Killed a Vette! Kind of....
Well I was helping a buddy move today. We stopped off at a sports bar after for some grub. As we were leaving I noticed an orange vette (C5 body style) parked at the end of the lot, next to a 2002ish VW jetta GLI (actually kind of nice looking... for a VW) Well the owners were outside their cars talking. As I went by I couldn't resist putting out a little coal... I couldn't help it! So as I waited to turn out of the parking lot both of them pulled up behind me turning the same direction. We both got on the road and immediately cut all the way to the left to "U" turn on the road to get going the other direction. Mind you I was pulling an empty two place sled trailer as well at this point, and it was raining out. As soon as I got around the corner I clicked her in 4x4 and romped on it! The vette came around the corner sideways and stayed right behind me the whole way and I layed the best and longest line of black smoke I have yet, and it just plastered the vette. The VW? Yeah I think he was back there somewhere... We came up to the next light and the vette was revving his engine and we were just laughing because we were just playing with each other. He obviously had the power advantage, but I had the traction. We messed around the next few lights and he didn't pull on me at all granted he obviously wasn't getting traction, but laying that coal on him for a good 1/8mile was fun as he!!
Even better news... I got home and my new ID xtreme Race tune was waiting in my inbox...
I cant wait to go back and run my 1/4 mile time again, against my buddies tuned VW GTI. I'm gonna get him this time darn it! Even though he cheats...
