Default Raced a Camaro SS

Last night cruising to enjoy the new stereo.

Two lane turn left (onto 75th in Westmont area) and a dark blue Camaro SS in in the other left turn lane.

I stay in 2nd and slowly accelerate after the turn, spinning around 3k, the Camaro is a couple feet off my rear bumper in the other lane...pacing me.

I hear the V8 roar, so i WOT. From my 3k-5k he walks from behind my bumper to about my rear door, but then he stops pulling. I hit third and start to slowly walk away, in third i have a length +...then we come up to traffic. We are just pacing each other, and lo and behold we catch a red light together.

So im giddy (i don't get to run anyone from a light normally). I bring the revs up to 4k and bouce em between 4k and 4500. Light turns green and im *gone* with a touch of wheelspin. I put a length on the SS in 1st, a length in 2nd, and i let off at the top of 3rd when i had about 3 or so lengths on the SS. It was a chase after the launch, but

Guy pulls up and they motion me to lower my window. The passenger asks "what the hell do you have under the hood?" I reply that i have a bigger turbo and associated stuff. The driver just says "damn you dominated." He then peels off into the night.

Cheers,
Sameer
