Default LS1 vs GT500 vs 5.0
Had some fun out in the town! Ran a stock 2010 GT500 with two passengers I think? & a stock 2013 5.0

Great runs! About what I expected with the 5.0. Im surprised the GT500 didnt have you though. Overweight PIGS! lol. Have you switched to a smaller rear tire yet?

Haha thanks man! I think the weight really hurt him there. Pretty sure he had two passengers.. But he said 50-55 is out of his power band

Wow that is one tired gt500 unless he had about 3 200+lb passangers lol A 55 should be a good roll for a stock 500. Regardless your car runs well good kills.

Thanks man ya I don't know.. I thought that would be to. I was in 2nd though while he apparently was in 3rd?? Don't know the gearing for the GT500 but id assume 3rd would be pretty high for 55 mph

GT500 should be in 2nd at 55mph. Maybe bad driver.
