Black c5 Vette on 75 :)
Heading home last night on 75 a C5 vette came flying up on me at a good mph and he slowed. i went around one car and got into the same lane as him and just as i got into the lane he layed into it . I was in 4th and i was pulling on him and went to switch lanes and he did as well . went into 5 and was still pulling him :o and let out. He proceeded to keep on goin . Wish i could run into him at a streetlight and run him from a stop. Guess he was kinda pissed my little stang was pullin on his Vette:) :D .. I hope hes on the board .If you are then lets go from a decent mph not 75.. Jason :D

A kill is a kill. :D

Were you drafting him...? Do you have gears...or big power mods...?
My reason for asking (forget the fact I have a C5) was every 5-spd stang I ever owned, modded, and raced laid down in the overdrive gear (.68 5th gear if I remember...) |
Yes MiamiDave my car is Modded for a gear i have a 3.73. No i wasnt drafting him i leave that for the circle track;) As you can see in my original post that i couldnt believe that he didnt pull me when i went into 5th. LS1's make alot of mph.....We gotta hook up and run when i come back down to ft laud ill make a trip to miami so you can show me some of the spots down there. I normally head down to the Tower Shops off of University. Take Care. Jason

Let me know...
Yea, give me a hit, the tower's is where I tend to hang before going out on Friday.
Actually, you reminded me of the times when 5.0's with 3.08 rears could hardly hook...3.73's is steep gearing with a .68 5th just about matches the C5 .75 5th gear with 3.45 rear. Hmmm-might have been an automatic also (which in 'vettes' are no slouch-they are even lighter than the 6-speeds and consistent out of the hole)! They come standard with 2.73's and the option is 3.15, but they don't have the high speed gearing like the 6-spd...Good run either way...:) |
Good kill..:D
|
Give you the hit :o :D Come on now. Well go from a stop and a roll . I like to run from a 2nd gear run actually :D But whichever Im down to play. Weither I win or lose , its all in fun. Ill post back up here when i go back down there. I just came back up today from Lauderdale and will be back down in about a week or two. Jason

Good kill. I would really like to run a C5 Convertible. I have ahad a few incounters on the streets with them that have all turned out in my favor, but I would like to run one at the track just to get a real good picture.

What I meant by "hit" was an email! You'll get no breaks from me!!:naughty:
Also, C5 'verts are actually a little bit lighter than the coupes which weigh a lot more due to the solid removable roof and the hatch. Sully might chime in if he knows the weight difference (20-40lbs?) |
