Was on my way home tonight from a Sunday night at the office. Took the side streets home with the top down!

Approached what seemed to be a 1997-98 white Corvette coupe, with a manual gearbox. Got beside him at the light, the light turn green we then started ahead normally. He them blipped his gas pedal, indicating he wanted to play. I abliged. At the next light we were once again side by side. The light turned green. Neither of use lit any rubber, it was a rolling start. He gunned it, so did I. It was neck and neck until I threw it in second. From second, to third I just kept pulling away.

We came to the next light which was 3 blocks from where we started, again side by side. He smiled, turned and went his way. Good sport!

That was my first victory over something worth talking about

 

Man I sure hope you are joking!!! If you raced a LS1 Vette from a roll, lets just say it would get GROSS!!!

 

sorry but im not familiar w/ vettes. all iknow that there is the ZO6 and the LS1. is that it? as far as model wise? there is no cheesy model? such like the stang v6?

 

Some early LS1 vettes are only capable of mid to high 13 second quarter mile times. Combine that with maybe an apprehensive or unskilled driver and this story can be true.

 

No joke! I was surprised myself. Unskilled driver, something wrong with the 'vette, or both, but it was 1 1/2, to 2 car lengths when it was over.

Not sure if it was an LS1. Not too familiar with vettes. I should say it was the body style right before the one we see today.

My assumption of 1997-98 may be wrong?

 

If it's the previous style before the current one, it's either the 300hp LT1 or 330LT4, definitely possible

?? - 1996 LT1/LT4
1997 - ?? LS1/L5S6

gook kill

 

Nice killed!Most(and i say most)People driver v8 they never believe or in disbelieve a 4banger will pull on they ass!

In street racing anything could happen.


My friend qoute"i got 5.0L what u got?(his stang GT 99 Stock)

Me "2.00 liter "

I pulled on his ass single time.

Again i don't think my S is unbeatable..

Shit happen when it come to street racing.


Miata(FM2)91 stolen
S 02 blk on blk

 

Actually, '95 is the last year the GT used the 5.0. From there, all GT's had the 4.6

 

I know but my friend like to say 5.0 to round it off.

 

That makes since it was an LT1, let's just say if you came across a well driven LS1 6-Speed from a roll, at the end you might not even see the vette!!
