All I'm trying to say is that the setup that this SS was running is good for a low 12 run and he's pushing near or over 400rwhp. I just don't see the OP being able to beat him if drivers were equal.

Not taking anything away from the OP, but it's like saying I beat a z06 on the road with my SS... It can happen yeah...but it shouldn't.
then dude what do you think the ls1 would do in the 1/4.AND its not like saying you beat a z06 with you car.like i said that ls1 and 10ss are about even on power to weight .You compared to a z06, is like oprah in the FAT days to halle berry on crack.POWER TO WEIGHT my brother POWER TO WEIGHT.

would you really bet on that,are you really sure,i tell you what go out and find you a 4th gen ls1 a give him a little bit and come back and tell me how bad he beat you,better yet jump on a 300hp fox-body and you will understand about POWER TO WEIGHT the hard way

Those numbers are definitely not correct, especially after just a tune.
He needs a second opinion, they sold him a bridge.

Default street race

This was a street race ya know .all you guys went from defending the ss and move to power to weight ratio lol.he didn't say he beat a zo6 he said a camaro lol . Give him his kill and roll on with it. Its not hard to believe a new ss weighs so much everyone knows the all turn into 5 story high alien robots and fight megatron lol . Good kill it not like both autos had. Dale jr. Behind the wheel lol I've lost races due to miss shifts spinnin we all have and 9 times outta 10 the other driver marked you up as a kill

Funny you mention that. If I remember correctly my last run in with a 4th gen ended in me being about 4-5 CL in front by 140. But yeah, what do I know, I should start running some modded cars built for this ****.

Stock LS1 8.0 in the 1/8? Not gonna happen. But the OP could definitely beat the car in question. Good kill

^^ A simple tune takes care of that problem. If i ever bought an L99 (which I never would) that would be the first mod i'd do no question.

Well how much heavier are those 5th gen? Think I saw somewhere like 400-500lbs? Thats a big difference.

Redfire I'm goin your route 03 cobras in my opinion are the baddest factory cars out.can you find a cobra for around 16 17 figure I would ask a cobra guy. It takes the new ss so long to shift into second because that is when it has to transform if megatron is around lol. Not a big fan of the l99 eithier l99 just doesn't sound as cool as ls1236

Yup! Imonster on here has seen me do it many time. Car hits 2nd, car goes sideways and lets out 2 black lines about 12 feet long. The guy I raced wants a ride in my car cuz he's also seen my car do this many times. I have good tires also. My car just runs like a beast with bolt ons. Wait till I get a 4k stall and a 150 shot.

so you are saying there is no way a stock ls1 can run 12's in the 1/4,i have seen both my buddies run 7.8 when their 02 ss's were brand new,one a4,the other m6.and the car in question he said that his friend's 94 ran 12.8,soooooo if he could beat that that would be a 8.3 or lower in the 1/8th right.
