C5 suprized

Ok,been kinda slow in here so I figured I would post this.Not being one to brag Coming home from work saturday afternoon I see a C5 on my butt as I am getting on the freeway.I was taking it easy(cold engine).So i get in the slow lane and he pulls next to me in the center.I knew he wanted to go.Low and behold there is a long empty straight with no cars ahead for maybe 3/4 of a mile.(rare) We were going about 70mph.I dropped it in fourth.(should of hit 3rd),and nailed it.He hit it too.We stayed pretty even till about 95,then i pulled about 2-3 cars on him as I took it to around 125+.I think I would have beaten him worse if I had put it in 3rd,oh well.He was cool about it.I pulled next to him and rubbed it in a little. .I dont race a lot due to traffic and cops,but this was to tempting.Hope you enjoyed it as I did.

Good kill, but take it easy on the poor cold motor. I never run my car hard until the oil temperature is at least 150˚F
