Just raced a Z06 vette...

tonight me and my girl were bered and she suggested we go look for a little bit of fun. so we went driving around went throught some empty parking lots doing donuts etc. on our way out of a newly laid lot i see a black Z06 cruising by. so i pulled out slowly and as soon as i got out i laid it down, bucked a little bit sideways then came straight and came up behind him. ahead i saw that the light had just turned red so i pull up along side him. he was an older guy maybe in his 40's and i rarely see anyone in a vette that actually wants to run so i didn't throw a rev or anything. then all of the sudden he rolls down the window and askes me if i think i have a chance, then revs up. it took me a second to process what he just said ::thinking "a vette actually wants to run?" so i tell him sure. then he askes me what i have done i just gave him a little "hmm" and told him i'll tell him after we go. so he throws another rev at me, so i hit the cut-out and reply with a nice 5k rev. i look over at the light and see it's turning yell so i let her come back down and hold her at 1500. our light goes green and we both slam it almosy simultaniously. i had a 1/2 car lead through 3/4ths of 1st then dropped her to 2nd i heard him churping next to me. went to about a 2 1/4 car and slapped to third. after that i pulled away to a 5-6 car lead. i shut her down at about 95 and slowed down. he pulled up next to me and gave me a thumbs up. he pulls over to a wal-mart parking lot and we both got out looked at each others cars and shot the shit for a while. i was supprised to see that a vette owner actually ran. something you don't usually see on the street. cool guy, i invited him to the corner next week. maybe he'll get a second chance.
