Default H/C LS1 vs. 00 Lightning & 00 GT

So we pull up to the light, gt behind me, lightning next to me. Light goes green I get a little anxious and hit it too hard, the converter spools up and I find myself dead even with the lightning, sideways, spin through all of first, spin through all of second, shifts to 3rd spins then catches traction, downshifts back to second and I'm off, not sure on the count on cars but it was an easy 5-7 cars within a very very short distance, didn't look at the speedo so I'm not sure how fast I was going but I ended up letting off, dunno where the mustang was at this time. So we go through some traffic up ahead and the mustang shows back up, we all do a u-turn, this time the lightning and mustang in front of me. They hit it from a 20 roll or so, I wait a few seconds and get into it a little, catch up to them and find myself at less than half throttle staying at their bumper while they battle it out. The mustang got the lightning to his rear bumper. We all slow down a little then the lightning hits it and puts about a car and a half on the stang before the mustang hits it. So being behind the mustang but in the lightning's lane I hit it and pull in between the mustang and lightning where that 1 1/2 car length was that the lightning had on him and then take off and put them far far far away in my rearview mirror. The lightning is stock, dunno what the mustang had done if anything.

Great run! I woulda hated to see the portion of the race when you were behind the other two. You know some dumbass watchin' woulda said somethin' like..."look at the WS6 getting raped!"

Great kills.

lol ya, well they can say that it doesn't bother me, I ended up racing the lightning again last night, this time we got 3 runs in , 2 from a stop and one from a roll, I video'd the one from a roll kinda. But anyway the guy in the lightning said I had a good 15+ cars on him from a stop and kept pulling.
