Randyj75 | SOP Experience of a Life Time! | ||

I had a very exciting experience today, I drove a friends '90 Corvette w/ a stroked SBC. The car was a absolute rocket ship, the acceleration is just unbelievable. There is nothing quite like coming down off ramp and flooring it! I was doing about 30 mph, and what seemed like a second later I was doing close to 90. I floored it from about 50, and the rear tires broke loose, and the car got a little sideways. What a monster I could/would get myself in lots of trouble w/ a setup like this. I have driven/owned some fast cars in my day, but nothing like this.
What a great day |

Yeah, a good stroker's fun. If I'd have had a street car as fast as my 388 LT1 when I was 18, I'd have probably ended up in jail, assuming I survived at all!

That is a neat feeling... almost as good as sex.

I've been in an 1,100hp car.
Once you feel that kind of power, there's no going back. |

Yeah, that what scares me. I really don't want to spend a big pile of money when it gets to be time redo the engine in my car, but the feeling of driving a 427 Musi built sbc can be addicting. Oh well, guess I gotta keep buying those lottery tickets. BTW Brian, I love your avatar |
