Default "raced" a C5

Today on my way home from work. Older guy in a C5 vette behind me. I'm revving it at stop signs and peeling off a little. Turns into 2 lanes and he guns it past me. I do the same and try to keep up but he left me like I was standing still. He smoked the tires when he shifted past me and I'm pretty sure I heard a blow-off valve, but it was hard to hear over the exhaust. I have a stock 5.0 TBI 5 speed haha. I didn't stand a chance but it was fun.

My dad and I almost raced when he still had his "slow" LS1 vette(I don't stand a freakin' chance against the LS6), but then we stopped because both cars are...erm..."slightly" loud and we were right next to a police station...decided the racing was a bad idea.

I stomp on the c5 corvettes. I leave the light so hard with 373 and 315-35-17 drag radials. My lt1 puts the vette owners to shame. I have beaten a few zo6's but its alot closer and they get me on thetop end if we go faster than like 120
