3.0CL (1g) Vs Me...

This race happened around barret pkwy on my way to work. Got a line up with a younger guy in a maroon cl... he had a muffler and maybe some interior gauges.. and loud music.

Anyway, I gave him all of first gear (I was about 1/2 throttle keeping even with him) When I heard the auto shift I nailed it. It wasnt even funny, maybe he put it in reverse... I used second for a couple of.. seconds... I felt like I had abused him enough already, so I let off and went to to the office.

Anyway, thought Id share with you guys who are bored at work. I guess my 'vtec' was better than his... ha!

My car is stock save for a CAI.

I've still been looking for ya around here but haven't seen ya pass by yet. I still want to see that car and maybe see what they can do along side one another. Preferably already at speed.

I had a Chysler Concorde try something similar earlier today on Canton Hwy near Piedmont (not the best location considering what is near by). I pull off in 1st and imediately went to 2nd when I see him lurch forward. So I got on it about 70% throttle and moved ahead and let off. No sense in wasting the fuel.

Drop me a note when you are in the office in the next comming weeks. I'm heading down to DynoLab hopefully next week for more time on the rollers now that the IC and more boost is in place. I am definitely going to hit it in the morning though as it has been very hot lately around here.

I just need to get the exhaust cut out in to see what the differences are with the stock exhaust in place and without.

I assume you will be driving out to Atlanta to run with 351MachOne.

Maybe a race to Jackson, MS since it is about half way.

Having a daily driver is a blessing and a curse.

I never have to stay up till 3AM wrenching on my car, but then again, the car *would* be fixed.
