Agreed: seems like that guy always lets up (or stops filming) when he starts to lose. Always curious how a near stock Mach 1 pulls on a full bolton Mach 1? I'm betting there is mods other then listed involved, especially considering how close the runs with the bolton LS1 went.

the reason he let off in the first vid was due to a bridge and a turn and the second vid same deal and we were doing 130 he had already lost lol. agreed though very strange on how quick it is. It only has 7200miles on it so it is pretty new.

Yep don't run into a Mach 1 with the same mods as you thinking it's gonna hold up. I have raced 3 different Mach 1's. The first one I was bone stock besides lid and a magnaflow muffler and he had intake and full exhaust and I still pulled about 4 cars on him in the 1/4 mile. Not to mention how much harder the ls1 pulls after 100 mph. They have alot of hype on here like mention, but in the real world they need alot more mods than the ls1 car has to keep up or pull.

You just never know what you are going to run into..man. I never go into race with that much confidence..a bolt-on MACH can run pretty healthy..does not take much to get them to run hard..
