damn gtr killed from a dig mods list. , from a roll the the zl1 stopped the pull but could not gain any ground. would have been very interesting from a 60 roll. Also why does the awd gtr have very different size wheel and tire combos on on the back? Wont that really put alot of stress on the x-case and trans. I know my evo drive train would go boom from doing something like that.

Did that ZL1 (crappy title OP, it's a ZL1 not a last gen LS1) but anyways, did that ZL1 guy really call his car a dig monster?!??! There's isn't a IRS 5th gen concieved that could call itself that!

Mods on my GTR are full exhaust, intakes, injectors, fuel pumps, E85, and tune.

Most all gtr owners run DR on the rears only cause of the tourqe split transfer case. It's actually 100% power to the rear wheels on the launch then transfer the power little by little to the front. I must have over 100 launches with that set up (knock on wood) and all is well so far.

Did you get it AWD tuned? Just curious what you gained in AWHP switching to E85.
Almost bought a used GTR but Wife won't let me spend near 100K unless I sell my race car, snowmobiles, enclosed snowmobile trailer, enclosed car trailer and my truck.

Oh well with taxes going up and up and up from the wonderful government she's probably right.

5th gens with IRS that pull 1.5 second 60' times are rarer then Hondas that pull that time. ALOT rarer. Matter of fact, Jeremy I'm betting you probably know personally most of the 5th gen camaro's that pull sub 1.5 60' times don't you? That's why I was gonna rip on someone claiming there nitrous only 5th gen was a "dig monster" with just tires.

You gotta be ******* stupid to dig race a GTR without slicks.

Zl1 would've won from a higher roll.

b/c 90% of camaro owners run on DRs at track, not on slicks.

With slicks and suspension these cars will 60' very impressive.
