As Shardul knows, I found myself between a 1500hp supra and TT Murci not too long ago.

You probably could have given the Gallardo a great run [they trap 118].
As for the Lingenfelter - there are 21 different packages for C6's - 10 and 11 LS2 versus LS3, so it's hard to speculate how that run would go.

What kind of hood was on the C6? That would narrow it down [only a couple of the packages run the stock hood].

Why not try both? haha I have no shame even if I loose with my "sedan". Lambo/vette beats a sedan nothing to brag about. Sedan beat lambo/vette...what's up?

You'd be surprised how well a good running 55 can do sometimes. You do gotta get on the mod bandwagon though. Throw some EC headers and a tune on that car and you'll love it all over again. Totally get the broke thing though, I am on modding hiatus myself.
