[QUOTE="Mighty Rooster, post: 2306241, member: 30132"] Let me first preface this by saying that the person driving the Mach I seemed to be very cool and that I know that a blown vehicle is more than a match for a N/A car, but...it was fun nonetheless! :) I was exiting the freeway and downshifted a little prematurely next to a Mach 1. I think he may have thought I was 'revving on him' as the term goes, but I was not. He was going to be making a left at the exit but immediately pulled in behind me to make a right. As the light turned green, I proceeded onto the street and rolled into 2nd gear (putting several car lengths between him and I). When we got the the first light, I told him that I had a supercharger and gave him the 'thumbs up'. He motioned down the street indicating that he still wanted to run when the light turned green. I figured he had fair warning (girlfriend in the car and all) so I got ready for the light change. Upon green, I 'puffed' through 1st gear (to about 4.5k RPM) and put it in second. At this point I had about 1/4 car length on him and then the boost came on. As I was still a little loose (gotta love RWHP!) I pulled a car length or two and then hit third. From that point it was academic! He fell behind very quickly and made a u-turn at the first opportunity. Like I said at the beginning of the post. I know that my car was more than a match for his, but it was still a lot of fun for a Sunday evening cruise. Just wanted to share!!!! Hope everyone is having and fun and safe Memorial Day weekend! :) [/QUOTE]
