Chicken nuggets, large size, is what I ask for. Pull to the next window sir, alright. As I'm waiting for the van in front of me to triple check that they have all of thier food I notice it two cars back, a black GTO. As soon as I get my nuggets I pull over to one of the stalls and wait a for him to pull forward to the next window. We locked eyes and we both know what was going to happen next. Both of us still have paper plates ,this would be a match determined by the driver and nothing else. We exit the parking lot with myself in the lead to an almost instant red light with him still behind me. I give it enough throttle to make sure that we are side by side at the next light. Red goat left, black goat right. The light turns green and we take off at the same speed and almost syncronize our shifts. Needles to say, it wasn't a kill, just a mutual beating. At 120 the cars doing 40 come up really fast and thats where I ended it and took the next corner back to home. These events took place in S. pasadena,CA, If the black GTO I raced reads this, I want to do it again ;)

I personally can't afford to lose tem pounds, however fatty mcfat sitting out in the driveway could. More like 500 pounds would put it right.

Well if you want to get technical about it, Black absoarbs most light, and therefor should be slower as the engine bay will have been heated moreso due to its color absoarbing the most light.

But thats to a microscopic degree.

Other things to varry in, air temp, wind speed, gas in the tank, people and other in the car, transmission, miles on the engine, RPM/gear chosen when starting, amount of throttle given, shift points, reaction time, tire contact patch, tire preassure, shift time, throttle during shifts, engine temperature...etc etc.
