raced a z28 last night in the wifes 2v GT
Ok so last night I was in the wifes car.(02 GT) I am still looking for me a LS1 car. Any ways I was at a stop light minding my own when a z28 LS1 car pulled up. I look over and was like damn I am going to lose. But to my surprise I hald in there real good. Off the line I pulled about 2 cars and by the end of 4th he was inching around. Really cool guy. He said his car had lid, cat back, and programmer. He said he thought he was going to beat me bad.I told him I thought the same thing. He said he did not start pulling back until about 80.he said at about 100 was when he was starting to go around. I am very impressed with the wifes car. Mods are cold air, clutch, weight reduction, cobra injectors, 3.73, drag radials, tune and short throw.

No doubt your drag radials and gears gave you that 2 car jump. That is tough to come back from. Just like I always say though, it is not always about Hp and torque...Diver mod, Traction, weight and gearing can be just as effective especially from a dig...roll racing is all about Hp though. This type of race removes weight, torque, traction and the driver mode from the equation.

The wife is modding it her way. She looked up headers and said they are not worth the money. Only a few hp gain. She has ordered a x-pipe and a under drive pulleys. I broke the shift on this race so a new will me order soon. We welded it back for know. But I am letting her do all the mods. She is looking at throttle bodys and a intakes for her next big mods. She is doing good in my opinion.

Good kill. I don't think you are going to get flamed. I could run someone in a zr1, but if he drives for **** then it's realistic to beat. Plus like said before your mods definitely help to get you off the line and get some early distance especially if the other guy is spinning a bit..
