Muscle car envy, or just plain stupid ?

The other day,siting at a 2 lane red light. I'm impatient as hell. Driving, the red hot 98 Ford Taurus s/w. A kid ,in a primered 74 Chevelle pulls up.Stock 350?.Being the impatient *** I am,I roll l across the walkway light. The kid must have thought ,I was deep staging. He wacked his throttle first(homeboy needs to learn accelerator pump tuning).I oozed ahead,through the intersection. Funny as hell.
back when my Duster had the 340 in it (~400hp) some kid in an old Datsun pickup pulls up beside me. He's revving like crazy, the light changes, he launches as hard as he can. The front end jumps up as the truck lurches forward...and stalls. I idle past him L'ing My A O.
