Default Destroyed a Mod'd C5

With my nephew in the car we were heading to a place where people in H-Town wth cars like to gather. While on our way there, a red c5 coupe with Z06 wheels gives a rev. I give the 3 honk start at a 40 roll and we were off to the races. I shifted from 3rd to second and we pulled a little, then to 3rd and we were 2 cars ahead. He had very nice tips and obviious modifications on his car. We found him at the car show and he denied even owning a corvette. We knew it was him by the beanie and the blonde that was with him. Always nice to have a corvette for dinner.

Would rather have the blonde for dinner, personally. Vette would work though.

Excellent replies.

MagikMan - great to hear you kick Z06 butt and especially the pretentious owners at that.

V-Series Tech - I agree completely, the blonde would be quite nice. A ls1tech friend helped me out with the sig pic. I have no idea who the blonde is, but sure would like too.
