Default got absolutlely destroyed by a c5 vette

well me and my brother and some friends went out last night looking for a lil trouble...had the the bottle nice and warm and full and was ready to play...well we hop on the interstate to go meet a couple other cars...we are on the interstate and up ahead i see a c5 vette...i fight through traffic and get close to him...hes cruising about 65 and i get behind him in the fast lane...i notice the liscense plate says 4vkilr....i stay about 2 cars back and wait for the slow lane to open up...after about 2-3 min it does...i come out around and he slows down....i pull up on him...and hes an older man probably late 30's....car sounds sick..and he gives me a thumbs up and i give him one back...we slow till about 55....well i give him the sign to honk...1..2...3...and he pulls me like ive never been pulled...im thinking holy ****!!! I stay in it and we shut em down about 130 and hes a couple buslengths up on me...i get up beside him again and i give him this look like WTF and i motion for him to take the exit coming up..i have to talk to this dude!!!!
Well we pull over at a gas station and as soon as soon as we get under the lights i see the massive intercooler on the front!!! TURBO...but im still thinking damn...even a turbo ls1 shouldnt pull me that hard cuz i laid down 450rwhp on a 100 shot!!!
come to find out its a 427 turbo with a t-88 on it!!! HOLY ****!!!! wish i had the video camera because this thing was sick...he said hes hoping it runs 8.90s...hes waiting for a new rear end before it hits the track...it has full suspension/tranny/everything....plus its an 03 black c5 said he has over 100k in it with buying the car brand new

That's insane to have a fully street drivable car that will run 9's or even 8's with a tire... bow down to LSX!!!
