yea 40 with stock gears is about 3800 rpms and thats actually not bad at all. From the feel of the car, a stock cammed LS2 really starts to come on @4500. So gears won't really do anything from a roll cause the lowest rpm i see after a shift is about 4800.

Now put a ported fast on it. From what I've seen ls2's pick up about 30HP with a fast.

Nice vid clarity......maybe you can submit to the can festival.

My next mod


After the slipping clutch...
And the cooked brakes...
And the fact that I can't put power down in 1st, or 2nd, and a little bit of 3rd...

But a FAST is definitely on the list lol.

FAST should be your last mod, really. I would ported the LS2 first with a cam.

Anyway, good runs! That was a strong GT for sure!

I agree that starting a roll from 3500 is far from ideal. You lost ground and momentum every time. He got the perfect race, not you.
