Default Killed a 2011 Gt500 at the track last night. VID**

Here it is, me vs. a 2011 gt500. we both spun a lil, however he had one hell of a MPH. I had low bottle pressure. was right a 900 and was below 8 at the finish... not bad for an old slowt1

This is the STREET racing & kills section, not track racing damnit!



Kidding, but he obviously needs some seat time (and probably a good tire) to get the best out of that sweet trap. At least he didnt blow the tires off and run a high 12.

yep. ive ran a best of 11.4 and could better that time with the racing fuel i had last night. then no matter what it would have been close still. just have to say my factory shocks with nitto 555rs are killin me. i get lucky and dont spin much once in a blue moon. hence the 11.4 @ 118.8. and btw he had the best et streets with skinnies up front.......crazy thing is he owns FOUR of the 2011 gt 500s. he has a SICK blue one. 10s all day. lol. I need to run slicks and skinnies. all my times are on my heavy *** chrome 10 spokes...

Why would he need four GT500s??

I can see two, but not FOUR!

Maybe a street DD, drag car, drift car, and a road course car? Lol, some people have more money than they know what to do with.

good kill. i hate the roll racing argument. dig races seperate the men from the boys.. takes all the driving skill and car's abilities out of the picture (not talking about the 1100hp 2wd Lambos where it's impracticle).

Lt1s are now probably the most underestimated muscle car, they really have a TON of potential. i think it was just that the ls came out so quickly after the lt was introduced....

Hey Green, is that Ohio Vallley Raceway? I've never ran my car there but I've been there a couple times.
