Default RAN TWO VETTES ONE KILL ONE HONORABLE DEATH

Cruising to the Sunday am hang out...... top down sun in my face.......

I see three C6 vettes coming up behind me at a goo clip.... there is a slower car in front of me.... not wanting to get caught behind this car I drop to 3rd and gun past it......

as I slow down a Silver Z06 comes past quick and then starts to slow.... I see him drop a gear... I'm still slowing (60ish now) I see him drop yet another gear....

I'm thinking to myself... I should not bother as I know I have no chance.... then I say screw it... for fun.... lets go.. I drop to 3rd he hits it a bit and lets off... then I hit it a bit.... and let off... he goes and I follow..... it was over before I reached the top of 3rd... he was about 4 cars out and pulling more... so I let off. we get side bye side and I tip my cap to him and he simles and gives me a thumbs up. I come to find out the car has H/C/I and makes 570+ to the tire.... that and 700 lbs less... and no wonder he killed me so bad......


Second as I'm on the way out from the hang out... there is a 73 Vette in my rear view for about 10 miles. We get off the same exit and finally catch a light together. I notice the cowl says 454 and he's got chrome side pipes. When the light turns green we both hit it, I spin a bit in first, grab second spin a bit more and by 50mph I'm a 1 1/2 - 2 cars ahead and let off (wide open street but a 30 mph limit). I guess all the smog stuff kills the 454 in the early 70s.



What a great day overall.

I also witnessed a new Super Snake (600 hp version) run a Z06(tune only) and lose by about 2 cars. I was in a GT500 with a 2.8 KB (700+rwhp) as a chase car. Man that was a blast as well.

Now its time to play good husband and father for the day!

Very cool runs. I can't wait for my cam package. I'm dropping hints to the wife for Fathers Day. Something tells me I am going to be sh!t out of luck.

I have to wait til my birthday in August for any kind of goodies for the Vette [:@]
Nice runs Stk. All the Z06 guys around here are 85 years old and never rev over 2000.
I have yet to see the SuperSnake around here either....lucky bastard.
