I had a guy in a cts-v we were playing a bit. I know he should beat me but it's always fun too see where you stand.. We ended up catching a light and he has a kid in the car so I just let him go on.. But I couldn't believe he was doing that with his kid in the car.

I've beaten ctsv's before when I had Bolt on's. I don't think he was playing with you.

I had a 12 sec SS T/C, car only had a tune, downpipe and intake. Was making 330WHP and 380 WTQ... very under rated cars

I had one of those Mercedes 6.2 AMG cars rev his motor at me on I-10 in light traffic. I was able to get ahead of him due to traffic and I noticed him coming flying up beside me and as his front bumper reached my passenger door I down shifted to fourth and walked away from him. Left him two bus lengths behind. I set back to cruising speed and here he came again. I let him come to the front bumper making us even before down shifting and he gained a car length before I walked right on by leaving him way behind. This guy tried it one more time before he gave up and stayed back

I always have trucks try and pace/race me. I'm in a bright red camaro. Ya right, the cop is gonna go after me and not your pickup. So what I usually do is open up the cutouts and rev it a couple times and watch them take off and waste their gas haha

I alway manage to get people in Challengers try to race me...cutt me off in traffic pace around. Never ran a Hellcat, and obviously would lose, but anything less then a 392 and its pointless. Camaro blows the doors off all of them... including 392's...least the ones im getting harassed by. Seems like its hard to get them to stick. I never see big 392's hook up, least not against me.

If your car is stock the 392 needs a driver mod
