Nobody knows what this car is about. i was trying to get a Firebird to play last night and he wouldn't ( i so could done him ) i'd hate to say this but i think some amber color marker lights and "blue head lights" and some underbody lights would do the trick... so i wait for this firebird to turn onto the street that i was turning right on and i pull along side him and look at him and we slowly drifted up to like 90 MPH at a roll like we were doing i coulda smoked him. we pulled up to two differant red lights and went but he didn't go almost like he thought he coulda taken me but i wouldn't try.

Yeah, I could never get anybody to run with me in the TII. It was like no one even saw it, even though I'm sure they could hear it, lol. It's true that no one really knows what they're about. Oh well, I'm sure once I get my car rollin' again, the new rims and lowered suspension will net me some more kills.

If it's a LS1 camaro/firebird with a half decent driver theres no point in racing a stock t2, it will be a joke of a race. You need more boost. My Coworkers firebird w/LS1 goes 12's and it's all stock just cat back, automatic too. We ran 12 something on the gtech pro in it on 53 near lisle / bolingbrook, can't remember if that was with or without any spray, I think the bottle was empty that day. Thats with me in the passenger seat too.
Honestly, if you want to attract attention / get lots of street races, you just need a louder exhaust, not ricey, just louder so it sounds modified. Of course, all races on the street that are not for money are pretty inconclusive, since most the time when you beat a car on the street with a driver that has a clue, he's not going to go ***** out with you until theres money on the line, so maybe the next time you encounter him you'll be more willing to put money up if you think you won last time.
and be careful man, I hope I don't read about a black T2 in the lisle paper like I did with my friends supra:

see... i'm not the type to go weaving in and out of traffic... i'm one for quick smokes ... like 0-80-95 MPHish on straights but.... i do understand the consequences of a ticket in illinois and an accedent.... i try to be as carfull as posible as far as that goes... but i like to go out and just cruise... sorta show off my car in apropriate manners and just drive and listen to music.... it gets me away from everyday things .... WAY AWAY
