Default Corvette Kill

I haven't raced any Vettes yet untill last Saturday. It wasn't really much of a race though since it started at 50mph. It looked like an 02 or newer though. I'm also not sure if was a Z06 or not either since all I saw was him in my rearview mirror. I was coming home Sat night and I'm not one who starts anything or rolls up on people looking for a race at all cuz I am so anoyed by those people all the time. Espeacially the 4 cyl turbo punks. Anyway I was going about 50mph and just past the Vette not abnormally or anything and he just floors it. I floored it imediately and pulled 2 cars on him right away before he let off. I wasn't sure what to expect but I felt great afterward. I'm sure he was a little surprised.

mmmm, lets see you have an '03 auto and you beat a C6 from a roll of 50mph and you have 3.73's with 406rwhp? How fast were you going when you shut down. I have to admit I've never seen a bolt on 99-04 having 406rwhp , but I guess there is a first for everything. How much psi are you running to get 406rwhp?

He says it might of been a 02, which means it might of been a c5 and i think the c5s had a ls1 not a ls2.

I agree, A C6 is a 12.6 car and it's strong point is a roll race. I think it was a C5.

I am making 415 with boltons/blower/cams. And they are N/A cams at that..

I would not have any fear of racing a C6 from a roll or a stop. Considering that both him and me are putting down more to the wheels than the vette does at the flywheel....

BTW, if he ran a 12.60 with 40x WHP he needs to work on launch etc. 400+ WHP with a 1.8~ 60' is good for a 12.00/11.9x in the 1/4 with a 99-04 (with a stick anyway, auto should not be that much slower if its setup right)
