C6 goes down

I was driving on College ave. here in town, and I saw a burgandy colored C6 in my mirror. He made his way through traffic to get on my right side, and threw me a rev. I didnt now how fast the C6's are, but I thought, what the hell? I was in 4th, and from what I could tell, his was an auto. After his first rev, I was a little trepedacious about giving him a go. Then he threw another one. I dropped to 2nd, and when he heard that, he hit it, as did I. I pulled hard on him in 2nd, and just a little more in 3rd. I ran third almost all the way out, and he let off. I wish he had kept with it, just so I could gauge how I would do at a higher speed against him. When we let off, his headlights were aproximately at my bumper. A few students in town saw it, and started hootin', and hollerin'. We were coming into a more populated area, so we had to lift. At the light, he told me my car sounded great, but, "dont you wish you were in this thing?' He was joking around, but that still makes me dislike most(not all) Vette owners. I told him his car was awesome, but inside I felt like saying,"I wish I was in it.....that way I could see how my new wheels look from behind." The new C6 looked awesome in person, for those who havent seen one yet. The pictures dont do it justice. I'll start saving up for one now....

THE C6 CAN NEVER LOSE!!!!!!!


j/k good kill

and I agree with you about most new vette owners, it seems like them and porche owners are a different breed sometimes.....:blah:

btw, was looking at your mod list.... you should get a ported driveshaft and some synthetic radiator fluid adds 40hp atleast. :D

Nice Kill. they are pretty cool cars!

Same here! :lol:

Nice kill to the original poster! :thumb:

The c6 dyno around 350-355 rwhp...sounded like a close race

when I get my 06 z06 I'll ask the new c6 guys "don't you wish you were in it?"

I saw my 1st C6 on Sunday morning and my jaw just dropped. The pictures seriously don't do it, you must see the car in person. This guy knew what he was doin, M6, Targa, Navigation screen, awesome color (copperish color) All in all, 1 badass car.

as much as i thought the C6 was going to own all performance wise..i don't think they made the same leaps and bounds as the original ls1 did over the lt1..i hear C6 autos dyno in the 320-330rwhp range :eek: to me thats awful coming from a whole new (supposedly) platform

The ls2 is a pretty crazy engine, wish I had one. I was in the ls2.com forums and a set of lt's made over 30 rwhp on an otherwise stock engine! The stock exhaust must be pretty restrictive.

I just seen a C6 a few days ago and everyones right, the pictures just dont do it any justice. Me and my girl were driving home and in front of me about 4 cars ahead there was a C6, so when we got to a passing lane I floored it so I could catch up and look at it. The guy was driving about 10mph under the speed limit, probably b/c he just picked it up from the dealership :D

You should have said, "Sorry, buddy. My d!ck's not small enough for a Vette."

:D

Especially if he were to follow the info on this site:D www.mattersofsize.com/forum

My first thought after reading your post is that the C6s are faster than I expected. Think about it. A stock 2002 Z28 is no slouch and with your cam, LTs and 4.10's I think you would be pretty well spankin' a stock C5.

If through 2nd and 3rd you just managed to put his nose at your bumper, to me that says the C6 is one fast car for bone stock. And if he's like most vette drivers I've seen, he probably doesn't drive as well as somebody like you who's into it enough to have modded his car. Heck, if you really are a Marine sniper, I'm thinking your coordination and machinery skills prolly ain't so bad :bow:

BTW, I'm sportin' H&K SR9 in 7.62 and a Bushmaster Carbon-15 97S my own self. I'm thinking you sniper guys are all about a 700 bolt action, right? Using a real man's round, 7.62 Nato, not a hopped up .22 Mag :D

Anyway, back to cars. Now my curiosity is up. Must...find...C6....soon Must...show....tailights....before....C6 Z06....shows....up.....

You would be correct MyZ. We shoot a modified Remington 700.

You all seem to know your stuff about guns so could you please recommend a good "self defense" gun that will work well with an ankle holster? Preferably one that will more than likely get the job done with one shot even if I'm not good at shooting. IOW, if I hit my assailant I want it to make them stop their attack. Thanks
