pulled on a c5 wtf???

alright dont spam because i just want some opinions

i went to meet my buddies at mcdonalds before going home and they set me up a race with a corvette c5 the driver said roughly 350 horse

well were alot of people race is the bridge from broadway in iowa to the highway in nebraska and we did a 40 roll

when we raced i like instantly pulled like a car and was still gradually pulling on him until about 80-100 when he took me over and put 3 cars on me

on the way back getting on the onramp it was kindof wet and we barely got traction but i8 got more and stomped him

its about 1/2 mile stretch but i know the win was faulty i am just wondering if i shouldve pulled on him that hard from a 40 roll

i understand that he stomped me in the upper mph range but y did i take off so good???

my powerband own his or something??

i dont think so man, the vette is older and is most likely not putting down 350 anymore, its heavier, and probably wasnt it its powerband, all adds up

so you're saying you pulled on a powerful rwd car when it was wet out. That proves nothing and is stupid.

Give the guy a break, with stage 2 and a little luck I believe its possible he could've jumped on the C5 if only for a few seconds.

for some reason it was only wet on the onramp.... it might have sprinkled that day but i know it didnt rain

the rest of the road that we raced was dry... cold but dry... i have no idea y the onramp was wet though

i understand thats how i took him the second time... i was just wondering how i jumped on him the first time
