Default just ran a c6z

Headed to dinner with wife turn out and Z came around bend. We both go same way get on highway. Him behind me I get around traffic he follows. I get over after but he hangs back. Then hit traffic again this time he comes around and nails it and I follow. We clear traffic again. I get around him and play a little. He finally lines up at 60. I see him down shift. I hear one honk and he nails it. I do same but he is out a car from hit. I hold him there till around 150 where he gained another car and I let out. We hit traffic so couldn't get a clean run. I was on street tune of 640whp. Z had some growl but not super loud like cam.

She dont get off till 7. We meeting buddy and his wife. He has a h/c/sc G8.

But Z had wife with him. It was impromptu race. He lives by me so I will watch for him.

And makes me want to DD on my race tune. But I like my 23mpg compared to 10...lol.

I would love a vette, but keep getting the 'how is that practical' conversation. Its eventually going to result in, 'its practial bc I'm making payments on it !!'

I'm sure once I get my 99 SS roller project going I will forget about all this. Too many current priorities. Good thing I still have my youth on my side......for now.

I would kill to own a c6z...

Good run man, hopefully you catch him out again when your on the race tune. And even if not sounds like you guys are still a good race on your other tune. c6z's are so mean up top its ridiculous to watch a car pull that hard at 150+

I was told two different Z run around that are blue. One has some bolt ons and 75 shot. And then other is basically stock with a procharger. I didnt here no bov or anything when he let out of it. So who knowsm people could be talking out their *** also.

Is it a sign of racing addiction when everytime you merge onto the highway you are scanning to see if another car to race is going the same way?
