I dont think mine runs better but he has big power mods compared to me, I ran a vr4 with the same mods and he was on race gas I was on 91 and I beat him on the freeway by 2 cars pulling slowly. It just seems weird this camaro in this video has a bigger turbo than me, heads, cam, and weight reduction and at certain points didnt even look that fast racing the stealth, maybe the camaro is still in the tuning stages

I didnt think the Stealth has ever been on full race gas alone. Maybe a couple gallons with a tank.
The Camaro is still pulling it pretty handily, lol. Its not like theyre covering a 3 miles race to decide the winner. The Camaro gets right off the hit against an 11-sec car.
A Camaro that runs in the 10's right out of the box isnt something I would call a pile. But thats me..

saw it on another forum and they said neither car had a horn so they couldn't honk off a good run. The stealth guy said that the camaro owner was going as he ( the stealth) started brake boosting because he thought he was on the gas for the run.....

I'm kind of shocked. I expected the Camaro to smoke the Stealth pretty bad from a roll. Clearly the Camaro won but I just expected it to be more. An 11 second AWD car isn't going to hang with an 11 RWD car from a roll.

Sorry but I expected the LS1 to put 10+ busses on the Stealth.

The stealth was running 20psi on pump gas, two different animals regardless., The Stealth is a 3800lb+ GT car. The camaro is a stipped out go fast car, my money is on the Camaro even if the boost was turned up on the Stealth.
