Will my Truck Run with older Vetts
I know I stand no chance with a Z06 but what about older models like 98 and older? What do you need to run with one there are so many around here and I want a piece of em! Whats everyone's take?

Re:Will my Truck Run with older Vetts
I'm no horsepower genius but I'm sure it would take a heck of alot of mods to outrun a Vette. The C5's are running around 350 hp and the LT1 ('92-'96)has 300 horses. Lite bodys and decent 0-60 times would make it hard to beat one. Good Luck though!

Vettes are pretty mean little boogers. Your truck can be made a bit meaner though
