Default AP1 vs C6 vs E55 AMG

Just kidding, I didn't win...here's what really happened

I was driving with the top down, rolled up next to an E55 AMG. Light turned green and we were both just cruising, i was cruising slightly faster. My car is kinda loud, especially with the V2. All of a sudden he guns it...he starts flying, and i just slowly switch lanes and cruise behind him until i see some wide black car with HID's roaring from behind, it was a C6 Vette. Were at the light...the Vette and the E55 right next to each other with me right behind the E55. We all knew what was gonna happen, kinda. I didn't really launch...i started to roll then kinda did a rolling clutch drop at 6K and bogged just slightly . I didn't know if they were gonna go or not because i couldn't hear there engines revving up or anything. I didn't want to run into the back end of the benz. Anyways, they were gone by the time i finally got going. they maybe had 5-6 cars on me, but we shut down really really early. Well they did. The E55 had about 1-1 1/2 cars on the vette at the end. When i shut down i was only at like 70.

Anyways, I think i coulda been a bit closer if i launched right, the vette driver didn't have his plates yet, so i doubt he knew how to drive the car properly...and the E55 is a bit heavy to say the least. I know I woulda still got killed badly...but not AS bad...maybe a car or two less than it was at the time.

I thought you said you won, sounds like you lost about 5-6 cars by 70 ?

hence the word Sike.

Sike=yeah right.

I didn't win, its more of a joke. maybe i should put almost stock ap1 so people understand i was joking.

anyways, it was a good show, i was like a chase car. haha, after we got rolling, they didn't really pull anymore, but they launched like crazy. freaking torque, i think they just stepped on the gas without a launch.

Sounds about right. Some of the posters on here would claim they won (and have actually claimed that) with similar or less mods than you.
