Default Modded LS1 goes down to an RSX???

Whats up guys? I ran into a 2000 Camaro LS1 owner last night at a local hangout....Meet up with the LS1 owner.....I ask whats done but hes not too keen on telling me whats up...Hey thats cool I dont care anyways.....From what I saw and heard he had exhaust, I doubt he was cammed or any of that other bullshit.....fast foward to the race....

We hop onto the highway.....Around 45 we punch it....2nd gear Im even.....3rd I start pulling....by about 120 I had like 4-5 cars on the kid.....We did it again and got the same outcome......

I expected more out of a 5.7Liter torque MONSTER! He gave me props for my 2.0 Liter wrong wheel drive grocery getter, and we went out seperate ways....what a night

I'm sure he got a lucky win against an LS1 and now he wants to milk it for every cent its worth...............My wife just mumbled in the back ground while I was typing "are you sure the RSX wasn't racing the LS1 going in the opposite direction"........... I'd like to see his POS at the drag strip for some "legal" *** whooping fun!!!!!

I noticed you live in CT (looking at your sig in Club RSX). I'm sure there are a few local LS1ers that would be more than happy to run you

Nice kill, and a fast car you have there You do seem to be a little cocky about it, but whatever floats your boat I guess ? If your trapping 113 then you'll beat most bolt on LS1's in roll races. If you hear a loping type of idle you'd better pass

wow- real races are from a stop- and a "almost" stock ls1 will hang real good in a 1/4 race against a 12.7 car. good kill, you deserve it for all the $ you put into your car.

better watch it on that open deck, wouldn't want to pop it. vortech fmu or rising rate fpr? you're the man. i've never seen anybody strap a turbo on a honduh and think they are fast. .

How is that. Most stock LS1's trap around 115. Honestly the 113 mph doesn't make sense if he pulled on an LS1 from a roll. Is that an old number maybe? Not calling B.S. but the numbers don't add up. 3 to 5 cars pulled from a car that traps lower???

just stop- stock ls1 = 102-112mph fwiw and most are 104-106mph.

I meant to say bolt on, whoops. Plenty of M6 cars with full bolt ons trap in the mid to upper teens. The guys numbers do NOT add up. From 45 mph to 120 he is not going to pull 4 to 5 cars. Unless he's trapping 120 or something. Hell, I've raced a bolt on 04 Cobra and he only pulled about 1 to 2 cars on me from similar speeds and he had over 100 hp on me.

Nice kill, I believe it cuz my friend has a RSX. His car is fast stock, I still would destroy him stock on stock, but with a turbo he would be a little bit faster [Depending on setups etc].

I do however think your being a bit cocky, but you did win. I just wouldnt expect all the LS1's you race to go down so easy.
