My best friend and I are always going back and forth on whose car is faster and bla bla. Well, My car has pretty much been out of commission for about the past 4 months due to a bad Cam and Coil pack and other stuff (Does it ever end?) so I've been hearing his sh!t about how his car is the fastest Bolt-on Impala (W/O N2O)in the state of Florida (And It is, 13.75@99mph w/1.85 60') and how his motor is still going with 142K and no rebuilt. It's a 95 SS Impala. He's like the king of the local street race areas here in our part of town (cause I don't go and all their is is ricers and crappy rustangs).
I've been buggin him ever since last week when I finally switched cams and coil pack and got the car tuned for 14psi. Well, I guess he just about had it with my sh!t so he gave me a call today at about 11 a.m. and we meet up at a local "warehouse" street race place nearby.
We both let our cars cool down for about 20 min. and then lined up. I was full street trim (235/60, 14psi, pump gas) and he was full race trim except for his 275/50 BFG DR’s, which he left at home. We both took air out of our tires ( I went down to 22 psi
)for some extra traction.
We did our burn outs, and then lined up. I held the brakes and brought the rpm's up to about 3,200 (still zero boost in my car)
1st honk, 2nd honk, 3rd honk and were of. I hook! And instantly have half a car by the end of First. Second gear comes in and I fish tail a little but extend the lead to 1 1/2 cars when it hooks! Third gear comes in and I easily have at least 2 1/2 to 3 cars on him (I'd say at about 80-85 or so) and still pulling so I let off.
He's one of these people who hates to lose and always has something theoretical to say that makes you think: "Damn, he's right, Fu**er) So he saids, "2 cars, 3 cars, thats it? This a big 4 door bla bla bla w/ bla bla".
On the way back home, we both catch a red light and line up again. Green light comes up and we’re off.
Again, same result. I had 2 cars by 65 or so.
But this wasn't enough for him. He wanted to see more Buick taillights (this time from a different angle I guess) so we went to
another spot, let the cars cool a bit, and lined up.
He was saying that he was spinning to much and I was hooking, so I decided to build 2 psi just to spin some tire for him and shut him up.
1...2...3.......Were of. I spun all the way threw the middle of second and still was able to stay next to him while doing it and when I hooked, pulled 2 cars on him and then shut it down.
This should shut him up for a while (or maybe not). I can't wait to throw on the slicks and fill up with C16 w/ 22psi to see what this baby will do.
Take care guys.
