Default Z06 vs. Me...

I got smoked likea pack ofKools lastnight...but it was fun. Driving down the road, and a Z06 HAULS *** past me. Light turns red, so we line em' up. he was revving like crazy, and I kind of just sat there feeling really small.....light turns green, and we both start creeping forward...then I punch it, get great traction thru 1st, 2nd, then 3rd...then he got traction....then I saw his taillights. We stopped to talk it over, hepurchased the 05 about 6 months ago, had Kooks heads all the way out the back, simple bolt-ons and a tune. He also was about 22 years old, with a smokin' hot girlfriend. Sorry this post is a little long, but he was telling me he had a terminator before he traded it in. Said the motor was about to blow due to racing, and he could not pass up the zo6.

All in all, it was a good death.

Now, these are the stories I like reading! (going up against something you might actually lose too)

Nice death. If I were in your shoes, I would have raced him, too. (just to see how bad he would pull me)

Good run and props to you for running him and props to him for not being a dick. Well, maybe he was a little bit of a dick for revving at you like that. He has quite a hp advantage in a much lighter car.
