    My Brother in Law went out and bought him a 2002 Z28 after I got mine last year. He's a good guy, but a bit of a follower. Anyways it's his first real "fast" car and he talks junk about it non-stop. We've raced before GP vs his Z28 and I always put at least 2 cars on him. The other day he was talking junk as always and we decided to go shoot some pool....

    On the way we lined them up, my GP vs his camaro. GP won from a dig even while spinning until literally 40mph. We went until about 80 I had him by a full car and still pulling. Went from a 35 roll after that. I destroyed him even worse until about 100.

    So he still talked junk while we were playing pool, but not about the grand prix (or turtle as he calls it since it's green). For some reason this boy thought his Camaro with only a lid and tune would pull on my full exhaust Camaro.

    So I raced him in that and beat him by about 3/4 of a car. From a roll. From a dig I got at least a full car on him.

    Then after this double beatdown in the same night, he started saying that he thought my camaro was faster than my GP! BLASPHEMY!

    So the next day I let him drive my camaro and I proceeded to put a beatdown on my own car. 35-40 roll I got it with the GP by at least half a car maybe more.
    Now from a dig I didn't pull on my Camaro until about 60 and it took until about 100 to edge it. Stupid traction.

    Long winded way of saying the Grand prix rules this area (with an assist from the cold air, I'm hitting 15 psi on it lately)

    No vids btw because i'm a loser and don't have a car adapter/hookup thingy for my go pro. I need to invest in one. But here are some pics of the cars so there are some visual stimuli in this thread..

    If only i could show you the level of ridiculousness we have to put up with from him on a day to day basis, you would understand.

    He's 27 going on 12, yes.

    It just reminds of several people I've had to work with in the past.

    Their mindset on many things just gives you that dafuq face all the time.
