Nice vid! I had a chance to go against a C5 a while ago - I had a full exhaust, intake and boost controller - from a 35 roll I pulled on him by about a fender. What speed were you at when you shut down?

stock c5s are slow with just bolt ons. They really need tuning to wake the cars up. Damn I wish I could race a 7 out here in San Diego. I've been here for 3 weeks and people shy off. How come people don't want to race vettes? We're not even that fast... stock.
Hey guys, I had this big argument about gas mileage and the 7. I remember when I roamed around town in mine in DC, I would only get around 180 a tank. He was claiming 350 city driving in san diego. I never saw that kind of mileage out of city driving, 350 was more like highway to me. Was that bad for big city driving? I don't think my car was ever burning that rich. My vette stinks more than it and I get way better mileage in it. Maybe it was just my 7.
