Lighning gets struck...cobra gets bit and the LS1 that almost didnt

Lighning gets struck...cobra gets bit and the LS1 that almost didnt

in order of how it went down...im patroling my neighborhood when i come up on this TA sounds mean cut out for sure...give him a couple revs but nothing...thinking it aint gonna happen,bamn yellow light...we go i think he rolled out and then decided to hit it or...didnt have the tires..either way at 100 he went by me hard and shut it down...killed...

next the 97 vert snake same scenerio throw him som revs but nothing...then we turn off together and he gets in my lane...im thinking maybe he changed his mind...he gets beside me..."dont wanna ticket tonight" i point at the up coming yellow and he nods...we go ...he's spining...barks second already two cars back and just shuts it down...next light ..he asks what have i got done...i tell him...and on my way...i find myself behind my friend in the burgundy mustang,not knowing it but hoping its someone thatll run...when i notice an SS then a Lightnin...go past my friend give him the nod...and catch a light next to the lightning...the SS didnt seem to wana play...just as well already had a loss tonight...light goes ,we go and the lightining is a car back and loosing ground...now im not walking but creeping maybe 2 cars by 100...

just piss a young person in a fast car off by flying by them.... or ...... play around with quick cars on the freeway, if you're behind one... and it changes lanes do the same, stay on their ass.... u can aggravate someone into a race lol..... or just drive quickly someone will see u and try to mash out on you.

Even with your "masssaged" 13.4, I don't see you beating LS1's and Lightings and Cobras. Maybe no one else likes to mod in your part of town, but I know plenty of all three that will tear you a new one. And I mean TEAR you a new one... I see lightings in the 12's all day at Milan? <shrug> Then again, this *IS* motor city.... =) Don't get me wrong, 13.4 is fast as hell for a CL, but it's slow as hell for anything else...
