The G8's weight is what holding it back.

It was dudes first time at the track, first pass. He only has intake, mid length headers without a tune, and street tires.

I hoped for better but I will just give him credit for trying and coming out with us. The more racers, the better.

Per Car and Driver, September 1998 issue.

Hard top stock Vette ran 13.2 @ 110

dude ran 13.03 @ 108, there might be a 12 sec in there yet.

Samsel's tune only C5 went low 13s @ 110 on run flats. Zach needs a converter.

He should have a tune on there soon. If he get's a converter and nice tire, it will be a fun little street car.

The funny part is that the Mustang GT in that vid runs 13.1s at the track on the regular with 280ish rwhp and full weight. Dude can drive that Mustang.

The Vette and the Stang run a fender off each other on most races with at least a 40hp deficit and weight disadvantage.
