Ok so a kid I know got an lt1 6 speed formula, headers, catback, lt4 hotcam, msd opti, cai, 1le elbow, rebuilt engine.
Now keep in mind he is domesticated rice. Talks a lot of shit and comes up with every excuse he can for why he lost!
He raced a c6 on the highway from a roll and won
Raced another lt1 camaro that was more modded and got his ass handed to him. He had no traction, oh I was pulling on him, my clutch was slipping, blah blah blah.
Beat a stock powerstroke woopie doo...
Has never been to a timed track but somehow knows his car is in the 12's? Is that possible with the given setup?
Oh and he could also beat a gto that runs 11.41????
I'm just. Afraid the kid is gonna get his stupid ass killed, either by one of my buddies (calling everyone out and calling people with nice cars that don't race pussys) or street racing.

Almost forgot, he says my car is shit and all he knows about it is it has a lq4 with a car intake manifold.
That still isn't finished, and he has an even bigger shit talking faggot of a friend with an lt1 they both like to race on Facebook.

Depending on the driver with the goat he should kick the shit out of your so called friend if the gto hooks I heard they don't get good traction. As far as his car being only a hot cam there are bolt on lt1 cars that could beat him. Such as cars with stalls and gears in the rear.

He should easily be in the twelves with those mods, if done correctly. just get him to the track and watch him cry. It will most likely run 14's.

That's the thing we had the street shootout yesterday and he wouldnt do it. Just like he talked so much shit on the goat and wouldn't run him. We told him to go to the track yesterday and if he even hit a 12.99 we would give him money... No show.

First, did you or anyone see him beat the C6. cuz I say his setup couldn't beat it unless whoever was driving the Vette sucked.

This kids mods are good for maybe 320 or 330 to the wheels and with a good hook at a well prepped track could get him in the high 12's so beware of that bet.

Find out what the other guy in the Camaro that beat him runs, add a 10th or two that should give you an idea how fast he really is.

If old boy in the GTO has any driving skills it should be a slaughter from the roll or dig.

Excuses are like assholes and if you notice, you hear alot of them at the dragstrip and dyno days. Why? Because number never lie people do.

We told him the vette wasn't racing, the gto can drive, this kid talks about a different vehicle he races everyday. He has pissed us all off. Especially me because my car is a lt1 car converted and its making me feel like he is giving me a bad rap.

There are tons of hotcam cars in the 12's, thats very possible.

That doesnt mean everything he is saying is true, however...lol he may not have any mods at all and tells everyone he has a ton of shit done to it...ive ran into those guys before :rolleyes:

I've seen the Mods I don't know if he has roller rockers or not... His car sounds like an old chevy truck.

A base pre 2008 C6 or a C6 Z06?
A C6 base only makes 400hp at the flywheel. Its the same engine as a GTO 6.0.
So figure roughly 15% drivetrain lose. Thats ~340rwhp. The Corvette is lighter than a Fbody though.

His setup could run 12s.

I don't know your mods but adding a 100 shot on your car so your sure you got him covered and punk him out at your local hangout, every chance you get. Sooner or later he'll get enough shit from everyone that he'll either shut up or run you. I'd hope for the race, then piledrive his ass.

My car should pile drive his ass anyways when i get the motor put back in. 100 shot should put my car in the 10s

Yeah I know but a built 6.0 > lt1
Mine should be wrapped up in a month or two so we will see what happens against me. But he chickened out on the gto... Won't run it now.

The one that pissed us off is calling the mustang owner a pussy he has an 04 roush that has no mods besides wheels and is in good shape. Looks great autographed by jack himself. And was leaving the track after watching some buddies race met him on the highway and instantly got on Facebook calling him out and a pussy. The mustang ran a 14.39 yesterday rolling off the line

Anyone that talks shit is usually full of shit, Ex, One guy had an Cammed / heads, Turbo LT1, same thing claimed he could beat any ones car, at the Drive in Meets, he would not race, Mine..Supercharged LT, One day while I was tuning at a shop he showed up, He says " Oh there's the Silver Bullet" Wanna Race? I just raced a supercharged cobra and was a waste of my time. He didn't know that I had pulled off the supercharger and he surely would of handed me my ass but I pulled his bluff. I said, Yea lets race for $1.000. There's an ATM across the street and we can hit it on the high way, Run to the top end if you want. Well, he started sputtering like a bad Opti and said, Well the tranny in the car belongs to a friend and I don't want to break it..Ha!!

A hotcam LT1 can be in the 11s with a good driver and a bit of weight reduction. With an average driver full weight, high 12s. With a shitty driver and full weight and a smartass behind the wheel, low 14s.

He probably "beat" the C6 because the C6 was some old guy with his cruise control on :jest:

Look at the big picture, personalities like that will end up either blowing their shit up, wrecking/landing in jail, or just plain losing interest and disappear if they don't die first. Not really worth proving anything to them IMO.

This x10,000 I can think of 10 people easily that I've come across like this. People who are this ignorant obviously aren't really that interested in the passion if they don't even take the time to learn.

Reminds me of a couple guys. One who drove a 99 Alero with stick on hood scoops, and another who had a bone stock '94 Z28 that had an air intake made out of dryer hose and a hardcore miss. The alero wouldn't race me because "he knew he would win"...I havent seen that car or the kid for years now, and I definitely put the '94 in his place when I got him to race. :lol:

Dahh...

Hotcam and headers likely gets him in the high 12s. And I say that with all the confidence that a capitalized, underscored, ITALICIZED: MAYBE... can produce.

How's the tune?

Good enough to beat a car with significantly more CI meat on the hook, vastly superior heads, thus greater horse-power and torque? (like a 75HP/Tq deficit) Soo... I gotta call :bs: on that one.

Otherwise, that's one bad-ass tune for a car with a set of headers and a cam.

But it's possible I guess.

Of course the clock... Now she's a cold blooded, blood-suckin' BIOTCH, who finds great satisfaction in breaking the hearts of those who don't know her and claim to run 12 seconds on her 1/4 mile.

No Slicks? 60' is gonna cost him 2-2.5... and it's a LONG WAY HOME FROM THERE BABY!

But hey... stranger things have happened. But he's gonna chew that clutch to sawdust getting it done. So tell him to save up... The Clock, she gets what's hers.

My opinion...

This "ricers" lt1 will run in the 12's with a good traction, but a decent driver in a gto will beat him everytime, as for the corvette the driver WAS NOT racing he would have beat him, if it was a z06 he would have killed him. To be asking questions like this makes me think your a little intimidated by him, just tell him straight up to prove it or shut up, if he doesnt prove it just say "thats what I thought" he'll get mad and you may want to clock him in the jaw, after that he wont talk so much when your around, and your 6.0 lt1 with a hundred shot might not be enough to get down to 10 sec., put some drag slicks on it and you might pull it off.

I'm estimating low 11's but won't know for sure till I run it. I've got plenty of weight reduction but yet still a safe dd. The main piece of weight reduction I need will be from mwc.

Because all GTO's run 12's right?

I'm not going to mention the gtos Mods but it is for sure 11.41 can beat a whipple Cobra. (Same class)
My car will be n/a and ill be scared to run the gto for money but just to see how I fare against it I will run him.

UPDATE! Now he claims he has 400 rwhp. And has $4000 invested in his car? His car has new bearings and rings and gaskets EVERYTHING ELSE CAME ON THE CAR. he paid $6000 for it with a blown motor.
