Killed a 3.8

Out not that long ago. it's -5 degrees here with a -20 windchill. at least all the snow on the streets are gone.

anyway cruising back to work and saw a silver 98+ camaro with single exhaust (must have been a V6). we kinda go back and forth and finally we both hit it at the same time going about 30 mph. now, -5 degrees is cool in a NA car, but two turbos love it even more. Didnt think the back end would start getting loose on me, but it did. let off @ 80 or so which took what seemed fractions of a second. he was pretty far back. guess it was kinda being a meany, but it was fun.

also, he had louvers on a 4th gen! I didnt think they made them. Cant say if I like them or not. I liked them on the 3rd gens cuz that was an 80's thing to do which was pretty cool. but it just didnt flow with the lines of the 98+. oh well. still got me excited.

One of these days I will buy a 4th gen and NOT run the miles up on it

Like they say, 3rd time's a charm.

nah not a lot of ice. streets were cleared. it was just one of those really fridgid (sp?) clear and sunny days. Ever see "the day after tomorrow"? like at the center of that storm when all the warm air goes to the clear sky and everything freezes... kinda reminds me of that.

i do feel like a bully. but it was all in good fun
