03 GT vs LS1
So as i was goin through town yesterday a Z28 pulls behind me, i think it was a 99 or 00 i wasnt really sure but the guy def wasnt stock. For one i could def hear him over my exhaust, and he was lowered and had a giant cowl hood on the front of it. I was like ohh geez great hes gonna wanna race. So as im headin out of town goin to get on the highway he follows me out. Facing the inevitable i get in the right hand lane slow down to about 40 and let him get beside me. We both hit it at the same time and he puts about 4 cars on me until we reach about 100 and stop. The second race was a tad better but not much as he didnt pull away quite as fast as the first race but we had to stop to upcoming traffic. It was fun messin around but damn those things are fast and he def would have killed me if we would have kettin goin faster but oh well it was fun.......Damn you LS1

I call driver error [8D]
how did it feel though?
obviously you were expecting to get stomped, but was it worse, or not as bad as you envisioned?
personally, if i knew there was a LS1 with a cowl hood, i'd expect it to be worse, but then again, 4 cars in just the time from 40-100 is kind of ugly
i'm still itching to race one from a dig and quit and declare victory after the first 100 feet 
at least had fun right?

Nice run bro. If the camaro had body color side mirrors and the round front end it was a 00+....black mirrors and round front is a 98-99. The sharper front is a 93-97...I think they all had black mirrors
With the giant cowl you'd think he'd have a lot of work done....but then again a highly modded LS1 would've left you more then 4 cars behind. Did it sound like he was an auto?

Nice run man, losing to an LS1 is usually a part of life for us stang boys.
although with a CAI, tune, 3.90's, and full exhaust, i think i could have a chance against a manual LS1.
EDIT: looks like you pwn a stock LS1.

Ya he was def a stick i heard him downshift right before we went...I think the cowl was just for looks too but who knows he was fast
