Wow that was a lot closer then I expected. I figured the G8 was heavy but damn...

gregsss

Wow nice runs, I figured the G8 would crip away a little. Maybe would have if they keeped going at a higher speed

1st race, we were coming up on a car REAL fast.
2nd race, a turn was coming up REAL fast (not really a problem or the G8 though )

Im confused how the race was that close. The G8 has over 200 more ponies to the wheels. Granted its heavier, it still shouldnt have been that close.

Close race!

that doesn't make any sense.

Weight. Plus the fact that the Camaro has that big stall that flashes to 5700 on the hit so it's always in the meat of the powerband.




G8 runs high 10.9x @ 127.7 IIRC.

Id be disappointed

When did Shane put a S/C on? Last I saw he had a big shot on it.

Why is that?

This just proves that you can't always judge a race based on mods and numbers.

btw- I have a big HP Honda that will be in upcoming vids. RIght up your alley.

Last summer I think, I'll tell him to chime in.

Time flies. I barely remember last year it went by so fast with school and all.

38394Z28

I'm with you. 668 and it trapped 127? That's not impressive at all imo.

If i am not mistaking when he was trapping that 127 he had issues but that ls3 moves the **** out!!!! And yes they are capable of trapping high 12x too, didnt yal see the vedeo were he walked that 119mph ls1 with lots of weight reductiob

Really close race! whats the weight difference between the two? Also dyno #s for the camaro seem low with that setup i would expect it to dyno low 500's. Was the camaro dynoed on a mustang dyno and the G8 on a happy dyno jet. Like others have said 668whp and only trapping just under 128 seems a bit slow. Lots of belt slip perhaps?

this x 1,000,000

friend's D1 cam only (stall and Lt's) G8 went 11.1 @126+ with 100 less rwhp. something not right.

GotHemi?

Id have to agree with everyone else. Race was too close. I can see the LS3 making more power than advertised tho. Coulda been a heart breaker dyno like I use. On my dyno 650rwhp get a 4400lb sedan in the 130's all day long.

On another note when I read that the G8 was rolling on SS wheels I was preparing myself for one ugly sight, but man does it look BAD *** on that car!!! Looks better on the G8 than on the Camaro.

I hope a car that traps 127 walks a car that traps 119
