Here is the corvette time very close but Jay has some work done so it is probally a little slower..........12.55 @110mph All info on Dragtimes.com
Just busting balls but it sure would be fun to run them down the road, maybe a nice doughnut shootouthttp://www.dragtimes.com/Chevrolet-Corvette-Timeslip-5954.html

Yup...must have been looking at older M's. Who knows?? Just busting anyways...I'm a big fan of the M series. Even though I have a Vette!! Love taking the ole traction control off and lighting em up. Maybe a donut shootout would be more fun...although expensive!!

I can attest for Jay's driving ability....Although we only had our cars out once together he drove that little red Corvette quite well. (much better than he drives his boat 
) Anyways....not nocking the Beemer at all but c'mon Kev...unless Jay has a broken arm and can't shift there is no way an m3 is gonna hang with a c6. I'll have to back this wager if one is made. 1/4 mile?? Top speed?? 0-100?? Track?? Whats the bet?? Oh by the way Jays car stock (which it may or may not be ) runs the quarter in 12.6. The M runs 13.5.

Ive been to one of those Fastest Street Car Shootouts in 1993. That would not compare to the BMW vs Vette drag race that these two guys are going to have. Do NOT do this while Im away. I want to see this. Have not seen a good street race in YEARS! We can organize the race on Rt 9 sometime before November. Then we can all stop by a local bar for a victory drink..........on Jay, cause Im afraid he is going to loose the race. Ive been a Chevy fan forever, but the BMW is pretty fast. Besides, Ive never seen Jay drive a car before. (I have seen him drive a boat, thats why Im leanin tward the BMW. Ha Ha Ha Jus Kidding Jay!) I would bet that Frank would put a small wager on this race, even if it is a prissy, ***!y, little BMW. Frank seems to think that Jay is going to do some "backpeddling" on this one. I hope not.
Here's the bet Kev.....if I lose to a BMW, I'll walk my a$$ home from Franks! lol!
It's pretty quick.......not supercharger quick, but pretty fast.......put it this way, I've only had one car "keep up" or knock me back....and he had NITROUS (no fair!).

It sounds like we have a race on our hands boys! If not one, then maybe two races!!! Remember the M3 has over 400 HP and it may be lighter? But, and this is huge, when your talking about 1/2 second or less on the street, that amount of time can be lost spinning you tires off the line. Jays Vette has alot more torque than the M3, so he has to be careful. Its all going to come down to driving. I think that Frank should race you first Jason, just to get you out of the way.(I hope I dont eat those words) Then go for the manly-car! I havent been this excited since Block Island! Actually, after the race(s) are over, I will buy drinks to celebrate whoever wins!!
