This is totally off topic but im listening to Weezer’s song Pork and Beans right now and the little banana in your post is dancing in perfect time…oh well. But yes, that gear change had a lot in store for me. One sec im staring down the road, next im staring at the SS, back to the road and smelling the stench of being scared shitless. Good times… ---

Good times… You will get use to it…Everytime I shift to 2nd, I expect that now. Banging from 1st to 2nd is a very voilent gear shift and if your not ready for it, it will make you shit yourself… also, those stock tires (the run flats) suck asshole…you need to get rid of them. ---

Yea it really is faster shawn. I ran a 13.6 in the 3k and when I raced travis he made me look retarded in the VR4. Not so in the vette. Im going to guess the vette to be about .5 to .7 faster in the 1/4 then the vr4 was. Stock. ---

Im going to guess the vette to be about .5 to .7 faster in the 1/4 then the vr4 was. Stock. You are going to drive a stock C5 to the 12s? Is this Travis before or after all the shit he fixed? Maybe you got a stock modded C5 like Boostin? 🙂 ---

Also, the only mods the vr4 had was an intake. Exactly the same as the vette. ---

I could put the C5 in the 12’s. I know I could. My buddy ran a 12.9 in his bone stock C5 that weighed 100 pounds more and had street tires. ---

No doubt, the C5 has a better shot at a faster ET but they are very close on average. That was my point. I think this stock C5 in the 12s is almost as funny as the stock LS1/12 second car. ---

the M6 C5’s are capable of 12’s all day with a capable driver of 108-110 traps bone stock…dont believe me, look it up…also, this is for pants party… ![http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/IMG_1052.jpg](http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/IMG_1052.jpg) ![http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/IMG_1063.jpg](http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/IMG_1063.jpg) ---
