I'll show him next time....

[Scoped_GST]

So I'm coming home from Carls Jun. and red Z06 with black polished lip wheels and LOUD exhaust turns in front of me. He guns it into the next lane and I kinda pull up besides him. He gives me a smile, and I give him back one thats even bigger. Anyhow, fate has it that we both end up at a red light at a straight road . We both know that it has to be done, so when it turns green, he doesnt even launch, I launch, and before i get into second gear, hes already at least 3 car lengths ahead of me. By the time I hit third it was 2 buslengths or so. We keep on goin on the same road and I slowly pull up besides him and he slows down and gives me a honk. I guess that meant for me to honk it off (from 35 or so), so I did just that. Thrid honk and I start accelerating and he just flat peels out with his rear end whipping to the right and ones he regains traction just takes off and shuts down about 3-4 buslengths ahead with a nicely sized puff of fire from his exhaust. Before I could catch up and ask him what he had done to his Z06, he had turned into another street, and I just went home smiling with cold fries and chicken sandwiches cause I have missed my turn by a LOT. But, I suppose it was worth it i guess...those Z06's - that was a close one, but next time he wont be so lucky! .

With 4 grand worth of mods you can get your car to run in the 12s. Then you'll have a chance

lol yeah next time for sure man. But its always fun to watch a fast car kick your ass.

i spent 11,500 and am running 12.70's...

5.0's respond so well to mods its not even funny

[crunchymilk55]

11.5k into a DSM would be quick as shit!

5.0's do respond really well though, as do dsm's.

Nice man, a very worthy death. I love Z06's, I'd be ever so happy to let one wax me.

I still liked the time I raced that Viper with the blower in it. It was so loud, I couldnt hear my car redlining it or anything. But getting killed by cars that have twice your HP or so is an honor.

z06's are awesome, man I want to race one just for fun to see those things take off. I always see them when I'm with friends or in my truck. I was with some friends gettin' ready to go off roadin' and there was a blue z06 with a super charger, man that thing took off so fast. It was great! Got a question: A friend of mine has a 2000-2003 Mustang GT (don't remember exact year) but he got headers, full exhaust, and off-road xpipe with gutted cats and ran a 13.7 on street tires. He now has some drag radials (street legal) and a 125 wet shot, I was just wondering what he would run. I'm guessing 12.5? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Man....sorry to hear about your fries and sandwich. That's tough. I know how you feel there buddy. You'll get him next time, and hopefully your food will still be warm when you do. Late...

Nice death. After you do a lot of stuff to your car you will get him next time.

w/o N20: i'd say 13.4


w/N20: is it even tuned for nitrous? like a custom chip or anything? If not then i'd say 13.0, if it IS tuned for it then possibly a 12.8. Just my opinion though.

nice death man i honor you for that one.

[nissanfanatic]

Nice race but I think he's gonna beat you next time too.

[klint02dodge]

[JohnC24]
