Me vs 427 whp GTO, Dinan Stage 2 M3 & LT1 C4 Corvette Been entirely too lazy to fix my wiring issue throwing all kinds of codes causing the car to run like dookie... Turns out it just needed a new o2 sensor pigtail.
Long gears still blow dogs for dimes, although I thought the M3 would put up a much better fight.

That first race was a bad idea starting in second, I thought I bit off more than I could chew but finally VTEC kicked in and I started pulling!
I was going to put it in 4th vs the GTO but we were coming up on that car, I don't like racing past innocent folk.

NO FAIR... You won! 
Nice... and another good video, like always(even at night). Ya know... you need to work on reaching out to several other "video makers" here and try to teach them how to turn down the suck!

great video, great races yet again! As far as needing more gear, I'll be the first to throw out the comment that you going from 3.23 to 3.73 or 4.11 won't help you alot from a roll like that. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't help much at all honestly. I know every one is going to scream about how huge a difference it makes but on a LS engine it truly only helps you from digs n low rolls. quick, high revving 3 and 4 valve ford mod motors benefit from it, but stock based LS engines just don't seem to rev fast enough to justify it. Even my 402 that revs from idle to redline in a split second didn't really pick up anything with my gear change. Sure, it felt faster, but we aren't racing fart can'ed Vtec stock hondas: seat of pants means nothing, numbers tell the tale.
