it looks like a greasy ol stock 307 ....................but its really a bow tie headed 408 with 500 hp of secret nitrous under the intake.

eats your ass with total sleeper effect.

ALWAYS....... bee leary of old men in huge cars....... the right amount of gigle gas and good driving can make you look stupid...... ive had my ass taken by a few sneaky old farts.

I've seen more than a few of those "old men." Theres one that shows up at Gateway every now and then. Drives a crown vic towing his 60's f100 on a dolly. Unhooks the truck and rips a couple mid 11 passes with the camper shell flapping around. Then loads it back up and leaves.....

Then there's one that drove in a 32 chevy coupe all original with some 8.5 MT's in the back (only clue). Thought that was interesting.... He ripped a 9.20 with some ungodly huge turbo on his straight 6
 
I'm pretty sure its stock. And its a show car. So not to much grease. I'm not worried and it probably won't happen.

I would race him and then stop @ the end right before the finish line and let him cross before you do. Then say "yep, you were right, ya beat me ol'man!.....then again that may be too much of a slap in the face and just asking for a family feud!
 
Let me know when you're going. Numidia PA? Sweet track. You can treat at Knoebels!!!

maybe throw it in reverse for a few feet and then drive again and beat him anyway
 
Beat him like eggs!

With that said you should do what I used to do on my drag bike! I miss that rocket! 1994 CBR600 (900rr motor) with a sneaky Pete progressive nitrious system. That thing could run 9.9 all day without missing a beat and people thought it was still a 600. Didn't run it at Indy's track. Had to take it to US 41 drag strip to get the time to avoid letting the cat out of the bag so to speak. I did get taken to the bank once by a guy with a suzuki GSXR 750 with a 1100 in it (beat by my own trick and didn't catch it). There is always someone faster! Back to the subject.

Sandbag and just beat him by a fender. Get him running his mouth some more (since he likes to) and once he is in a frenzy get him to run for $50. Sandbag again and go until the well runs dry. The only way to teach people is by getting into their pockets.
 
All this talk for a stock 307 Chevy.

Edjumucate him, go home and never talk about it again.

But I have told a lot of people no simply because it was not worth the waste of alky as I never turn the boost down except for my first two shakedown passes at test and tune and driving in the rain.

If you race, crush him right from the go!
Don't take it easy, especially if money is riding on the race.
Don't let up until you reach the finish line.
