Was it a black one???
If so I seen him while I was in the vette. He heard my car, so he showed off a little. I went behind him but he wouldn't slow down so we could go at it. When he got on it, he spun his tires a bit. When he did that I hit it and pulled right up on him like he was standing still. Not sure. Always a toss up with those cars. Either they sound great and are fast or they are slow.
