Saturday night I was out for the first Mt. Clemens, MI cruise of the summer. I was heading down Gratiot when I came up on a newer Silverado, lowered, manual trans, really nice exhaust note, CAI (pretty distinct note)...not sure what else was done. First time I come up next to him (40mph roll), downshift to third just to make some noise, he dumps it and takes off :confused: So I speed up to catch back up with him...this time I was ready to go, a car pulls in front of me and he dumps it again and takes off. By this time, getting a little confused with the whole thing...so rather than gettting next to him, I pull in behind him...about 3 car lengths back. Drop it down to 2nd to make a lot of noise (35-40mph roll)...he punches it again, this time i follow suit. By the time we had hit 60, I had pulled to within 1/2 car length. Did not get a chance to pass him though, too much traffic. Upon seeing how easily I caught him, he jumped two lanes over and turned down a side street.
Now I know most people do not like truck races, but the reason I bring this one up, is that I had three people in my car :eek: and as many of you know, the Cougars worst enemy is extra weight
