First of all, I don't drive my GN much and when I do, I drive it like an old lady...lol.
Anyways, I was minding my own business and a new Diesel Ford truck kept pacing me...he had a gauge pod, big exhaust and lots of attitude. I wasn't planning on running him at all..and it was from a roll (lame I know)...but to get my attention he about side swiped me...of course that got my blood boiling!
We were going about 55mph...So he punches it, and I put it to the floor (which I don't do much)..he got a jump while I was wanting for the boost to kick in...finally the needle shoots up to 26#'s and I lay a couple 10 foot black marks. Honestly scared me a bit, apparently I forget how fast these cars can be!! Obviously, the GN made short work of the truck...even tho it was no slouch.
I've driven faster cars, but this car is an animal...Very deceiving when u just drive it normally...I'm used to a big block and the rumble and low end torque...the Buick is quiet and mild mannered, but all that changes really fast.
Not a great race, but I thought I'd share anyways.
