Default few kills last night riding along with tiburon

SO last night after the track, myself and tiburon go get his truck to head to the local hangouts in town, his truck having the cutout uncapped, we thought it would be no problem getting some races.

so driving along, we first come to a lt1 camaro, not sure his mods, but as we catch up to him and give him some revs he guns it, File guns it after him and reals him in fast, although traffic did not permit him to pass, but he would have been toast, we signal him to go to another street and he just looks shakes his head no and drives on..


next up a 5spd mustang, late 80's, at a light we pull up to him and instantly hear a exhaust not that isint sounding to stock, nice little lope to it.. we race him from a roll, cant remember what speed, but we ended up putting like 4+ lenghts on him by 80 i think..

last we were talking about how we'd like to race a stock ls1 to see how we can do against it, well after a little while, here comes a 01 firebird, we signal him to go from a 30 roll, 3 honks and we go, its neck and neck, but the weight got us and he just starts pulling slowly.. not sure if he was modded or not..

care to add anything i forgot file?

Street races...IN TRAFFIC !!!!

I'm OK with stoplight to stoplight and highway rolls but racing is traffic is DANGEROUS, not only for the racers but for the OTHER PEOPLE AROUND YOU....

I'm not condeming street racing....just do it safely OK

Its a 212/218 and it was installed at Lethal Performance in San Antonio. Labor for cam, springs and pushrods was $350. Tuning was another $425 I think.
