This is true. Ohio's car runs good for what it is and what it has, but the 5.0 isn't gods gift to automotive engineering either.

Go back and read...But since you say that. The 5th gen that made 660whp running 12.6 didn't compare at all. Or the Fodoby's that had cams and 100 shot sure didn't that was there. With there 12 second passes. And the 06 GT) that had 3600 stall C/H nitrious running 12's sure didn't either. Or the Turboed G8 that ran 11.9.

That is same night racing. Not well one time this guy or car did this. Same night with me and them. Funny here most guys say with c/h every fbody should run 10's easy. With the 100 shot should went deep 10's. The GTO should have went 10's from what you said before.

nope it needs only 0 psi to run 10s. And if you count the + 1000ft of DA that day It technically ran 10's with NEGATIVE PSI!!!!

I geuss some people don't understand tuning stuff like shift points. Tweaking stuff. And the aspects of a stock auto not leaving as hard as a manual car.

I don't give a crap about a fifth gen..A fifth gen even makes my car feel light when comparing the two...C'mon man 20lb's of boost and it makes alittle over 800rwhp?

Friend of ours got booted in his Z06 this weekend. Very first pass. 10.9 with tire/tune/cold air only. It had more in it I am sure. Just never got a chance. WHich was kinda messed up cause I got warned they would boot me but never did. Buddies SL65 never got a warning running lower 11's. And of course Lethal Owner ran low 10's with no bar or nothing. Guess who all you are and what not.

Seeing that the car is an auto and takes absolutely no still what so ever to drive, Sorry cant do that! If he was still with a manual I can see your point!

Its a auto with a stall. Same set up in a manual would make about 900whp. Not to nmention stock cams/heads.

Yet an auto also can't leave as hard as a manual without a stall. Which can kill it at the track.

An auto also takes more tuning then a manaul car to shift right. Which is the biggest part of the car right now. Even with a stall it wouldn't be at full potential till that is fixed.

Just so those are not tracking car has been running with the blower for about 3 weeks.

Also nothing to hide. As mentioned earlier I could just mentioned the 10.5 and that was it. But yet I even said I thought was a fluke run.

My 5.0 was a base model with weight reduction. It weighed 3580 with me in it. That weight was also before shedding another 60-75lbs or so. Auto is loaded and is just under 4000lbs with me in it. No weight reduction at all. Even had spare in the back and a 290 piece craftsman tool set.
