Default GTP vs LS1 Z28... want your info guys.

http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/tm.as...e=1&s=#3136492

i used to be a GP owner. and i know what their capable of. but something just doesnt seem right. that ls1 should be running better than a 12.7 with that trap speed and mods. what do yall think?


their seems to be a bad rash of ls1 kills at club.gp lately..... kinda funny

I dont know, I ran a GTP with intake, exhaust, pully, ported blower and polished manifolds and it wasnt pretty. I pretty much embarrassed him from a dig and from a roll. Those cars can be quick, but it seems like it would take more than that to put him in the mid to high 12 second club.

I guess its possible, but maybe the Camaro lied about his mods?

Anything is possible yes, but he said he got beat by a cobra that ran 11.8 in the 1/4 that camaro should have ran around the same times with those mods. A GTP is a fun car for what it is a fast family car, but a muscle car it isn't. Imagine what he'd be running had he built a real car

I said the same thing to myself BUT you have to think of where the info is coming from. Those guys get **** mixed up all the time so it's hard to say if the camaro guy is lying or the GP guy is lying.

Yeah all of about 5 ppl. lol I know there are ppl. there that know a few things i'm J.Brown from over there. But there are many many more that are plain stupid and dont' know what their talking about. And most that know anything about cars don't post on the kill section there if you haven't noticed.
