Nice kills, I wouldn't have guessed 2 cars with the SS, but anything can happen.

How would you know? Where you THERE or something?




BTW: OP, what does your car weigh with you in it? At 300whp, it's gotta be in the 3400# area, si?
And trans is built to handle 600rwhp, and stage 4 clutch?
I think the transmission differences are what did the other cars in. that's all speculation though; Definitely want to see the vids. Stock stall & geared LS1s, with stock (pretty much) everything, are kind of slouches, sadly. Just from previous experiences, I feel like that V should have had you. You guys only did the one run?

12.9 is a good time for that old girl.

I want to see these videos. Make a youtube account, literally takes no more than 5 minutes, and another 5 minutes to upload the video. Once on youtube, it's there for good.

So, clearly jumped the gun on the SS race, and what was that too, like 60?

He looked like he didn't even gun it, and to be fair, he had two people in the car. A not gutted non racecar at that.

Clearly posted in the first page?

I clicked it, watched it, lulz'd at the LT1 thinking that LS1 even raced him, and now I am awaiting a response.

If you looked in my car at the meet, it has a full interior in it at the moment. Race was to like maybe 80 or so. Didnt really jump. Pulled up to his fender at the 2nd honk and hit it on the third. There was a better race we did right after but no video of it.

Car is around 3400 (prolly closer to 3450) with me in it when the interior is out, but the interior was in the car for this. Car weighed roughly 3565 with me in at at etown with the interior in the car. Yes about the trans and clutch. The V has an ls7 clutch. I feel like the V might have gone around me if it lasted a little longer but we got off at ~115 because there was a car in my lane. If my memory serves me correct I think the SS went like 13.2 or 13.3 at Island in October...

So you raced a girl in the SS? Hate to generalize but I don't know too many girls that know how to bang gears.

Sounds like you got the hit(or advantage in powerband) then let off before the other car had enough space to swing by you?

Not hating, just stating how its presented on here

Hey I'm an LSX guy but I don't mind admitting when I get beat. This LT1 beats me by over 1 second in the 1/4. I give him props.
