Went to the local cruise tonight and met another tb.com member with a wicked 87 WE4. About 10 cars decided to cruise out to the beach. Alot of fun, about a 10-15 mile cruise. There were a couple new challengers, a few mustangs, camaros, street rods and 2 Turbo Regals
about 5 miles into the cruise a yellow late model GTO does a fly by in the inside lane. We were lined up in the far right line of a 6 lane road. I was the 4th or 5th car in line. As luck would have it the light turned red as the goat passed me and the center lane was open.:biggrin:
I promptly got out of line and lined up next to the goat. light turns green just as I come to a stop and the goat rolls out. I give it some moderate throttle and he takes the bait. As soon as he nails it I jump on it as well.
I immediatly put a car length on him and start pulling away. after about 2 cars I let out and pull over to wait for the caravan. I get back in line and we finish the cruise to the beach.
When we parked I had several other drivers come up and say "thanks for taking care of that GTO." Another guy says "I knew the GTO was in for it when you went by me tires a squeelin!":biggrin:
Funny thing is I just put new 275/60/BF Goodies on this afternoon and I am still burnning all the way thru 2nd gear.
can't wait for my 3,000 converter and LT1 springs......
EDIT: when the gto driver caught up he wouldn't look over at me
