Texas..It's a Whole 'nuther Country
Day before yesterday, Darling Wife and I were going to meet Michael and Nick The Great for lunch.
We were going around the loop on the West side of town... it is 5 lanes each direction and usually has very little traffic on it.
That day there was almost no traffic at all.
I was in a bit of a hurry and came up on a 2004 GTO...
He didn't want me to pass him and as I came up close to him...He stood on it and I did too.
We were doing close to 80 at the time...
He pulled me a little bit from 80 to about 95 ...
from 95 to 115 I held my own...
from 115 to 130, I was gaining on him..
He either hit the speed limiter at 130 or let off..
By that time I was back up beside of him.
I passed him but then slowed back down to more or less legal speeds.
He never would come back up beside me again... haha
Now a couple of questions...
Does anyone know what the HP was on a 2004 GTO??
I was really surprised when he didn't pull me real bad when we stood on them.
I was surprised again when I started catching him...
I kinda figured he would just run off and leave me.
Then again... maybe he was geared low for drag racing and hit the REV limiter... I don't know.
