Finally my first real race in my goat! A friend of mine just got a 2011 camaro and he thinks it's pretty fast, i told him i would walk him but didn't believe me so today after formation we went out on the highway and lined them up ![Nod](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_nod.gif)
First run: He didn't honk just went
Second run: 50 roll, i gave him the hit and put about 4 cars on him by 120
Third run: 55 roll, I honk it off i get the hit and put a bus on him by 120
We ran a few times with the out come the same![The Judge](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_judge.gif)

that sounds about right. the auto camaro is slow they dyno about as much hp as a stock ls1 puts down and its in a 3800+lb car. Yes it is rated at 400hp but the tune and tranny really suck for performance in that car get a tune and a few more mods and he'll be running with ya. your gto would be better suited racing a stock ls3 6pd ss not that tune lagged l99.

Actually if its the L99 they are turds on the highway. The kickdown is terrible and between shifts are terrible as well, the first mod i would do to that car is an immediate tune(tranny mostly) and put on the rest of the stuff later. My friends G37 pulled 1 1/2-2 cars from 45 to 95-100mph, i know i was driving the L99. If its a V6 the OP beat that is a stout 6 then, lol.

I've been trying to get a g8 gt on base to race but he never wants to, there's a black 5.0 here too but an old civilian owns it, he looks like he's 100 lol

i ask that b/c dealers are known to put 87 octane in the ss cars ( they did in mine when i asked him however i have an ls3) but it effects the L99 in such a way that it reverts to the low octane table and requires a fresh tank of 91 along with fuse pull or a tune to correct it

I only got to race 1 5.7 bolt on GTO that was bolt ons in my G8. I beat him. Then raced a 6.0 GTO with bolt ons. It was dead even really. We bolt had LT's, full exhaust, cold air, tune. At the track I ran better then he did by cutting better 60 fts. I ran 12.6 he ran 12.7s. Then I sprayed it a 75 shot for low 12.1's. ...LOL

most of them do, but some i heard of actually putting 91/93 in them which surprised me. when i test drove a new 5.0 a couple months back i went with the salesman to fill up and he put 87 octane in it as well. i dont know if they fixed the pcm for the L99's for this issue or not but many people out there are driving them not knowing about this

Dyno's have shown the car pick up 15whp just by switching gas in it from 87-91 octane. that is on a stock a PCM no tune added.
