Kill Story, Well sort of
So my wife and I were coming home from Delaware(we live in North Little Rock, AR) where we had just purchased my 1999 SS and after a long day of travel, we decided to stop in Knoxville TN for the night. I can't remember which exit, but it looked like a busy strip with lots of hotel possibilties. Anyway, we drove about 1/2 mile down and didn't see anything we liked so we decided to turn around. As we were in the turning lane waiting for our chance in the on coming traffic, this guy in a C5 passes us going the other way and kind of slows down to check out my ride. When we turned around and got to the red light, here is this C5 going about 5mph waiting ahead of us in the right lane. My wife was at the wheel (very good driver in her own right) as the light turned green. As we got up next to him, He's looking back at us and reving it up so my wife shifts down and stands on it just as we get side by side. I've got my window down and I here him tach it up and as he dumps his clutch there is this LOUD hissing sound like air shooting out of an air gun. He goes NOWHERE! I don't no what he blew, but we saw him in the mirror hit his flashers and pull over to the side of the road! We laughed all the way home! I guess that was our first "kill" in the SS. Funny story, thought I would share.
P.S.
My wife got two, yes two speeding tickets on the way home. Don't let her get behind the wheel. She loves the go fast!
See ya'll on the road.
