1999 Camaro vs GT500 My mods:
1999 Z28 M6
Vortech G-Trim on 5psi
38# injectors
Dyno tuned at RMCR
Rest of the car is stock
Made 393 rwhp and 387 rwqt
2007-2009 GT500
Unknown mods
Red with white stripes
Look/Sounded stock
I'm really pissed that I didn't get a video of this race so a story will have to do. Friday night I was at a local cruz spot and spotted a GT500 in the parking lot. So I waited around until he left and I followed him out. Both of us had passengers. I'm in the left lane and as soon as I get even to his car he drops a gear and takes off
it was on!
Race one:
After I catch back up to him I drop the car in third and as soon as I do he hits it, so I hit it and stop his pull. At this point my front bumper was at his door and slowly gaining. He lets out of it before I hit the top of third gear around 5500rpm.
Race two:
After we catch back up again I tried honking this one off. I honked once and he takes off again. Same thing as the first race with him pulling me about half a car.
We took off around 50-55mph I think. After the last raced he slowed down and gave me a thumbs up
cool dude. Wish the races would have lasted longer but I was suprised by the outcome. I thought he was going to walk me pretty good.

Sure it wasn't a Shelby gt instead of a gt500? Had a similar encounter when cruising in my 5.0, came account across a 07ish stang with the snake emblem and after running him found out it was just the Shelby gt with only a small power bump up from base gt.

Thanks man! After researching the cars I found out they weigh around 3900+ lbs and make about 420-430 rwhp stock.
My Vortech kit is non-intercooled. I have a smaller pulley waiting to go on I just need to install my meth kit and get it retuned.
