Default Raced a New Z06

I never initiate anything, honestly! He pulled up on me and was reving, so I said what the heck. We were on a long desolate stretch of road. We were doing about 45 I honked the horn 3 times, on the third honk, we were off. I let up at about 130 and had him by about 2 car lengths. We slowed down and he wanted to go from a dead start, so we turned them around. He honked three times, and jumped right on the honk(cheating??? pretty close) but I still got him on the start and had him by about 3 car lengths to about 135. He followed me to a gas station and asked me what I had. His jaw almost hit the ground when I ssaid it is just a 5.0 bored to a 306. Then he asked what the car weighed, he kind of smiled when I told him 2100 pounds. He was a pretty cool guy, probably mid 40's. Really nice car(I like the new Vettes) but not 2100 pounds hehe. Anyways, just thought I would share my first challenge in my new baby. To all the safety contious out there, 4 lanes, no traffic....straight!!!!!
