Default cam only c5 vs supercharged bmw z8

I was just out cruzin a little while ago and I come up to a stoplight and nex to me pulls up a z8 I can hear the car whistling pretty loud so i knew this guy had to be pretty quick since these little beemers come with v8's!
light turns green and I didnt go at first but then I hear the bmw driver just hit it, we went threw 2.5 gears and I got him by a car. so he waves me over towards the freeway and we go from a few 55mph second gear rolls and he would get me by just over a car every time. guy told me he had just under 10psi and from what i noticed he had to be about 60 years old!

mods I had at the time were stock heads (ls1)intake with full straight pipe exhaust, vararam intake and a g5x3 114 cam.
