Nice.

When you say "gave him the jump" do you mean you let him launch first, or you jumped the start?

Just FYI - expect alot of C5 owners to come in here and call BS.

But its completely believable. Good kill.
:beer:

Great kill! Just walked a C5(not ZO6) coming back to work from lunch. Perfect set up. Long straight road from a stoplight. He was rev'ing it and making noise so I just couldn't resist... The C5 guys can call BS all they want - I'll let the car do my talking for me.
Cheers,
Pete

That's completely believable. A standard C5 has less HP than the Cobra and his girlfriend gave away any weight advantage. If it was an automatic, you would walk him really good. With the wrong driver at the wheel, even a Z will fall.

Last weekend my father in-law was driving down Beamer road. Two young guys in a WS6 starting messing with him. He said he couldn't resist, he had to spank'em. He said that they got the jump and by the time he hit 60 mph, they were way behind him. I pick mine up in an hour, I can't wait.

So, to reiterate for our vette-driving browsing friends: even passenger weight - actually you seemed to be carrying more unless the vetter driver was a chubby-chaser- and you gave him the headstart, and still walked him.

Nice kill. Not surprised.

But you know, you gotta watch out, cus the Z06 will put eight car lengths on you in the 1/4. :rollseyes
