I like how they say nice kill, good job, nice car. And NOBODY comments on how he clearly leaves at 2.25 honks! He doesnt honk the third time til you only see the bumper of the ta!

Might have won reguardless, but maybe the ta wasnt actually racing, and they just posted that section of the tape? LOL

IMO those guys are tard buckets!

As loud as a procharger is......that T/A is definately NOT procharged, you'll never miss the whining sound if it's especially right next you at cruising speed.

Haha he might still have won if he went on 3 honks? Haha that was an *** raping. You're lookin at a TA that would prolly trap 110-115 vs a car that would easily trap 120+, thats why it looked like the TA wasn't trying.

Since the T/A has Low CR 'n running on Low Boost 4-5lbs the results not really surprised me at all

The Trans Am has a built motor, lower compression, blower cam..D1 procharger only at like 4 psi (why I don't know..) with the supporting mods including a higher stall torque converter..etc.. I believe, i'm not sure on everything 100%.

The GT500 has a one step smaller pulley, CAI and some tuning.

With a pulley and tune it should put around 540 to the ground. The GT500 had less than 2K miles on it so its just breaking in.

this was no joke. it was a rematch from a few weeks ago. first time, the TA won because the launch limiter in the GT500 was keeping the throttle blades closed for a bit on the shifts. once that was tuned out, you see the difference. the TA is procharged, but his tune is ultra conservative.
