Default Toasted a GTP

Put 4 cars on a GTP with a 10# pulley. From a roll I had trouble pulling away, though. Might have put half a car on him 60-100. I think he had more than just a pulley swap going on, I saw a wideband in the car and what appeared to be shorter dogbones.

Had to defend my honor as the quickest W-body in town. Guy was talking about putting 10 cars on the V8 cars. Guess he was wrong.

I know you guys are disappointed. My cameraman was sub par and we didn't get the video. It was funny though, the guy was so cocky he didn't want 3 honks, he gave me the hit. LMAO mistake #1

I'm pretty sure I have the fastest W-body in Northern Louisiana, lol.

Nice kill, like said most Super6 guys think they're hot ****, even when they're completely stock.

lol,, yup your right

Stock. L67s are not much of a fight with a LS4 (down low maybe), but throw on a 3.4 pulley, FWI remove U-bend and maybe a down pipe.. There right at your door.

Yeah, but no one I know mods up here. I need to come to good ol' Red Stick when you're down, and when I get my trans replaced (If it'll ever freakin' go out, lol).

I had one for a little while, it went 13.3 @ 102. The trap speed isn't too impressive but it got to the 1/8 pretty quick.

Thanks. I got that car and some cash for my Camaro. It was modded by the previous owner. Built trans w.3.29 gear LSD, 3.2 pulley, alky injection. Only had it a few months because, at the time, I also had an '04 Monte Carlo and didn't see the point of having 2 w-bodies.

With a headers or DP, tune, and 3.4 pulley I could easily see that car going 12s. Nice car that owns LS4 wbods.

It had headers, TOGs I think and was tuned with Tuner Cat. I know he turned back the timing a little before I got it to be on the safe side. He was trapping 104 with it so, with some drag radials, I'm sure it could have gone 12s.

I feel like I'm reading this wrong. Unless he had outrageous knock with the 3.2, putting a 3.4 on would be slower.
