Default Called out by bolton and geared 05 GT.....plz help

I got called out by this guy, want to know what to expect as far as et and traps.......he is asking me for a charity run with me off the spray.....my mods in sig + drag wheels (but 28" and retuned)


I told you I would tell you my mods.

2005 GT
4.30 Gear
Spec 2 clutch
C&L intake
SCT tuner with brenspeed tune
Pipes Off road h pipe
Bassani mufflers.

I am glad you doubt my car and I am getting to the point where you dont take this as fun. Almost thinking about telling you to forget it. I dont want a heated match just a friendly find out what each other has.



What do you guys think about this?????

I think you'll take him. Those cars don't have much for top end. He may have you through 1st and part of 2nd but you'll catch him rather quickly

Even w/o you spraying you should whoop him. GT's are weak sauce.

With that steep of gear in the GT he stands a decent chance to 100 or so but only if he's on a good tire.

Yeah that is what I was thinking, I am debating whether or not do do a dig or a 50 with him.

Does anyone know what he might trap???

107- maybe as high as 110 depending on driver/track/weather but it all depends because a good driver with that gear will 60' very well and will cause the trap to come down a bit.

Wow, they can pick up 7-10 mph with just intake, gear and h-pipe/catback, and tune......that seems like a lot.
Maybe I have more to worry about than I thought.......

Thanks for the replies

Yeah, they trap around 107ish after the basics (CAI, tune, catback). At least thats what my buddies pulled with those mods (13.1 @ 107 with a 2.1 60' on the stock tires, 3.55 gears) but that was in good weather.

You should have him though, dig and roll. Why such a high roll btw?

This is a ridiculous series of events and thread. Here's how it should have gone down:

Him: Hey man, I've got a bolt-on GT. Want to run off the bottle?

You: Sure, sounds like fun.

*You go out and race from a dig, various rolls, whatever is fun to see the strong and weaker points of each car*

You: Great runs, man.

Him: You, too. Let's do it again sometime.

END OF STORY.
