Talking T/A vs '11 camaro ss vert

On my way to the race track lastnight some dude in a silver camaro ss vert was pacing me for like a 3miles or so. We finally get to where the road opens up pretty good at a red light. When the light turned green rolled out and without warning punches it,so I returned the favor and did the same. He had about a car and half on me and I caught up around 85 or so. Then I proceeded to pace him for sec and that's when I saw his front end raise up and we were off again. This time pulled easily and by 120 it was pretty bad for him. We were both going to the races and we talked and complimented me on my ride. He said his car was bone stock and was surprised that I pulled away like I did.

That's my first kill since I modded the car. I ran one before when I was stock and he pulled me around 90mph...this made me alot happier since on the mustang dyno I only gain 8rwhp and 2 of tq. I guess it's like Dan (mytuner) said "the car made power all the way through the curve".

If its a auto L99, they are very disappointing to say the least especially since its a vert. Good kill OP
