I pull up to a light and see this fart can hanging out the back of this Firebird at the light. I am thinking "WTF is this guy thinking?" The light is red and I can see he wants to run cause he keeps creaping up on the line, acting like he was going to stomp me. So I say to the girlfriend in the car with me "watch this ****." I pull the lever to 1st and wait for the light, no power braking. The light turns green he hits it I hit it. I pulled about a 1/4 car immediately which I thought to myself he is an auto. Manually shift at 6k which puts you at 6400k or so when the slushbox actually shifts, I then pull a whole car on him and kept pulling so I let off and he was going to do the FLYBY! I said to the GF "here he comes," I was in the sweet spot to downshift to 2nd and hit it, he pulls up to my door and slowly but surely I pull his *** again and f*cked up his FLYBY attempt. I was laughing my *** off! I then let off and let him do his FLYBY and said to my GF he had better buy the Trans Am next time.

really nice kil
Those V6 auto's never have a chance and you didn't even torque break the car

 

nice run

 

good kill

 

I never thought Firebird's 3.8L is able to keep up w/Maxima..sounds like he was very close to you. There were stories about vs. V8 'Stang..anyone went against TransAM?

nice kill, maxmiam!

 

those things will kill you, especially the ws6 with ram air. they got 320+ horses. good luck.

 

V6 4 dr sport sedan 3400 lbs., fighting a 3.8 or 350 sport coupe, we are still sedans.
Nice kill.

 

Ya actually I did pull pretty bad from him. I pulled a full car right after I hit 2nd, he was strong off the line, remember my car is a GLE which means auto (very slow off the line). After I pulled I immediately shut down at 65 or so and slowed down to 50 then the flyby comes and I had to hit it again and pulled him even though he had a running start.

As far as a Trans Am? Ya I know all about them, the LS1 is one sick puppy and I am currently in the market for one. I was going to SC the max first but the LS1 has got me, I love that '98+ F-Body!

But I keep thinking how nice it would be to suprise the heck out of someone with 300hp+ under the hood of the Max!!
