What's a V?

Vagina? yes, I lost.

Vega, don't think they are still around.

Vette? depends

Voters, dead ones sometimes.

Which gen? Old ones are 400hp. New ones are 580hp. Big difference in performance...

This one seemd pretty new, but may have been a few years old. when did they go to 580 hp? I presume that is BHP, yeah? and how much do them pigs weigh?

Anyway, Gretch had some fun out on the interstate today, and the V driver was pissed.

BTW I have lost many a contest to the vagine.......... in the eternal battle between man and *****, ***** is undefeated......

I messed with a V last year. Two young guys were in the V and I was alone. Lets say the V was 3900 + the 2 guys = approx 4250. I have taken approx 200 lbs of weight out of the GTS (re: lighter seats, sunroof, air pump,spare tire jack & tools, rear muffler deletes, etc) and I was alone. So thats approx 3425 + me at 200lbs = 3625 or 625 lbs less than the V. We went at it from approx 70 - 150. I got the jump on them and they stayed 2 car lengths behind me the whole time. They did look a little surprised that they did not go by me and I was also a little surprised. T
