This is definitely my best kill ever and will be hard for me to top. I was tuning up the GN all day Saturday in Phoenix and decided to check out the local cruise/show spot. My brother and I hung out there for a bit and took off to grab a bite. I look in the rearview and saw what looked like a C5 vette. I slowed to see if he wanted to play and soon it became obvious that it was not a C5 but a red Ferrari Testerossa . So we go back and forth at 45 or so for nearly 15 blocks until we finally got a light. He knew what GNs are capable of and said he may not win but it would be fun to try.
I brake boosted to wake up the 70 turbo and left the line revved but with no boost. I jumped him off the line and it was over, had him by 3 car lengths by the time we both shut down. We got another light and he said that the Ferrari is more a top end car so we offer to go from an 85 mph roll on the nearby freeway. We both line up on the freeway and put the pedal to the floor. He spins tires at 90 mph and we kept even until 130 then he had us. I had just put on Nittos and installed the SMC alky kit that day and without both this story would not be possible. Nothing like smoking a $150,000 car to put a smile on the face.
