Bolt-on C5 vs 2012 Bolt-on 5.0
So I went to this spot on Thursday that everyone has been talking about. When I get there, I park off to the side to spectate and what not. It wasn't 10 minutes before this guy in his new 5.0 drives over to me and asks if I want to run. I figured what the hell and followed him to the starting line. I didn't have a chance to set my gopro up so I just had my buddy record the race. Sorry for the poor footage.
Anyways. We ran twice, I pulled him by about a car on both runs.

I've heard of guys sitting in the trunk of high hp cars for dynos... but never heard of leaning on cars for traction.
Maybe all the Honda guys in Des Moines wouldn't be able to make traction excuses if 3 skinny guys just hit on their hood...

Come on guys.. catch up with the new car tricks! These days everyone leans on cars.
Maybe those guys should of leaned a bit more so the stang coulda launched harder!
In all honesty, good kill op! I knew it would be a pretty close race

It was a shitty area. I have no idea why anyone races there. I had MTs on and still blew the tires off the whole first gear. My stall wasn't any help either lol.
As for the question about where I started pulling him? Idk what the exact time on the video is, but as soon as I was able to get traction I pulled ahead.
