IMPOSSIBLE!!! The only thing that can be that close to a bolt-on LS1 is a stock G8!

But seriously, awesome runs, what were the LS1 excuses this time?

No excuses. I'm sure he'll be in here in a minute to back it up. We both hooked surprisingly well for the temperature and we got in two good, clean runs.

Yeah, you left hard, congrats, but he kinda reeled ya in quick. The roll was better, that's why I like roll racing.

Also, I'm about to drive over there and find out your mods, Fast and Furious style.

I thought the dig was the better race. The only argument we have was when he caught me. He says 110, I say 120. Either way we probably rolled through the traps about the same time. It would have been super close no matter how you slice it.

Nah we dont do excuses. Ive raced Travis after pretty much every mod hes done, the car is a whole new car compared to stock. Good runs tho we both hooked better than we thought we would.

6 speed cars come alive in 3rd and 4th, We die in 3rd. If you notice I was coming back into the power a little bit at the end but it was too little too late.

With anyone else I would have. We did this for comparison purposes. It doesn't really matter who wins.

Now that ive seen the video, it does seem like about 120 for the dig race.

Im confident that Travis car is a 12 second car.

Nice runs. It became very clear from the first video what the problem was. Some interesting things should be coming up in the next month or so.

Now if only someone would list their mods...

Nice runs! A TEP transmission will do ya good. Mine pulls incredible in third and pretty damn hard in 4th too. Enough to beat an 05 - 06 GTO pretty convincingly.
