Default 2014 GT500 VS H/C/I Ls1 camaro

Ran a 2014 gt500 with a pulley, 3.73 gears, and cold air intake he said 700 rwhp . My car is a 99 hoss m6 with 2.73 gears, we did 3, 40 rolls I was in 1st gear he was in 2nd I won by a car to a car and a half. How is this possible? I know that he should have mopped me, it was probably a traction issue for him, but im still pumped. I have no video or proof.

No, he was racing. We only went to about 120. I have drag radials, and he was on the stock tires that came with the car, but after riding in it the cobra it would for sure beat me with a set of tires.

Lol you're right. A 125-126mph car stock, adding 70+ish whp, shouldn't beat a poorly set up H/C car that probably traps 122mph. Smh.



But that's none of my business.

I can't either! Maybe it has a baby cam why its not such a dog lol!
But a 14 GT500 are impressive but will lose to a HCI fbody at the track with the stock tires on it vs slicks on the fbody!

I highly doubt its trapping 122 with a 2.73 gear
