97 z28 vs. 04 Corvette (VIDS)

So my buddy Kraig calls me and tells me he's got his dad's Vette for a bit and asks if I wanna race. I tell him hells yea! My car is basically stock, and his dad's Vette is most likely all stock, I'm not completely sure though. Both are autos as well.

We decide to first do a 60 roll on the interstate. I do 3 honks and get a slight jump. It wasn't BAD until my car hit 3rd gear, when he basically pulled away. I let off at between 130 and 137, right before my car shifted into 4th. My buddy said he was doin about 140. Sorry for the crappy vid, but the Vettes on the right. Digital camera + 15% tint = not a great video.

A while later, we finally get stopped at a light next to each other. I get the jump, we both spin, and i'm out in front until about 60 mph, where he pulls on me. When I let off, he was about 3 lengths in front of me.

Good runs. That is basically the way it goes when dealing with LS1s good sprinit to 60-80 then it is all LS1. Now go get some mods and close the gap.
