Default c4 vette

on the interstate heading back to my friends house after getting some dinner. i was riding with an 03 mustang gt, and i had a guy riding with me in my car. this black c4 vette with a vanity plate that reads "thewalk" comes flying onto the interstate and swerves accross all three lanes into the fast lane where we're at and cuts my friend in the gt off. i speed up and weeve through some traffic and finally pass the vette, the vette follows me weaving through traffic staying behind me til finally we get to a long stretch of interstate without any cars for at least a mile ahead of us. so he pulls into the lane beside me. we're doing about 85, and he takes off, i wasn't expecting him to take off yet, we weren't even lined up, but he gets out ahead of me about a car and i take off, and reel him in. i pass him and we get up to about 130 before stopping. he is way back in my rear view mirror, my friend waved bye to him as we passed him. for the record, i have i/h/e, and he definately had exhaust, not sure if anything else was done. complete dick tho, so if u ever see him, steer clear.

I had an encounter with a C4. Actually one of my only "staged" races. It was a 1996 Lt4 making 330hp and 340 tq. We ran on a street and only took it up to 90 mph, but I beat him by 2+ cars. It wasn't slow though, I will tell you that much...

Yea, I usually just read these forums but when I saw "tiburons are faster than C4s".....I had to refute that. I have driven my dads C4(1989 vert) and it is not that slow. It's not that fast either, but it is still a nice car.

no doubt it was a great car for it's time. i wouldn't have even raced the guy but he cut my friend off and some vengence needed to take place. my friend in the passenger seat talked me into that for sure. lol. it was fun, only thing nicer than winning is winning to a complete dick.

lmao... I always try to let the rookies learn the hard way... that is with a little some Effexor for the stress... some tylenol for the headache... and some Cortisone for the Carpal Tunnel you'll get trying to make sense with the senseless....


either way... good luck!
