Default Kerns vs 05-06 GTO

I was on my way home the other night and I saw a red 6.0 GTO with a blackout panel. I didn't talk to him so I have no idea what mods he had but I could tell he had an aftermarket exhaust so I assume that and an intake. I pulled up and there was a little traffic so I ended up getting ahead of him and left it in 5th as I accelerated to around 90mph. He stayed on me the whole time until we got past the traffic and I got into the middle left lane and he stayed in the left lane. I slowed down to around 60mph and hit it a few times to let him know I was ready to play. He took the hit and jumped out maybe a fender before I stopped his pull. I ended up having him be at my rear tire by the top of 3rd. I slam 4th hard and stayed in it as I continue my pull. I ended up shutting down at the top of 4th about 2 to 2 1/2 cars up. My exit was coming up so I slowed down and got off without getting a chance to run again or talk to him. Was a fun little race and it was a lot of fun since I hadn't had a chance to really have my car stretch its legs lately. It also sparked my racing binge this past weekend.

Nice run. Sounds like he probably had exhaust and a tune at least. I'd bet $$ there are some headers on that list as well.
