Default 200mph in a C5!!!

I'm sorry if this is a repost, but DAMN this C5 is FAST. I've seen the car on various forums before and believe it's a California Vette with a custom twin intercooled centrif. blower setup. Man-o-man it must be nice!

Yep... that's JBsblownC5 posts on the corvetteforum and corvettekillsotries.com a bunch. He's had that car since new in '98 and modded every damn part of it. It's got a forged motor w/ a vortech kit (I think it's a vortech) w/ everything customized and modified.

The trans is modified w/ G-force 5th and 6th gears allowing him to use them for top end pulls like that. Normally you max out 5th in a C5 and 6th is useless.
