One fast gst

I was out for a little sunday spin today and ran into a nice looking gst. I noticed the FMIC as he was making his way up behind me so I new that it was not stock. traffic was kind of thick, but he kind of rides my *** slowing and speeding up (trying to make he presence known). Finally he pulls next to me and we get a slight clearing in traffic so I figure what the heck everyone needs a good taste of humble pie every now and again. So I drop it into second and no sooner did I put my foot on the gas he nails it. The size of the turbo was apparent from the lag and sound, but once it got past that slight bit of lag it let out the craziest sound of turbo and squealing tires I have really never had a car pull that hard on me ever. We proceeded to mess around for a few minutes not being able to go to far because of traffic. One time he gave me a good head start and then demonstrated how fast he could catch up to me. The thing was that when he floored it at even 40 or 50 it was compleatly obvious that he had absolutly no control at all. I was actually afraid of him hitting me a few times. I got to talk to the guy for a minute or two during periods of traffic. The only thing that I really could hear was that he ran high 12s and I would say that as crazy fast as this car was it would sound about right. I don't think that I have ever seen a faster FWD car.
