Totally smoked a C5 Convertible tonight on the way home from work, but I suppose that's not that exciting really. I came up behind him on a secondary road and when we hit a stop sign he turned left toward the freeway and floored it, so I just followed. After about 5 seconds he slowed up and was amazed I was still right on his tail. His passenger swung around really quickly to look at what was behind him - I guess they couldn't believe it. We had to trail a truck for a mile or so to the freeway and then as we went onto the s-shaped on-ramp, he took it really slowly and then when we hit the freeway, he totally hit it. I floored it and pulled two lanes out into the freeway and just walked right past him - I looked down and next thing I saw was 110 on the speedo :v I buttoned off and he came up behind me as I was crusing at about 90 like he was going to challenge again, and then suddenly he just fell back to about 200 yards! I guess he saw the AMG badge

It was probably an auto by the way I walked past it I guess. A little lame, but fun all the same!

 

Nicely done!

 

Question: What is the difference between a Corvette and a Hoover vacuum?

Answer: The location of the dirtbag.

 

......booooo! "modified" Harley joke.

 

 

It's been a while, but still funny.

 

May be wrong but I think the convertible C5 had 2.73:1 gearing.

HHmmmmmm, maybe we should meet????

 

 

Do it! Do it! Someone take a camera, i already call dibs on betting arrangements.

 

To date or to race?

 

OOOOoooh!!! Are you going to take that from him?

 

My money is on the vette, dunno why.

 

My $'s on 55

 

Hmmmm, give Vomit's little C-Class (no pun intended) horsies to mess around with, and ask te same question.

 

Maybe it has something to do with the 11.20s and 10.80s that his cars run. I think we should only race the 1/8th and, to make things fair, he has to put two of those little temporary spare tires on the rears of his car.

 

I think you hit the nail on the head!


There is no fairness in racing. If you accept a losing proposition, odds are, you are toast.

 

Guys, I propose you settle this dispute like men...like the warriors of old.

I propose a classic battle in the vein of Boogaloo Shrimp and Shabadoo, as they did it Breakin' Two. Two men with a cardboard box and a radio. At cost of a few hairs on the top of the head, and saving the fuel for more important things, like Hummer H2 burning.

 

RBrenton88, are H3's included?

 

Yes, most definitely.

"Little C-Class"???? C-Class is actually 178.8 inches long. SL class is 178.5 inches long. So, even if it is "little," it's bigger than yours!!!!

 

Well... either way! :p Take same amount of horsies he has in his Vette into you're "bigger but little(r)" C-class, and ask the same question!
