Dream race against 2 Italian exotics!

I was driving home from my friends house tonight cruising at 65 no big deal listening to some Metallica, next thing i see in my rear view mirror is somethng exotic with the lights. Sure enough it pulls up next to me a yellow gallardo im like oh yes this should be fun i yell nice car but he cant hear over both of our exhausts he revs twice i smile like hell yes he then points at me, and im like yeah what, well his buddy pulls up on the other side its a ferrari 360, i was surrounded by two italian beauty's. He tells me to take off on the 3rd honk. Were doing 30 coming up on one of the bridges here in charleston, he honks on the 3rd i take off pull both cars by a car link by the top of third i was still ahead of both through 125 before i backed off i was at least a car or 3 ahead of both. We all slowed down, they were impressed with the Z. If i was stock it might have been a diffrent story. Needless to say we got off the highway went to a gas station, looked at each others cars. Now here comes the weird part both guys wanted to drive my car i was happy to oblige if i could drive theres. So for the next 30 minutes i let both take turns driving my car they said the diffrence of the vette is the unbelivable low end torgue. I though both of there cars had some major torque but so diffrent in handling categories. What a great night thought i would share how my friday night went.

a stock z probably would beat it, im running 412 rwhp right now with haltech, cam, long tube headers, tuning, cut outs, I took the nitrous out, cause im getting ready to do the magnusson intercooled, if i had the nitrous it would not even have been a race i would have killed them. I was just honored to drive these fine machines, I would never own one, unless i won the lottery, and it was cool how these guys werent stuck up pricks and just love driving these fine machines.
