Default Almost got a new C6

Coming back from out weekly car meet, I get behind a new yellow C6. Guy wants to play catch up on the onramp. I stay on his bumper having to lift the throttle so I don't hit him. He flies to the far left, and holds about 70ish. I pull up next to him tachin around 4500-5000 and do a quick pull on him to let him know I am game. I slowed back down, still at 5k rpm's or so, and he won't budge. I pull a few more times to try to get him to bite, and he wouldn't. I guess my louder than **** car scared him. I wanted to see how much I would pull away from a C6. I was kinda pissed. All I got was a smile from the guy.WTF? I guess some ppl don't like to race on the street, sure seemed like he was ready to go on the ramp.

Depends on the driver i raced a a4 stock 05 vette but the driver never really raced before kept all the traction control on and and just floored it on the 3rd honk. After i hit Second gear it was over i pulled him pretty nicely bout 2 cars by the end of 3rd. I was kinda disappointed in the vette but im sure with a better driver and a m6 it would be a totally different race.
