Post Got beat by z28

What would u expect, look at my sig. But it was cool. My friends and I were on our way back from Ennis 1/4 mile track and I was in my truck, my friend jeff was in his gen2 L (he ran a 13.8 last night) and one friend in an 89 mustang GT and the other in a 95 GT(both who i beat btw ) Anyways we were all coming down I20 and there was a red z28 up in front of us breaking, so we could catch up. I ran him first and it wasnt bad at up until about 80 and then nothing but taillights and then Jeff ran him with his L and it was also good but jeff lasted longer than i did with him but the z still pulled on us all. It was fun though. About 1 a.m. and not much traffic so we all had lots of fun racing.

Joe, what gives? First you say your friend in the L runs a 13.80 and you beat him running a 15.164? Now either I am doing the math wrong or you are a Chevy owner. Forget being beat by the other car.....more importantly you were beat by a FORD Lightning. Bye Bye, Nat

Joe, my my....the defensive attitude of a Chebby driver too? Lets all remember that you have "something" that you don't list that "could beat" the other guys car/truck. Most importantly we, the Lightning owners already posess that "something". Take care now. Nat

Thats cool, Joe. There is nothing wrong with that.
About your Vette; Have you done any suspension mods to the rear yet? I dont think its going to like all that horsepower. What do you think? Rod K.

Silverado, I really enjoyed reading the second your second post. If my list of mods grew that much after my first post I'd be in the 10's by now! Your hands type faster than your "vette" goes.
