Default Nitrous 5.0 vs. LS3 Cammed z28
Pretty much my closest race yet. Nitrous definitely helped give him the hit. Owner was a super cool guy and didn't crash leaving the car meet after.

el oh el. A motor swapped car vs a bolt on car and it still couldn't win. What excuses would you use if a coyote swapped fox body beat a 125 shot camaro hahaha.

This is basically a stock LS1 Camaro, the only difference it the motor, parts in the motor, the suspension and the rear end.

Nothing that would affect the race outcome.

5.Br0s are just slow.

Duh.

LOL at a shot of nitrous being a bolt on. My turbo is a bolt on in that case.

That was an old NA set up from over ten years ago. I haven't been to the track since that car. I am planning on going back soon but haven't found the time or the right day weather wise yet, plus this car is a tad bit scary on full boost.

I haven't driven a "fast" car for over 10 years and then build a 900 hp car that I'm a little nervous of so when I do go to the track I'll probably still be in the 11s.

Didn't know nitrous was counted as a "bolt on"

You can see and imagine all you want but until you do so, keep the keyboard victories coming

Now I've heard it all. Nitrous is now just a "bolt on". The power adder 5.br0 was getting yanked by cam only ls3. It's funny how you bro's cry when the ls3 has a slight weight advantage. And yes the Camaro did win. Are you blind?
