    Default Ran a mach 1

    Well tonight i was going to walmart when a mach one passed me. We pulled up next to a red light and i got next to him. I knew if he hit it from a stop he would murder me b/c my second gear is barely hanging on, and of course he did.

    The car barked the tires and took off like a raped ape. I hit it and as soon as my car grabbed second and shifted into third he was already way ahead and let off. So i thought, lets see what he'll do on top end and pull off onto the bypass and he followed. I nailed it and he did to. I was looking in the mirror as the headlights were gaining a little while i was in second and then when i hit third my car began pulling a little. He hit the breaks all of a sudden and then i noticed we were going waay too fast. We were where a police usually sits to so i about shit a brick hoping he wasnt there.

    We were pretty f'n even up to 130 when we shut down. I was expecting to get my doors blowed off but this lil lt1 run pretty damn good for what it is.

    Yeah, Mach 1's are pretty damn quick. I ran one at the track before in an event, and he beat me. I guess hes running 13.3's pretty consistantly with only an exhaust system. Good runs.

    I agree I ran along side one just a couple weeks ago with me spinning my a$$ off coming out of the hole, then he missed third gear and it was all over. Oh and the mods on my buddys is exhaust, tune, and K&N

    The guy really could drive, ill give that to him. Even if my tranny wasnt slipping i think he would have def. got me on the low end. I started pulling pretty good on top end though.

    The Formula is an A4? Good runs, those Mach 1's run real strong! Next time try and run him with the Z28. The spray should put him in his place

    Yep, the formula is an A4 that is on its way to the shitter. Im gonna try to replace it with a th350 though.

    Yeah, im sure i would have embarrased him with the spray, i just wish i would have had it when i ran that challenger a couple months ago, that would have been priceless, but i would have felt a little bad too.
