Blue C5 Z06 (some type of special edition) can't keep up with my E K2

Going home after meeting ChicagoX (great guy by the way) saw this Blue C5 Z06 with white and red center stripes. This guy did a U turn and started to follow me (to obvious that he wanted to play). So we did.... both rolling start at 40mph and i would jump 5 cars and going... i had to stop because of traffic. I never thought that the E55 with K2 would be that much faster. Anyone experience the same please chime in.......?

Nice kill. I bet he had spanked a W210 before and was looking for blood.

It was a pleasure meeting you. Those Kleeman headers were beautiful. And obviously functional.

when i ran my car at the track and ran a 12.69@113mph w/only 400 miles on it and a 2.1 60 ft.time,my frinds c5 zo6 ran a 12.42 @114 mph.later that month we ran on the street w/my 20" hre's.twice from a dead stop up to 110 i had him 2 cars ,three times from a 40 mph roll ,pulled 1-2 cars on him in one gear. last time from a dead stop w/ extra person in my car (three people total)esp off and pre-load converter;thinking extra 200 lbs in back seat would allow me to hook.still spun real bad and he jumped 2 cars on me,at that point it was over as i wasn't going to run him down.point being that faster track times don't always mean faster on the street.
