He claimed his 60ft to be in the low 1.9's. It's on his YouTube comments, page 17.

60' looked quicker from the video.

EDIT: WSSick beat me to posting the vid.

Irunelevens

Yeah... that doesn't look like a 1.9 60'.

MauriSSio

getting a 2.06 60' time and a 13.9 out of a 99mph trap speed is NOT "driving the *****" out of a car.....then again im not entirely sure what "driving the *****" out entails.

LT/LS Guy

I think his slip read 1.79 and maybe he got confused.

Not really. I'd just like to see some vids, pics, and slips of your car/cars.

Negative DA? Looks like it could dip into low 12's with gears and a tune?

Also, aren't these 35th Anniversaries fully loaded weighing 3,600lbs+?

Looks like GM was mod for mod .2-.3 seconds behind the 2011 5.0(back in 2002 )

BTW, I think most stock LS1's on a tire would run low 13's or slower. This is the F-body unicorn

MauriSSio

theyve gone 12.3's completely bone stock already. Mod for mod, i would say theyre still more than .2-.3 faster.

heres a vid of one running 11.7@119MPH with 4.10s,catback,tune,xpipe on an otherwise stock automatic!! (no headers yet)

or this one 11.8@116 w Tune and drag radials.

If you wanna talk best times (including this questionable one), that video of an LS1 F-body on M/Ts is still .39 behind the best stock 5.0s . Which would be a larger gap with a set of M/Ts as well

IMO what we have here, is overhyped stock 2011GT's, and underestimated bolt-on 2011GT's. it cannot be explained to non-5.0 owners how much a tune fixes the bullcrap factory tune. 45lb-ft improvement at points in the power curve. traction control shut -the hell off, stability control minimized, torque managment deleted, etc.

i make NO excuses for a stock 5.0. they will lose to other cars left and right. but a tuned, bolton will lose only to a very powerful car.

my current power to weight is better than a 2007-2009 stock GT500.

i will only lose to a better car and setup. as it should be. a 4th gen f-body only needs 390ish rwhp to kill my car. less weight means a lot. all of the cammed f-bods should beat a coyote even with bolt ons.

Deuuuce

Btw OP, your GF may like the looks of the SS, but I'll bet she ends up hating it. Poor interior design (overstyled) and lack of amenities, poor outward visibility, etc. Definitely not a chick car.

LT/LS Guy

And what's your point?

MauriSSio

his point is that its more than .2-.3 difference mod for mod.

Irunelevens

Exactly. Even with him using that questionable ringer as a "best" for a "stock" LS1 F-body, they are still further away from each other than he's willing to admit.

That's what she wants, that's what she gets. She has been wanting one since like a year already. Probably will be whooping on the new 5.0 I told her to get a stang since it's a chicks car, she said ewww no!

Ke^in

So you finally admit you were wrong?

And I did a 13.9 run and I wouldn't call it driving the ***** out of the car. I only short shifted once.

i have come to the conclusion that manny man is a closet mustang guy lol! don't fight it bro just let it go! thats all you seem to talk about.

MauriSSio

well, the 2002's are supposed to be the faster F-Bodies. Thats why when people quote best 1/4 times for LS1's they usually use the 2002's for reference.

Deuuuce

lol proof of 12.3 completely bone stock?

Has she sat in one and driven it yet? Be sure to have her drive around a parking lot at the mall/grocery store if she can get past just sitting in it. My gf sat in it and moved on immediately.

Lucky!

My girl drives an 03 v6 stang and its soooooooooo slow! Talk about a chick car! . She doesn't like Camaros, but I'm trying hard to get her in a clean Formula .
