Default Trans Am vs R6

Ran an R6 with exhaust tonight. Rider wasn't very good, he shifted fine but didn't tuck much at all. Trans Am is cammed, geared, stalled 4l80 and 100 shot. It's a turd and can't beat slow 2v's. There's two more videos I'm waiting on my friend to upload then I'll post them. We went 2-1. He got me on the first gear run from 30. He got out on me and grabbed the brakes around 100 when I was coming around him. First race is a second gear roll, second race is a first gear roll, third race is a second gear roll.

Nice win. how come you went to so slow a speed though? 100mph is only a couple seconds of acceleration.

We let out at 120 or so, the bike just kept dropping further the faster we went so their was no reason to stay in it.

Much better videos added, you can easily see what I was talking about when I said he wasn't a great rider.

Yea my car was an M6 a few weeks ago. I'm loving the auto, there's no doubt the car is faster.
