A few days ago blackoutgt called me up and told me he wanted to show me a curvy road out in the country by Navasota and try out his new vararam. Since I just got my Pedders track II I wanted to see what is could do so we met up and I followed him out there. It was about 104 outside and after 40min or so of absolutely insane driving we headed back to town. The cars needed to cool off as my brakes were practically worthless by this point. I don't know exactly how far we went, but I do know that I was 100+ on most straightaways and was flying around curves at nowhere near the posted recommended speeds. I had no idea where the road was going at times so was a little hesitant to push it too hard at points but this drive was about fun not who finished first.
When we got back into town the first chance we got Sam lined up his mostly stock GT next to me and as soon as the light turned green my little extra torque helped me immediately pull a couple lengths. We couldn't go far as traffic was starting to pick up but he put up a noble fight, and probably caught a little mod bug. Sorry Sam...
But I will say that his car handled very well bone stock through the twisties. Props to Sam on his driving skills too. It was a great road with only a couple other cars on it that were both coming the other way. A jeep that pulled out in front of me and as soon as he did a dead dove flew out of the back. He turned around to go get it. I'm sure he wasn't poaching or anything...
