Default 3 Dead Vette's tonight...

So we had a meet tonight at the Pizza Port in Carlsbad, and after we figured we'd cruise down coast hwy then have some fun on the road. Well, I went up against an 98-02 SS with exhaust, we did a 2nd gear punch from about 55 to 120 and I pulled I think 2 cars. Then I went up against 3 C5 Vette's tonight. one of them was the z51 Vette. I raced all 3 of them about 2 or 3 times each. 2 of them were automatics, the other was a 6 spd. at one point i had 2 vettes(The auto's) on both sides of me, and we went from a 2nd gear 55mph punch, i pulled the Vette on the left by 2 1/2 cars and the one on the right by about a car length. Then I raced the 6 speed from the same gear/mph punch as the other races, and pulled him by a car. Raced all 3 a total of about 7 times and won each time. The races went around 50-55 mph to 110-120mph. Sorry fot the long post.

Yes it was. I was very impressed with my car. Our cameragirl was waaayyy behind us so no video of my runs, but another guy we were with i think has some video of his runs against the Vettes. he has an 01 SOM SS with LT's, ORY, SLP exhaust, short shifter.. he beat them as well.
