Swapped for an Fbody though.

HERE HAS BEEN A TRAGEDY! I killed the GTO on motor, he watched me disconnect the bottle and made sure the valve was closed. The only race that was even close was the 40-45 roll

first video here is from a 20 roll i shot while driving and same race as 2nd vid just in my car instead of from the side of the road.

2nd vid here is from 20 roll as mentioned above
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19gI4HJSbpQ

3rd is the closest and was 40-45 roll
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsSQOYkLbMU

4th is a dig
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3z0LJpykpg

i have a 2006 Mustang GT with c&l cai, offroad x pipe and a 93 tune from BBR ,the gto has lt's and a tune.

In my bone stock Corvette, I ran an LS2 GTO with LTs and a tune and lost by about half a car from a 60 roll till we shut down around 140. My vette only ran a 13.2@108 best 1/4 mile, so far.

what yr vette? and this guy was just lt's and tune , all i have is o/r x and c&l cai and tuned , i have a zex wet kit on the car but unhooked the bottle with him watching so there would be no bs about me spraying.

I would retract this statement as there are plenty of automatic fbodys putting done 500+ hp through these little junk rearends numbers your almighty rearend wish it could see.

why would i retract a true statement? everyone knows the 7.5 is weak junk, my uncles car makes 404 to the tire on his 99 t/a and has broke 1 already and yes there are plenty of examples of them breaking but no need for me to dig them up.

the rear end is junk. I didn't say everything about them is junk but the rear end is and the g8 interior doesn't impress me at all. Now the ls engines are awesome.
You guys love to twist what i say and make it into something different. READ THE ******* THREAD BEFORE YOU POST **** THAT MAKES NO SENSE OR STOP PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH. You guys seriously act like douche bags when you do that.

next time someone gets the bright idea to put words in my mouth do me a favor and pick your keyboard up with both hands and throw that **** out the window and into the nearest street possible then get in that heavy *** goat and run it the **** over numerous times to make sure its broken.

yet another 5.0 vs GTO/Vette/Fbody argument. Fact is the 5.0 is a decent car, but like all cars if you cant drive you cant win with it. There are plenty of 400 rwhp LS1s running slower than bolt on LT1s for example. Having said that all the 5.0 nutswingers need to get off that 1 that runs 10s with "bolt ons" (weight reduction, bigs/littles, stall, intake, exhaust) when the new camaro is running 10s with a procharger, bigs/littles, blower cam and a muffler delete while having no weight reduction whatsoever

Not all threads, just one were a non GTO owner comes in and tells us the times we run stock are lies because its not in magazines and then we show him proof but he chooses not to believe it.

No one is arguing against the 5.0 not being a decent car. Just that a stock LS2 GTO is a good race for one stock for stock.

just because it is weak junk doesn't mean it wont do it for a bit, but you and every other f body owner on this board knows the 7.5 is junk and much power over stock and its time to spend $2500 for a 12 bolt.
