They were both in 1st gear at 40 and so was I. My car leaves very hard from a roll. We won't know what my car runs untill I run it but I won't even race it untill the shift issue is resolved. I paid big money for this rear end so hopefully it helps.

Once again you back up Redbirds comment you guys fail to forget I pulled the Z that went 11.50@124 by 2 cars also 3 years ago.

I would think the 11.5@124 car botched the run if a slower car beat it. Especially when a stock one of the same car beat you.

A stock c6z will give you fits if the driver is capable and it gets traction

Your whole different animal is like .3 faster and 2 mph right? Atleast goin by your last track times
This would be an awesome run for sure!

And you would be wrong. Because up until the end of 2015, 5.0s either had a 93octane tune, or E85 tune. If they had the E85 tune... thats all they could run. E85. So you are saying they had 2 mods if they had a dedicated E85 tune? Thats 1 mod. Now with the Flex fuel tunes we can run whatever we want and the ECU adjusts. I don't consider fuel choice a "mod". If you want to, then so be it. I run E85, and whoever I race has that choice too... just because they choose to run 93 octane, isn't my problem, and no sense in whining about it after they lose, if they lose.

I agree Aaron. Win or lose it will make a great video for here. Me and Doug have had are fair share of arguments but in person I think we would get along great and have fun.....cars is a hobby and should be all about having fun. I obviously respect his car or I wouldn't Wanna race it so bad. Hell if I can even hang with him I will be happy.

I don't downplay E85. But I sure as hell dont UPplay it like you do. I tell the truth when I say there is not a big noticeable difference on my car between 93 and E85. I have no reason to lie. Why would I? I am not a grudge racer who hides mods... You know what is done to my car.. it is what it is.

And no we are not modded evenly. The only power mods I have on my car is the tune +15ish hp when I run e85... thats it. If I were to put long tube headers, and delete the cats on my car, it wouldn't even be a race. As it is now, it would be a good race. Phil's car moves pretty good. But don't even try to downplay his setup. Full exhaust, no cats, Rockers(which pretty much gives him a different cam... yeah.. more lift), and Cold air setup.

So let's count power mods on our cars:

Me: Tune (1) , E85 (2).. and I will give you the catback even though it is 3rwhp at best, and loss of torque down low with the 3" diameter.

Phil: Long tubes (1), xpipe (2), cat delete (3), CAI (4), 1.85 Rockers (5)

Where are we evenly modded? Hmm... As I have stated before... it DOES take more mods on a 5th gen to beat/keep up with a 5.0... its just the way it is, and has been since 2011.

And again I state.. no hate at all towards Phil's car... its bad as hell, and moves pretty damn good for his mods... but he DOES have more mods than me.

Definitely would Cory. You and Doug both have bad *** cars. Just need to get them put back back together now, I know how that goes. We'll be waiting

Yeah.. E85 is about like... adding a cai to the car. Not a major power adder in any way. I plan on putting my car on the dyno with 93 sometime soon... just have to find the time.

I was listing mods that add power to the car. The drag pack doesn't make a huge difference either(I know people hate speedo vids.. but I use them to gauge different setups on my car from rolls, along with using my torque app for 60-130 times), and I will most likely not even run the skinnies up front when we race. I might run the radials in back simply because there is no way my car will do a low roll on the Invos... and Phil's car has much better traction tires on it than mine.

Then again, I might run it full sausage. I honestly haven't decided yet. My issue right now is finding a good weekend soon where I can drive 3hrs to meet up, get some grub and race. Got a bunch of personal stuff going on right now.

Just asking. I'd definitely run it. Worth it just for the weight reduction IMO. My vote for full sausage lol. Hope you get everything straightened out. I'm sure we'll see this race eventually.
