Exclamation WHAT The Heck was that!

I went out crusing last night, looking for a few runs. I run up on this little neon, doing about 65. Then all of a sudden I hear this noise from his car, ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz and the smell(like AV gas for planes). It takes off like a striped ape!:wow: So I fall in right behind him, There was traffic so I could pass Him. So I Hung on his bumper, Finnally the traffic opened up and I was going for the pass. He pulled into the Navy base here. I wasn`t going to follow. But I did yell to him to come on off base to finsh what he started! I was so close I could have pushed him! Needless to say, He didn`t take me up on my offer.
Any way the Question is, What was that? A turbo or maybe NOS? My son who was in the car at the time seems to think it was nos. (My son is 21 and in the Navy.)
This is the back roads of GA, Normaly with the exception of a few SVT`s and SS`s, I`ve got the reans of the town. (small Town)


Thanks!

Perhaps it was an SRT-4. You probably wouldn't want to race him then.
