    Default My GSR hatch Vs. Last Z28

    I was on my way home and I see a camaro behind me. It's the last body style camaro, not sure of the year, 97-00??. He pulled up beside me and I see it's a Z28. I'm thinking, "this is going to be interesting." Anyways, we are going down the road, no other cars are around so we hit it. We were both going about 45mph, I didn't downshift, I just stayed in 4th gear. He pulls on me. Ok, he didn't get too far ahead and I should've down shifted. Sweet, he slows down and waits for me. We look at each other, I tell him I didn't downshift and he's says "alright." We go again except I downshift. I went to 3rd even though I had a good 20+mph left in 2nd (40 roll). We are even for a bit then I start to pull on him. Not quite sure of the mph when we stopped, but my back bumper was at his front bumper. I slow down and he yells that his car is an automatic and kinda smiles. I get down the road and

    why would u
    1: not downshift
    2: upshift when u have 20mph left?


    sounds sketchy.

    remix
    my d16b4 vs: new zo6

    we were goin down the highway at 4:30 pm on a friday afternoon (no traffic at all) and so we punch it. we both smiled as we were racing, our hearts were beating, and we were having adrenaline rushes, we get near 70 mph and i see hes about to start pulling, so i upshift to 5th and str8 leave him. we both left off at about 180. good kill IMO.
    And miles to go before I sleep,

    I didn't downshift the first time b/c I wasn't ready when he took off so I just floored it. I kept it in 3rd for the second run b/c I have a bad rear motor mount and it kicks the motor real hard, so I just sacrificed a little speed so it wouldn't kick and possibly pop it out of gear.

    haha, true, but I'm too lazy to pull it on wood, then jack it up, set the jack stands, and lay on the sizzling hot cement. Just gotta get to my friends shop on a weekend.

    I don't race for money. But I might head out to silver dollar friday night if I can get my motor mount in and make a little money. It is a lot quieter now, I put my axle back back on. Any pics of the z28?
