those wheels on the Z looked cool, but yeah, nothing to do with street racing, not a kill story. Try posting it in general discussion.

Yeah, your 99Z can beat a wrecked Z06. Impressive. Why post up somebody elses wrecked dream car (Z06) just to say you can beat it? I'm sure the owner of the Vette isn't feeling too well about it.

Since you think that thread should have moved, I moved it. Now its just plain gone, instead of being locked.

Might have been funny to you, kind of joking on yourself and your car being slow, but the thread was off-topic, and really doesn't belong in any other forums either. That is probably why it was locked.

People need to lighten up. It was a joke that my car is much slower than that one. People post wrecks all the time on here. Does it suck,YEAH, but it is a car, it can be replaced, and the same type thing is printed daily in news papers. Im sure if any of you were driving by you would have taken your time to rubberneck at the crash and back up traffic just so you could see!

Dont worry though I wont post any more. I was not trying to hurt anyones feelings.
