GF's TA vs c5 highway
So im on my way back to San Marcos on the highway doing 80 and minding my own business when a bright blue c5 drives up behind me pretty fast. I let him over and get behind him as he takes the fast lane. Eventually we break through of traffic and i pull over in the right lane as i hear him hit it.
I rev matched and dropped it to fourth and pulled back the gap he had on me and put about a car on him till we had to shut it down at 115-120ish. His front bumper was at my back bumper by the end of the pull.
I tried to pull up to him and get another run but traffic started to come up and he wanted to weave in and out of traffic at 95 and i don't do that ****....
Anyway, plenty pleased we finally got all the kinks out of the '99. The car has lid, catback, and a tune on it.

runs pretty well with the tune, brian at Eckart performance here in cedar park is awesome. He got an additional 12 rwhp and 8 torque over a previous tune i had on the cam car.
Oh the C5 HAD to be stock, different exhaust tips but i cant see the GF's car taking anything but a bone stock c5
