I was just out getting gas and this old body style SHO started merging through traffic in front of me. We get to this red light, but are behind some cars. Then this ambulance comes up from behind, splitting traffic so we let the cars in front of us get over and we get over in front of them, both of us on opposite sides of the road. He revved his engine as we waited so I knew as soon as the ambulance past it was on. I drop it in low 1 and as soon as the ambulance pasted I gunned it. He had gotten a rolling start and was about 1/2 a car length in front of me but I quickly closed the gap and lurched in front of him pushing low 1 and low 2 to redline. By this time I was about 3 car lengths in front of him and almost back on the ambulance *** so I tapped my brakes and flashed my emergencies for a second, calling the race off. He then pulled up beside me and revved his engine(again), I guess to show off his flowmasters, then he took the next turn off. Thought he would have had more power than he did........

Honerable kill. The old SHO with the yamaha motor could roll. If it was runnin solid, then you drive well yound jedi.

 

Maybe it was an automatic SHO?

Yeah, might have been, but if it was, he was putting it in neutral and revving it up alot .......I have an auto, so that should not have been much of a disadvantage.
