Well tonight I decided to go out and ride around for a change and see if anyone was out at the local cruising area. My wife and I made probably 5 passes down and back looking for something of interest to play with but nothing was showing up. As I was getting ready to leave my wife looks over and tells me there is a white Corvette fixing to pull out of the gas station to our right. I head on down to the turn around and sit there to see what direction he was going to turn and how he drove the car taking off to see if he was someone that might be willing to run. Well to say the least he took off like a bat out of hell and I gave chase to finally get my first run with a C6 Corvette. I guess at first this guy must have thought I was just another mustang because he would not look at me so I decided to see if putting my front bumper next to his passenger window (which was down) and hitting it in first gear for him to hear the blower whine would get his attention. :banana: That was all it took to get him to bite.
About a block up the road we come to a red light with me still in the right lane and him in the left behind the car that was right next to me. Light turns green and I proceed to take off slow to let the other car get a good ways ahead. By the time I shifted into second the other car was a long ways up there and the Vette owner went WOT from about a car behind me. As soon as I saw his lights lift I layed into it as well around 3000rpms in second gear. By the time I caught traction he had made it to my door but it stopped there. I proceeded to put about 2 to 2 1/2 cars on him by the time I hit 65mph. I had to let out due to traffic and was disappointed it was only a short race but overall I was happy a C6 owner finally gave me the time of day. :banana:
