Car ran like ****! HELP! Today I went to the track. Shitiest day of my life 
Best run...... 15.55! Yes I have an LS1! Car just feels slow as hell, Like it has no power. Pulled 2.2 60's on my nittos just spinning a little bit. My check engine is on for both cats and both o2 censor's are bad, So I know that could contribute but not 2 seconds! Someone please help me figure out whats wrong!!!!

I think it certainly could. Especially if one or both of your cats are partially or completely plugged. Don't even run the car, a clogged cat can make the motor overheat.
You need to fix what you know is already wrong and then repost.

Well I fixed it!
I took my lid off to look at my filter and it turned out my MAF had a bunch of **** on it and was black, So I went to Home Depot and got this stuff someone recomended to me called UD and cleaned it off and now the car runs better than ever!
