Default C5 vs Focus

Man I just smoked some guy in a Vette. I was cruisin my chicks ride when this guy in a pewter Vette pulls up beside me at the light. I revved at him and he laughed, little did he know the outcome. Light turned green, I launched on him, tires chirped, and I pulled like 4 or 5 buses on him. Threw on the flashers, he comes up beside me, yells at me to grow up and get a real car. If he only knew that my Z28 would annihilate his stock auto equipped LS1.

I had one pull on me while I was in my Isuzu pickup. That thing had about 2 cars on me by the time we hit 70. I was pretty impressed.

12.6 isnt bad, it would prob beat a stock C5 but i am pretty certain a mid 12 sec car wouldn't smoke a C5. Did the guy know it was a race, i am guessin he didnt. Little more detail on the mods to the slowcus please. I could drift my mountain bike on a dirt road, does that mean i would pull 20 cars on a C5 auto LS1

Man people are so quick to jump on someone's *** about stupid crap these days.
Oh by the way the focus pulled a KB 03 Cobra and a TT SRT10 last night! That makes 3-0 so far, man who would have known a 500 shot on a stock Focus would do so much?
