the traffic light closely!!! So I am ready to give this guy all of my 170 HP pushing 6000 pounds and the light turns green! Ha! I was about a car length in front of him (thank God) before he realized we were racing and I heard a BOG.... so by now I got 2 car lenghts on him when his wheels start spinning!

Anyway he was past me SMILING before we crossed the street. But it made my whole day! :laugh:
