the other day on freeway ran a new Jeep SRT 8. He kept doing fly byes by me and finally when the traffic cleared we ran from 70-120 had him by 6+ car lenghts. He tried another fly bye but he could not catch me. He finally turned off freeway to go on highway 5 blinked his head lights. Fun while it lasted.
Not much but it beats running all the SUV's and trucks that always want to race.

let me first start out by saying nice car... now... the rant..
look at your mods?? are you serious? sometimes "we" get too cocky about what we have, as you would be if an innocent White TrailblazerSS pulled up to you with a stroked LS2 H/C and turboed, with a 3200Vig and AWD? (vids and slips to come)
think you'll pull this one?? lol

my friend owns a shop in TomsRiver, NJ and he builds some pretty quick SUV's, TBSS's SRT8 Jeeps you name it, he's done it to them, just a shame you didn't get a chance to run one of them..
once again nice car, but remember if your C5 was stock that jeep would've door to door on the hwy and out of the hole? you know the result..

I always hate the "Oh, think you're fast, man if you went up against <insert something here> you wouldn't be so cocky" responses. WTF does that have to do with his kill?
Fun run, btw.

i agree there are no what if's in racing, a car/truck/suv wants to play he accepts responsibilityor not fully knowing what the other vehicle has, in this case a very bad move,
awesome kill 99 frc

btw, "quickZ06" does this look familiar?
If you had room to take it up higher you would have pulled him imo, especially if he wasnt pulling anymore.

a race is a race he lost... you know what they say about people living in glass houses?? no need to point something out about someone else's posts when you do the same thing...
