Default 14 GT500 vs 99 Camaro SS turbo

guy claimed the gt500 was stock with a bama tune. I had my car on 17.5 which is right around 790-800.
I feel like the gt500 owner wasn't as "stock" as he was claiming to hold this much ground.

I thought they stopped making the GT500 in 2013?

Oh, and you walked him.

Nice kill, 14 gt500 is a pretty formidable car, but that one I would suspect is not just running a tune.

The 13-14' GT500s run very hard from a roll.

I for one do not think he is stock at all. Or your car is very heavy. My pt88/5.3/auto car hangs with 1000+whp GT500's at the power level you were at.

Here's my dyno video.
I'm not sure how having a Bama tune is "stock", and he was complaining how I had the advantage since he had to honk. That's a new one to me. The next day he called my tuner asking questions about my setup.
I was completely honest with him about my setup.
