Default Ran a blown 05gt

My good friend has a yellow 05gt with a vortec blower and a few bolt ons. He put down around 420rwhp with a mild tune running low boost. His biggest problem is traction since he's running on crappy street tires.


We've run probably 4 times now. From a roll around 20mph I get about a car length, two at most and hold til around 110. From a dig my 4.10 gears eat him up and I jump about a car length and a half right at the start and barely pull him through third until we shut down. Still pretty impressive for the 05gt.

Once he gets some tires we plan to run them again I'll definitely get some video of it!

h/c, bolt ons, 9''. These particular runs were on street tires. I did run him on the draglites, but I didn't post about it because it was obviously a very unfair race lol

good kill, an s197 GT with a poweradder is nothing to mess with. good job on beating him n/a. heads/cam LS1 FTW!
