Default 2013 5.0 vs bolt on Z28 dig

Last night i was putting some gas in the car and a really nice looking black 5.0 rolls through the gas station and parks on the opposite end where i can't see him. I didn't think much of it so i pull out of the gas station and give it a little rev as i pass the 5.0, the guy must have jumped in his car because he was on my *** approaching the next red light not even a half mile down the road. he gets left lane and i'm in the middle, we give each other a rev so at this point i know hes game. his car sounded nasty by the way! way louder than my lt/ory/magnamouth. when the light turns green i instantly jump out 1-2 cars and gain maybe 1 more car up to 90-100. It was my first run with a 5.0 and i'm pretty damn happy with the way things turned out. obviously traction had something to do with it but regardless, i got him! After the dig run he headed towards the highway so i followed and thats when i grabbed my camera. Unfortunately he would not line up on the highway, he would slow down then nail it as i would pull up on his bumper. The only footage i have is him taking off onto the on ramp. That car sounded nasty

Good kill man! A proper bolt on LS1 can take em down. I've raced two before and won both times, not by much, but still won. Your 3.73s helped you big time!

Nice kill, I had the same result when I raced an 11' 5.0 from a dig.

Just wait..... I can hear the sobs from the Butthurt ford crew already....

Nice kill, man. To bad you did not get a chance to talk to him so you could find out his mods. Sounds as though he at least had an exhaust.

LS1 still getting it done!

With a good driver and strong running car a stock ls1 can edge out a stock 5.0. Expexted kill, nicely done.

Thanks guys, i didn't really expect it because he wasn't stock. I don't think he did either after he followed me into the gas station and got beat. Now I can't wait to get the stall in. Ill upload the video of his exhaust in a few minutes
