Just got off of school for the summer and to begin my break with my friends wanted me to race this kid. He just bought a brand spakin' new 2002 camaro SS w/ most slp opitions- including a $800 corsa exhaust system He spent $33xxx on that car! Ouch with that I could have 3 11 sec gn's Well anyway this kid has no idea what my car really has and he probably doesn't even know what all his car has. So I get everything ready (alky, gas, ect.) and meet up with him at this gas station off of 290. The showdown begins! Well it turns out to be like this huge deal b/c 20 or so people show up and its totally on. It was great b/c I wanted all those LS! guys to see the true power of a buick. So we roll out of the gas station and we hit up 290. No one is in sight and everything is good to go. I get the boost to around 4# and i let it rip! I pull extremely hard off the line gaining about a car and once I hit 2nd I was gone. I began to pull cars after cars on this guy and once i was in drive I was about 8 cars a head. I got it up to about 80mph and was 12 cars a head. I showed him my tail lights and began to shut it down. This was with only 18# and no tires! As he goes screaming by me (sounded good) I begin to feel my car really wobbling. As I come to like 20mph my rear left tire just blows out from under me and I come to a stop. As I got out of my car I was thinking worst possilbe case but it turns out to be alright (just the tire blown). Barely any damage to the rim and just a little dent in my exhaust. Everyone there couldn't believe how my car just raped this kid's new SS. I put the spare on a few min. later and just took her home. Most of the guys there showed up at my house giving me kudos on controlling the car after the blowout and just beating the crap out of the SS. People seriously couldn't believe what happened (got everything on tape and watched it) and we began to joke about how funny it was to see my tire fly 50 feet in the air! Good day to say the least and glad no one got hurt! Yes... LS1's are really that slow...
