What's up with my car... C5z06 vs 383 Stroked automatic C5 corvette.
YouTube - C5Z06 vs 383 Stroked C5
What the hell is wrong with my car... Can someone please explain why my car is beating cars that out do it in WHP and WTQ. We have been trying to figure this out for a while. How is it able to beat cars it shouldn't beat? From a dig and a roll? Can't say driver mod because how hard is it to race from a roll. Cant say weight because I weigh 270-280 so that pretty much negates any weight advantage my car gets. I mean wtf, First its Mykel's C6... now this... Its getting so bad that I'm getting accused of lying about my mods.

dyno numbers arent everything. first off, every dyno is different, and every operator is even more different. they can make minor adjustments to how hp is calculated and inflate the numbers, so dont go by that.
also, some cars are strong in a small band range where as others might not peak as high, but might have a wider band. this actually seems to be what happened in the race. you were even at first, then you pulled away, then he hung with you. just seems like your engine is very well balanced.

Let's go again Fri night. I just replaced my TAC Module that malfunctioned before our races 
I'm just saying. Your car is a strong runner though, congrats! BTW, 4 more degrees of timing will be added into the tune so it will be a fair race for Friday. Happy Motoring
