Roasted a modded GT500 A salesmen at my work got a GT500 a few months ago and has been talking all kinds of sh%&.He just got an intake and full exhaust so we had a few runs in front of our shop wendsday.2 runs from a dig and 1 from a 30 roll.First run,we left on three honks and i hooked great and pulled him by like 3-4 cars.Second run i spun quit a bit and got him by like 2 id say(not sure).All dig runs were done to about 90 id say because of lack of road..Third and final run from a roll it was even till about 60 then i just started to pull pretty good.Needless to say he was really embarrased getting beaten infront of the whole shop.Hes a really great guy and i kind-off felt bad for him but hey...Somtimes when you mess with the bull...You get the horns..LSX dumdumdum!!!
He kept telling me before the race that i would have to wait till i got my 427ci to beat him but i guess hes gonna have to do somthing radical to even compete with that...He said he got somthing planned for me..Maybe an upgraded Blower?
But it was all good times and i still (for now) have full reign on my shop..lol

Good kill. I can't believe how many kill stories on GT500's. Are all the drivers idiots. There are a couple at the track with DR's and bolt on's going 11's, so I know they are not all slow.

GT500's are still getting 50k and when they first came out well into the 60s. Definately not a young man's car. Alot of older dudes are buying them up and lets be honest they are not the best drivers when it comes to drag racing. A stock GT500 will run a high 11, but it has to have great traction and the driver mod.
