It was a beautiful NC day today, so I washed up ole Betsy and took her out for...a spin.
After I wasted a 1/4 tank with no luck I headed back home. That is when I ran up on some guy driving a red LT1 Z28 with an SLP loudmouth and black 96 SS wheels. He punched it trying to getaway, and I reeled him in easily twice, but that Z was pretty mean sounding. Then I got in front and laid on the throttle and put him in the dust.
While I was fartin' around with the red Z lo and behold a mazda miata with padded roll bars, lowered, nice wheels, black with silver racing stripes (yeah, I know, but kind of baddass to be honest) rolls onto 70 behind us, and he has some hottie with him. (trying to impress no doubt)
I threw him a rev when he is right beside the catback, him and his woman were smiling ear to ear on that NASCAR tune. We both punch it and cone about 3 cars in a row then pulled to 115 or so in a straight away, but something caught my ear. I could have sworn I heard a roots blower when this guy punched that Mazda. I put some lengths on him, but I think the Mazda put the old butthurt on the LT1 in turn.
We come up to a light, and they are behind me, and still wanting to race. I leave a nice set of lines going across the intersection, he flies up, then we take off again, I put another whuppin' on him. I slow to 55, and he pulls up beside, we give the thumbs up, and he punched it, and there is NO DOUBT that car had a fkn blower on it. Can you believe it, a fkn Mazda Miata! It sounded just like an 03 Eaton, that shrill whistle.
Dang, that thing looked like a hopped up go cart, and pretty damn cool too, with those racing stripes...not to mention the blower. :worship:
Wish I could have gotten a pic of that little contraption.
