    On my way home from work and this kid and his girl in a white Z28 pull up along side of me. Didnt rev his engine or anything until the light turned green. I heard his engine scream and I knew he was gonna try to show me up. I could not let that happen. I pulled ahead and kept my lead. I didnt max out my engine and was still able to show him he couldnt gain on me. We both let off at around 45mph. (speed limit). Gotta get used to the torque steer on this thing. Sometimes it hits hard others not so much. GXP 2 others 0

    eh i dunno. my cousin had a 94 z28 that had only headers, cai and some better plug wires. at the time he had taken out the back seat and was makin way for a roll cage so alot of the interior panels were off. when he went to the track that night, he ran a best of 13.8. not fantastic or anything, but not horrible.
