Thumbs up Finally got to race a ls1

since ive had my car i have wanted to race a ls1 figured i could take a exhaust, lid car maybe.
so a friend of mine has a 2000 a4 ls1 and we been talking bout racing for awile. been sure he would take me but wanted to try before i head and camed my car.

so he wanted to go from a 30 roll which didnt matter to me figured it wouldnt make to much of a difference. so we roll out and honk 3 times and pretty much do a dead even hit. 1st-2nd gear he is at my door then i hit third and he pulls about 1 and 3/4 of a car ahead of me and we let off right at the end of my 3rd so 30-100 i loose by almost 2 cars. i was happy about it though

camaro A4 his mods is TUNE, ls6 intake, lid, longtubes, and exhaust

Nice death but dont forget you also have LS2's, LS3's and LS7's to deal with. How about an LSX swap.
