Default Run in with a new Camaro

Its been a long time since anyone tried to race me. Mostly cause I`m always in my truck. But about a hour ago a new style Camaro came up next to me at a light. He gave the car a rev so i rolled the window down. He gave me props on the car. Said it looked good and most turn heads having the steering wheel on the right side. I said it did. Asked what he had done to the camaro, he said just a intake and wasnt going to really mod it. He then asked if I wanted to give it a run when it went green. There were no cars behind us so I agreed. We were rather even off the line but I didnt launch the car like I would at the track and I`m sure he just eased the clutch also. Hit second and I started to pull away a little then third and pulled more. Was about 2 cars ahead approaching 7k in third. He let out at that point cause i then shot ahead many cars. So I just put it in 4th and coasted. He came up along side and said thanks for the run with a thumbs up. Cool guy, beautiful Camaro. Not sure what model Camaro it was other than a new one with a V8 and a manual. I must admit It felt good. Been a long time since I did something like that. Car felt good for just mild street tuning.
