Racestories

Here is a few "Killstories" I got from readers of my successfull Corvette-Pictures.com website. Please send me more stories like these.

 

1976 Corvette Stingray vs. 1997 Mustang GT One sunny day, i was cruizing along the local parkway near my house. Another car was nextg to me in the 2nd lane just driving at the speed limit, 50mph. So i saw a chumpstang pull up behind me gooing 50+, and decided he was looking to go. So i speed up and change lanes, and look who pulls up too, the Mustang GT. The light ahead of us turned red right after. GREAT, the chance to dust some chump who thinks hes got speed. The only thing i hate about racing mustangs and rice rockets are that i burn up so much gas when doing so! They usually arent even worth it! So anyway, i look at the guy and give him a little rev. He answers back like i knew he would. Anyway aside from all this my car isntg too decked out, headers, no catalytic converters, performance mufflers, and a nice 410 rear end in it, as opposed to the stock 350) So the light turns green, and i dont even hit the gas at first. This guy burns some rubber and jumps in front. But my mighty 4 barrel carburated 350V8 kicks in when i lay the gas on. Thats the last thing he saw. As soon as i hit the gas, he was nowhere to be found. I didnt even need to keep the pedal down to keep my lead remained. His Mustang Gt had just as much power as my moms jeep grand cherokee.

1999 Corvette Coupe six-speed vs. 2001 Mustang Cobra Here's a really good kill story for you that happened the other night. I have a 1999 Corvette Coupe six-speed with a few modifications like exhaust, intake, and headers...nothing too major, but still very very fast. I was at the local gas station here in Atlanta, and I hear a new tricked out Mustang Cobra (probably a 2001)cruise by with some chrome rims and loud exhaust. I didn't have much better to do, so I got in my Corvette and caught up to him about half a mile down the road. He must have noticed me coming, because I pulled up next to him at about 35 mph and he floored the shit out of it...I also floored it, and was gone in a couple seconds. Ten seconds later, we got to a light, but with traffic in front of us. We asked each other a few questions, and he said his car was "built" and wouldn't tell much else and had a smart ass grin on his face like he was going to dust me. I was like okay, so then I get in front of him, and he follows me through a sidestreet, and then out to a stoplight another main road...now, we are both on the line at a red light, ready to go. At the first sight of green, I am GONE. I didn't even need that great of a launch, and by 3000 RPM in first, I am already a couple car lengths ahead. We proceed to two more red lights, and he gets two more ass kickins off the line. He really didn't have a chance...God it feels good to beat the Cobras. This guy got beat four times in a row. They just don't learn do they ? The funny thing is that they all think that can beat Corvettes...heck, my stock 1986 could have blown this guy away. He did acknowledge his beating though, about a mile down the road. That is rare, especially for a Mustang boy. Anyways, that's the story and there are many more like it, but I will save them for later. Usually people don't try to race me, but just this month, two Boxters, and three Mustangs have been victim. Thanx to Garret

96 Collectors Edition vs. Dodge Mini Van It was a lovely afternoon, I was cruising downtown Minneapolis going to meet a friend for lunch. Little to my suprise I came upon a green Mini Van with two suspicious looking characters sitting low down. I sat patiently behind them until all of a sudden they started to drive eratically, stopping and going etc.... I had about enough of this moronic behavior. Its bad enough I live in a state where driving is somehow a difficult chore. Minivans where just the icing of stupidity. I know I am not the only one who feels these people can't drive. So anyways, I passed them and gave them a look of disgust. I couldn't figure out what the hell was wrong with them. They would stop in the middle of the intersection and look around while holding up traffic. I just figured it was another pinhead. I quickly forgot about it. I pulled up and out in front of the Zelo Rest. off of Nicolet to meet my friend. I have allready forgotten the incident with the minivan. I parked my car along the street, put some money in the meter and went on my merry way. Little to my attention I see my fine feathered friends in the Minivan with their window down staring at me. I looked at them, and went on across the street. They continued to follow me. By this time I was becoming irritable with the situation. Right as I was infront of the Rest. they began bantering some nonsense, so I became confrontational at this point. Seeing as my privacy was being violated. I looked and said what the hell is your problem? They became flustered and suprised me by pulling out their Badges underneath their street clothing. I didn't flinch for a second. I drew the line and gave them the finger out of anger. They must not have liked that I was a good looking white male driving a shiny Corvette with the License plate Disordr on it. The young male officer, who appeared to be a virgin on the force, decided to run out of the Green Mini van and throw me against the wall cutting my neck and scraping my face and ripping my new suit to pieces. Then the other officer realized that his little grasshopper was beating an innocent bystander. Don't be a player hater I said kindly as he flipped me onto the ground repeatedly. They were pretty stupid beating me in front of a crowd of people. The other officer jammed his knee in my leg hyperextending it. Then they decided to strangle me to the point of asphiciation(spelling?). To make this sad story short. They cuffed me, threw me in the back of their Minivan and drove me to the station. Talk about a pile of crap!! They where so sadly shookin up by the incident they didn't realize what they did. The one officer said, allright Mr. Disordr you are going in for Disorderly Conduct. I looked at them and laughed while saying YOU JUST VIOLATED MY CIVAL RIGHTS mother %$#%$^. After they found out that I had no crimanal or driving record, they began to panic. They let me go with a ticket for disorderly conduct. The ticket was dropped and my lawyer sent a demand letter to the City the next day demanding compensation for damages done to his client. To add Icing to this cake, I had a 65 year War hero with no relation to me as my undeniable witness to my travesty. Gee do really think that being a player hater is all its cracked up to be. I guess those two cops learned there lesson not to play with JJ the Jet plane. That which does not kill you only makes you stronger. Thanx to JJ the Jet plane!

My 96 Collector's Edition VS. Brand new M5 I was on my way home on the 394 in MN. To my suprise I see a brand new Blue M5 up a couple of car lengths. I cruised up next to him to laugh at how much he payed for his car and to challenge him to a duel. I look over and there is this arrogant prick and his pamela lee in the drivers seat. I made a motion to him, so he downed his window. I looked at him and politely said, LETS SEE WHAT THAT 80,000 PENIS CAN DO. As his girlfriend snickered at my remark. He started to rev his engine. Then I looked at him in disgust as my 500 ponies (built by Doug Rippie Motorsports) got ready for dusting this chump. He threw the hammer, and with much delight his tires smoked at 60. Just as I expected from a 400 hp 5 Series. Then I hammered it and pulled away in an instant. I was gone for quite some time, then as we approached 155 mph I saw him creeping up on me. I slowed down to about a 140 so I didn't have to wait for guy. He looked at me as if he had a chance. Then I flipped the orange safety switch (by SRR) on my NO2 and gently tapped the button as I felt my car leap above 170 in an instant with my finger flying out the window. Left in the dust, I then again slowed down to mock him some more. He tried racing me again. I just blew him a kiss and pulled off onto the next exit. I have about 20 memorable stories like this. Next time I will tell you a story about a little overpriced honda with this silly logo NSX on it. Mid engine crap. No replacement for displacement. Thanx to JJ the Jet plane!

The real FAST AND THE FURIOUS Vette boy VS. NSX Ever since that stupid unrealistic interpretation of street racer movie appeared on the screen every little toy car has tried to race me. First off, why buy a four cylinder and throw 20 grand in it to get less horsepower than my grandmas Cadi. I know the population is full of morons, but come on. Like all these stupid clones of Honda's. They think their cool or something. I think it is all very annoying. If you can't afford the insurance of a real car, don't buy anything at all. It's almost as annoying as those 20 year old punks that don't have the money for a fast car. They go out and buy some long winded stupid GSX-R rocket bike that makes them think their faster. The only acceptable bikes are Ducati's. I am an American and I think American's are stupid beyond reason. But thats another story. Where was I, OH YEAH, Fast and the Moronic. I think the most Pathetic vehicle of the 90's was the Acura NSX. First of all it is a worthless HONDA. It is as overpriced and underpowered as could be. The Acura boys must be so proud of their MID engine with the fully loaded V-Tech producing a whopping 270hp on a cold day. How much you ask? 80,000 sound about right. That was with all the options. A 3.0 litre V6. I don't care if he put a blower, or a turbo, or whatever aftermarket crap they offer. There is no replacement for displacement. So this is what I saw coming up on my ass. I think to myself great, another moron. I looked at his Jet Black NSX, must of been a 97 or newer. He had aftermarket rims and an annoying exhaust that had pretty chrome tips. Gee you think he wanted to race? To make a long story short, there was a two lane opening on 94. He comes right up next to me. I gently look over and give him a smirk. Then I reach into my back seat and pull out my paintball gun I just happen to have after my outings in the woods. I pointed it at his car and screamed I am going to coat your car in white paint if you fail to outrun me. he he, he freaked out and sped off. This was a really challenge for my Collectors Edit! ion Slammed to the ground 500 hp DRM built vette. NOT. So he wisked away in his windy sounding NSX. It reminded me of a time when I raced a whinny RX7 with that stupid rotary engine. It was pretty much 2 chipemunks on a wheel running trying to spin the wheels on that retarded looking mazda. But thats another story. Anyway's end of story, he lost I covered him with paint and was arrested by the police an hour later at my residence. I plead no contest. It was the greatest day of my life. Maybe they should learn never to mess with JJ the Jet plane. Thanx to JJ the Jet plane!

1985 Corvette vs 1999 Katana 600 Ever since I had my vette, my brother-in-law has wanted to embarrass me with his Mustang GT. So I finally gave in and raced him. In the warm up run (from a rolling start) he lagged behind even with my vette in overdrive. Needless to say, from a dead stop with the overdrive disengaged, I thought I was racing a Taurus wagon. As the Mustang GT's one wheel spun its little heart out, I was pulling hard into 2nd gear. This was no match. So he was determined to beat me by any means. In comes a new bright red 1999 Katana 600. Now its on. 1st gear he jumps me by about 1 full length. 2nd gear I pull past him we stay even through 2nd gear. 3rd gear he jumps foward of me, towards end of 3rd gear the Vette retakes the lead. 4th gear the fully worked Vette is over powering the helpless Katana. I tap out of 4th at around 120 mph before I must engage overdrive. This battle has only begun. Even though beaten in the quarter mile run he still wants more pain, so i'm happy to be of service, from 120 up to 168mph (which is where I was afraid to give it the rest of the throttle) the bike had a good view of my vapor trail. some people just never learn. Thanx to ?

'95 Vette automatic vs Mustang GT 4.6L I have a 95 Polo automaic, very little done to it but of course its a Corvette so it runs good the way it is stock. I live in Winter Haven Florida and was going home from work when at an intersection a little ol' Mustang GT 4.6L pansy decided to jump up on my rear like he was something, the road we were on Highway60 goes through a little town then opens up WIDE into a long straight with two soft s's then another long straight. I had my friend in the car riding shotgun and he says looky behind ya, so i glance back at the dude who had his son (i presume) in the car with him, and said o hell its on now hehe. When we cleared town he jumped out in the left lane and boxed me in and passed me and that did it i let the LT1 fly, i pulled up beside him downed into third at about 100mph left him like nothing, he was back there with black smoke puffin trying to keep up when we hit the s's i took them at over 135 then when we hit the second straight i held it down till about 145 or 50 dont really know i was watchin the road. When i slowed down he was still coming up but about 30 lenghts back lol. I left his hiny behind in the dust. When we hit the stoplight in the next town he wouldnt even look at us, but his kid did hehe. Bet he was saying "But daddy i tought u said u could beat em" and daddy said "shut up ya little tick turd" (off of smokey and the bandit) I used to have a 98 240sx nissan and every body and thier monkey wanted to race me and my 155 whopping horses, but now them pesky little pony boys wont even look at me not even the local s281 saleen. I have beaten EVERY cobra I have run, and I truly enjoy doing so. My car is well known around town as the Vette that isnt afraid to run ya. hehe A turbo set-up is in the works soon, that should help with the people I cant beat yet, being a couple of fast Comaros that frequent the area. But they will be mine soon. To anyone else who gets picked on by faster cars I have some advice, MAKE FRIENDS WITH A GUY WHO BUILDS TURBO CARS. Thanx to Mark

1994 Corvette vs Porsche Boxer S While driving my wife to work one morning, I had my 94' Vette. This Vette is an automatic, but has had some heavy breathing, along with more fuel pressure, more spark to burn it off, and the power module to spin it all even harder. Other modifications include: no mufflers, just straight 2-3/4" pipe, MAF sensor, MAT sensor relocation kit with coolant bypassing the throttle body. It is about a full second faster in the quarter mile than stock. I was being good all the way down the highway for miles, until a 2000 Porsche Boxer S made a point of tearing across the lane to get behind me on a merge to another route. He figured that I was heavier with another person aboard, so he was going to show me what his car could do. When we got onto the main road, I moved over to the high speed lane right away and mingled into traffic. Wouldn't you know, he darted over right behind me up my backside. I was thinking, what are the chances again for this match-up? All of a sudden, the car in front of me moved over to the middle lane. In front of me, I had about a 1/2 mi. of clear road. Disregarding my wife as a passenger, I punched it! Thrown back into the seat, her coffee @ a 45 degree angle, taking the biggest gulp of her life. I didn't let off oh, for about 10 seconds. I didn't look down to see how fast I was going, we were starting to get back into traffic. I had at least 8 car legnths on him, maybe more. I figure we were going in the 135mph range. I slowed down and moved over. When he caught up along side, he looked over at me with a really pissed -off look, like, I spent all this money and look what happened. Blew his doors bigtime. Do you know the strangest thing about this whole thing? My wife understood about the rare match-up and was not mad! PowerSon

1994 Corvette Automatic vs. 2001 Nissan Maxima SE I had just gotten on the highway on my way to work and was doing about 72 mph in the high speed lane. I passed the last exit before I reached the my own turn-off when a 2001 Maxima was up my ass just getting on the highway. I don't tailgate people and leave plenty of room, but as any Corvette owner knows and understands, everyone is either too close or trying to challange you. It doesn't matter wheather it is a 4 cylinder Corolla or a 5.0 Mustang. This guy wanted to go in the worst way. Instead of taken my exit, I stayed on the route because it really opens up. I was just playing with this guy being careful weaving around traffic to a 1/2 mi. opening. I let the guy get real close and then I PUNCHED IT! Away I go leaving this guy in the dust. I was rolling about 5300 rpm @ 150 before I let off, I breaked hard as I was getting back into traffic. I pulled over in the middle lane and let this guy catch up. I rolled down the window and he rolled down his. I said I was doing 150 and had more to go. He said his fuel shuts off @ 140. He also said that he knew he shouldn't have raced a muscle car and I thought, muscle car? He said that thing is awesom! Don't I know it. After that fun, I then realized I late for work and far off my commute. Next time I will tell you about the Porsche Boxer S, while driving my wife to work. I just couldn't resist. PowerSon

Saturn vs. Corvette I have always wanted to race a Corvette. I have a 2001 Saturn SC2 in Corvette Yellow with matching interior. Last Saturday night I had my first chance to really race a vette, I was very excited when he accepted the challenge. We pulled up to the red light and as soon as it turned green all that you saw was a cloud of smoke from our tires. He beat me of course, but I can now say that I have raced a corvette. After the race I pulled up next to him and was going to congratulate him on his win, but before I had a chance he said to me that our race had to be the best race he had in a long time. It was as if he had just given me a key to the city! I was so proud of my Saturn. I will always remember my first race against a corvette. H. Phillips

C5 vs. RX-7 Down in Myrtle Beach over the weekend and I spotted a RX_7 up ahead with a fart pipe hangin out. Well, we decided to follow them down this two way street. Pull up next to them and my friend asked them if it was fast. Of course, they said yes. Asked them if they want to run, but they didn't..So we decided to piss them off. I finally ask the dude if it was all show and no go..He got pissed and was ready to go then. Same time he punched it, I dropped into 1st from 2nd..Wheels broke lose and before I know it, i pulled a couple of car lengths and we ahead of the guy..I wish I could have seen their expression, but they turn not too long afterwards.. Thanx to Y2K253SS and his 2001 C5 at the Forums

C5 vs. Ferrari 360 Modena I was heading North down Beltline towards Coppell. I was between Royal and Hwy 114. I am in the fast lane and I see him. Dark Metallic blue... beautiful!! about 5 cars in front of me. I rush to get up next to him on his right side as we come to a stoplight. I get his attention and ask him about his car. He told me he paid 240 grand for it and also has a Porshe 911 Twin Turbo that he is getting a 780 hp motor put in. The guy mut be rolling in it... Anyways, I ask him... Can we race? he say's yes. we pull away from the light and his lane clears quickly. I have to shoot over to his left in the fast lane to line us up. By this time we are doing about 50 mph and I see him down shift. He jumps out in front about a half a car. I throw my A4 into 3rd and gun it up next to him. As soon as let off to line up he launches it. He instantly jumps on me about half a car, I floor it, and once my powerband kicks in, I am beside him again. It's on. I am in shock that he is not walking away from me as I expected. He was barely pulling on me and I didn't see his rear end until about 120. A car in his lane started coming up fast and the right lane was blocked but I didn't want to let off. Finally I seen him downshift hard,big puff of smoke from the exhaust, almost in panic of rear-ending the car in front of him. I decided to let off and he shot in front of me. I made my point. If a Corvette goes down, we go down fighting.... I got up next to him and the first thing he said is that cars fast. I said thanks but I would trade you any day. He laughed. Cool guy. To be honest, he seemed a little put out about our race. I guess with a 200k price difference he expected to walk away. I don't think so. He wouldn't look over at me after the initial talk after the race. He also kinda looked surprise when I told him I was driving an A4. My mods are 3;15's Vortex Ram Air, Flowmasters, maf screen removed. And a heavy foot.... Look out North Dallas guys, he said his Porshe is Maroon and will have 780 HP. He told me that he shipped it to California and is putting 80k in the engine alone. Thanx to Kid at the Forums

C5 Vs. Eclipse I was on my way to circuit city last night when a mitsubishi eclipse starts riding my door handles and jolting foreward over and over again.Then he takes off and I see flames exiting his fart pipe, not counting the 3 or 4 times his car bottomed out sending sparks my way. I chose not to entertain at first, but when we stopped at the next light together he rolled down his window and asked to race. He advised me that he had a turbo and WILL win by a little. The light turns green but I don't race. he continued to egg me on (It doesn't take much) so we line up doin about 20 mph. I down shift to 2nd and let him have the roll. We took off and after I re-alligned my car from going sideways (about 10 degrees) I pulled him, passed him, and pilled the lengths on him without even power shifting! I made sure to finish off my rice with a taste of hazard lights just to let him know. I'm not quite sure but it must have been at least 10 car lengths. Go home BOY! Pick yur switch! Thanx to DEAD EYE at the forum
