Hello, Mr Stingray...

I was out in the Mustang ,and I watched a late 60's Corvette Stingray move across several lanes and follow me. He pulls up next to me ,and it's a beautiful black Stingray with chrome side pipes and "427" badging .It sounded very nice. We exchanged pleasantries ,then the lights went green... I got a great launch and pulled him by a few cars.I won't say what speeds were reached I think he might have babied his car a bit. We met up again 2 lights later,and exchanged a few smiles and thumbs up. A guy in a Taurus caught up and said the two cars sounded awesome together.....
I don't normally race on the street,but the vette was too much to turn down....

I saw one of those a week ago in a side street, no laker pipes though.

Absolute classics, and I'm a Mustang fan.

Mmmmm, nice

(Of course we don't condone this kind of behaviour.......

It's rare to see such a cool car on the street,and it's even rarer that it's owner wants to play

. Of course I normally drive as if Miss Daisy is riding in the back...

You are right fast95pony. Most guys that own these L88 or more rare 'Vettes won't get out and throw down on them. It is good hear of the skinny block getting the best of the rat motor though.
