Default Killed a 1/2 ton Chevy

Got my first legit kill tonight! (Nobody ever wants to race, mind you I don't really try to get anyone to) I was coming into town about 70 when a new Chevy ex cab shortbox 1/2 ton starts passing me about 90 mph, so I punched it and tried to keep up, but the old girls legs are too short. So he's flashing his brake lights and swerving lane to lane,so I followed him and caught up to him at the red light. He revs the crap out of his loud exhaust, so I did a 1 sec burnout, put 1600 rpm on the TC, heard him footbrake, light turned green and I matted it. Both hooked good, although I spun a tad more. Grabbed a length by 60 ft, and had 2 lengths by the time I hit 50. He must have thought I got lucky cause he wanted more at the next red light. This time we both spun a bit more, and I had 1/2 length till I hit 2nd and jumped ahead at least another length. Slowed down beside him he wouldn't look at me. It made my day!

I've got 800 lbs of slip tank, tools, and tires in the back to help 60 ft times, . Some extra weight don't hurt when you have twice as much torque.
