makes me laugh reading all the butt hurt gm guys in here. All making excuses as to why the camaro lost and why it should have won.. Yes the camaro is heavier, nothing you can do about that. This is what gm gave us to work with.
Some of you guys should just give credit where credit is due...

Ford built a mustang that rolls out.. I think it's about time. I just think its a little funny that now that the 5.0s came out all the Ford fanboys are crawling all over ls1tech, youtube, and who knows where else and act like the mustang has spanking our *** for years.
GM never made a Camaro with forced induction until now, so comparing our cars to the shelbys never made much sense, but now that they have its heavy too, kinda shot itself in the foot a bit as far as straight line performance is concerned. The 5.0 looks good (ok, not all of them) and it performs. Congratulations. Just keep in mind you weren't here a few years ago posting videos of stock 3 valves kicking our 10 year old technology asses.

I havent paid attention much to camaro 5 in recent months, but back when my buddy was looking at 5th gen's we were on there every day.
Mostly a bunch of guys in their 40's and 50's that are convinced their car is the single greatest thing on 4 wheels and can't be told otherwise all convinced that "my midlife crisis is better than yours...."
That being said, there are some great/knowledgable/original guys over there too, but there is defnitely some rampant dooshery.

both cars have air intake restrictors. last year the camaro didn't. but then the camaro won 1 under a caution, and the other when the lead mustang was taken out in an accident.
so far, this year, the camaro's won none, to the mustang's two. both have 21 gallon fuel cells, both have 3.73 rears, the camaro weighs nearly 200 pounds less than the mustang. the camaro uses a bosch ecu, the mustang uses a ford ecu. the mustang is factory built, the camaro isn't.

Whats honestly so bad about LS1tech specifically compared to other car specific fourms (not generic forums, brand specific like honda-tech)?

The only "mass specific car" car forum you posted there was honda-tech (which definitely has had its share of hardcore fanboys - not sure how it is now) The rest are either generic car forums, local forums or just really small.

Since you're curious, its usually the ignorance to anything that is outside of the box in terms of mods or even the mass amount of brand mongering on here. We are all on here cause we are fans of GM, but thinking anything that's not GM is ****, its just ignorance.

lol Exactly what i was thinking. The owner of the boss has nothing to lie about, also i think this is the 2nd ZL1 he's put a hurting on if im not mistaken. I remember him talking about beating one before this video was even up. I have a friend with a normal 5.0 with some mods ill see if i get him to run a ZL1 and ill get a video of the bus.
lol
People on here love to question the info shared when its not to their liking, to help them sleep at night or something.
Im local to these runs, infact i ran a buddies car out on that same rode this sunday. I can guarantee the driver of the BOSS knows what a good or bad driver is.
I like how in the honda vid i posted, they said "Oh but the driver of the boss probably doesn't know how to drive." Now in this vid its the other way around "Pssh the ZL1 needs a driver mod" Same **** different thread in here.
I bet if it was the ZL1 infront no questions would be asked.

Actually he does have a reason to lie since he beat a car that should be faster although I'm not saying that he is but he has yet to post his true Hp.
Sort like how a lot of peolpe question how the ZL1 can beat the GT500 twice? Also since you claim that the driver of the BOSS knows a good driver when he sees one yet his other buddy jumped on here and said ol'boy in the ZL1 can shift for crap.
Really after all we've been through and I didn't make the list, that makes me

What are you talking about? You're the one who's life goal seems to be defending a car you don't even own on the internet, because you're a GM monger. If you're gonna try to be cheeky atleast have some type of facts to back it up, im the last person to accuse of being ignorant.
The boss weighs 500lbs less and makes 50-60whp less.
Give it up already.
Vid is proof, what happened, happened. Deal with it.

But it is ok to compare the mustang to a vette? That would be like saying its not fair to compare the mustang to a camaro because it has less cubic inches...
The 5.0 looks good (ok, not all of them) and it performs. Congratulations. Just keep in mind you weren't here a few years ago posting videos of stock 3 valves kicking our 10 year old technology asses.

Check out other fourms that have kill sections or other sections that could stir things up.
