Default turbo C6 vs me with vid

I was at a dealership today looking at the Raptors because I want one bad lol I was just bs'ing about my car with the sales man when this c6 was leaving. The sales guy wanted to set me up a race bad so he told the guy to run me because I'm supercharged. The guy in the vette says cool I'm turbo so we leave for the hwy.

We get on the fwy fast and I tail him pretty good. When I pull next to him he gave me the thumbs up and said nice car. I wasn't sure if he knew what a 3 honk was so we paced each other for a few seconds waiting for each other to go. We get on it at the same time and I put my rear at it nose then he starts to creep on me and passes at about 120. I wish we could have gotten a run at slower speeds but I'll take what I can get.

The vid isn't thay great but it starts right when we both jump on it because my wife was trying to pull her phone out lol

No problem, it auto updated it in the reply.

I've only seen a few of the F150 raptors around, nice trucks. As for the Banshee, it might be old but it's far better than the overpriced heavy turds being released now, and it's a 2 stroke (only quad I'd ever own) so it's a win-win

If the mustang put an instant car on the vette and the vette then made up that car then started hauling away all within a 75-120mph roll that isn't necessarily hanging... once that vette caught traction it was probably running away by the sound on iy

Getting the hit makes a difference for sure. It sounds like the OP did extremely well though considering his opponent!

Good run, man!
