Let me give you some history on my car first, it's known around town after months of racing, so most people won't race me anymore, unless they're in something that would maul my car, and getting import owners to race me now days is like pulling teeth.
Later on I'm next to a newer Cavalier and I do the same thing, I get him all the way up to 60, but then he pulls in front of me and my front bumper is at his door, at about 75 I start to pull on him until I hit 112. We then get behind traffic and I see a pair of older Jetta sedans come up behind us, I let the Cav over to get in front of the car in front of him, and the silver Jetta shoots up and around in the third lane. At this point I'm doing 70 and nail it again, and take off past both of them when the black Jetta with the V6 comes up on my ass, swings in front of the Cavalier, and I hit the speed limiter again, so he went on past.
Had it not been for the speed limiter I could've taken the Jettas I think. I never knew that the 4.9 had the top end to compete with those higher revving import cars. The fun part came when the Jettas both got in front of me and we were coming down from our 10 minute burst of triple digit speeds. My passengers thought I was going to slam into one of them because the car was doing a nose dive while I was using all of my available braking force - I managed to get slowed down before them.
Some of you Cadillac guys may recognize the story from the Cadillac Owner's site, minus the first part. Sshh, nobody can know about the first part :Bang
Expect alot of race stories from me, on and off the track.
