Mods I posted came from the C6 owners mouth "just has the basics intake, tune, midpipe on back.

My car just has jba full exhaust, intake, tune.
No Nitrous
I had an extra passenger filming while the vette didn't have a passenger.
I too expected a better race so idk maybe the tune is **** or something
I asked if he had let off and he said "nah you got me man. Your car has *****."
No hard feelings from the vette owner so I left it at that.

I was also suppose to race his brother who has a ctsv but didn't get the chance to

The Nitrous was pulled off the car and sold to fund forged bottom end build.

Here is the deal. The race makes 0 sense at all. IF it did actually happen like that, that vette was either utterly fucked/driven by Helen Keller/took place on candy mountain. If your proud of it, you should re evaluate your priorities. If I won a race I should have easily lost I wouldn't be happy one bit. I don't know about the rest of you but I will never accept a win if the other car is at about 13% of its potential.

I think its a and c. driver didn't look like Hellen Keller lol
Guy asked me to race not the other way around.
Just figured I'd post it since its one of the very few races I've caught on video.

3217 is the weight for a base C6 so the auto is a little heavier but not getting anywhere close to 3300. My car weighs 3280 with a blower.

LMAO Gas jizzler. I read that and laughed. Insanely immature on my behalf, but it was funny to me.

Either way OP, good kill.

Lol...good find Ohio...honestly, I wasnt even suspecting nitrous on the 5.0, just some good old weight reduction with agressive gearing. That with Vette beeing not tuned and all.

I give a good kill to the op but sorry a lightly modded 5.0 wouldnt hold a candle to an ls3 bolt on vette driven correctly. 5.0 either has some sneaky untold mods or the vette is a turd. if the vette was beaten by an auto c5 it seriously needs a driver or a tuner to look at it
