Default My motorcycle race

I beat a motorcycle . I raced this bike from about 20 mph and he could not pass for nothing, we were doing about 120 and I could tell he was getting pissed, he started tucking his body so low, I think I realy suprised him with the speed and quicknees!
Man this c5 is so much fun!

Marc,
