OMG... amazing race! Me vs 454 Chevelle SS vs Subaru Impreza

omg today the most amazing race happened. i still dont know whether i should shit a brick or what. anyways i was driving home from getting lunch, and at a light i was turning right, but as i approached i saw the back end of a 454 chevelle with the ever popular SS badge and stripes. i could have just fainted. it was beautiful.

when he took off he floored it, got it a bit sideways and spun the tires into second gear. it was crazy. meanwhile i was flooring it just to try and end up beside him to give a thumbs up and a BIG smile. he did this in the third of four lanes. i was in the second lane. then out of nowhere a blue subaru(not wrx i believe) flew by on my left(first lane). well a light was ahead and the wrx would be the first car, with some suv beside him, the chevelle behind the suv, and me behind the wrx(the chevelle guy changed to lane 2 and i changed to lane one. there is no longer a 4th lane since it was turn right only. i gave the guy a huge thumbs up and he smiled back in the chevelle.

well the light turned green and the impreza launched it, the chevelle changed to the third lane(cutting off whoever was in it) to go around the suv before lane 3 ended. i was flooring it behind the impreza. the chevelle guy took the lead, i got behind him(by about 30ft or so) and i passed the impreza as well. i let off at about 120, the chevelle guy must have been going at least 135, and the impreza driver was way behind me so i dunno.

but omg it felt so nice to get my ass handed to me by a REAL musclecar!!!

Now that's what you call "homicide by motor vehicle". But stated in a good way!

I was reading a magazine before that described it as "weapons grade torque" I thought that was quite fitting.

Good loss. I love racing cars that are relatively faster then me (Except that 10 sec. stang at Speedway, that wasn't even a race ).

yes it was freaking awesome, the dude in the SS was balls to the wall peeling rubber all through first, second, and most of third gear, and a chirp in fourth. i wish i went back to take a photo of the skid marks lol, it must have been like 100-200ft?
