Vettes are slow.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Lol at this thread. Anyone going to Houston next week, can run my ole Vette if they dare..
As for the OP, nice ass car man! If he pulled you 4-5 cars it was def more than bolt ons... Usually takes +100rw to hang with a Vette, so him pulling you I'd guess the car makes 530-560rw which is a bad ass little Pony!

The current owner of his old ugly orange Vette that was pretty quick will be down at Tx2k. Matt is just taking credit for how fast it is now even though the owner has changed some things. You know, racing vicariously. lmao.

Got it. I read it wrong. "His ole Vette" doesn't mean his current Y2K Vette, it means a car he used to own. heh

No never did. Nic said he thinks he knew who it was, but I don't know. He said he thinks its a guy with just full bolt ons. The way he pulled me that's kind of hard to believe. He pulled just as hard at 140 plus also. I was on 287 south bound between Mansfield and Midlothian.
