If you're trying to gauge the results of a race with a C5 over dyno #'s, it won't help you much. Those cars are 400 lbs lighter than an F-body and much more aerodynamic. It takes about 30-40 more rwhp from an F-body to outrun a C5 (assuming both cars have the same transmissions).

Moving this to the proper forum.

6spd vette usually loses 40 to 50rwhp cause of irs crap. An auto im not sure how much but i know you cant powerbrake em with bfg radials on dry pravement very good.

The Vette is a 2004 ls1 blue convertable and we were a tide so I was wondering from that point in time how Im running.
