One fast C4....
A buddy and I took a trip to the annual "Show, Shine & Drag" car show held up in Oxford, Maine today. In addition to being a car show, they also do drag racing throughout the day. Although it's only an 1/8 mile track, it's still pretty cool to watch.
One of the cars was a pro stock C4 vette... It was the fastest car there (except for the dragsters). I managed to get a video of it's first pass with my camera: 5.29 seconds, 130 mph.
Crazy fast...

My current ride is a low mile 96 red vert with the LT4 Grand Sport engine and it is a great car!

Yeah, it was really fugly! It was actually pretty fast, it just didn't look it compared to the vette. I think it was pulling something like 7 second passes.
