Intake/longtube LS2 GTO vs bolt on C6 vette & 2011 5.0 **HD VID**
#21
As others have mentioned... That vette sounds wounded.
That 5.0 did really well. Wanted to see the 5.0 vs the vette for the hell of it.
GTO driver was banging the hell out of those gears, add driver mod to the modslist for the GTO.
Good video.

I just guessed that he was...not 100% sure if thats true or not though. I was looking the other way filming lol. We didn't knit pick all the details after the runs since it was gorgeous outside and we were just out having a good time.

c6 needs driver mod. If you can't shift it fast then don't try to powershift and just lay it up on the rev limiter. That absolutely kills your momemtum. The zr1 gears are not the reason he did not run good those gears are great for roll racing they only drop to 5500 rpms on the shifts.The driver just needs to learn how to drive the car. Not hating just stating facts.
Good runs otherwise, I was surprised by that damn 5.0!

Sure you weren't racing the new V6 stangs?? Sounds like you ran into a few people who couldn't drive very well or had poorly running 5.0s. I've ran bolt on ls1's in this "slow" GTO, and put them in my mirror.

Guess if you got monet for all that stuff a new clutch after a new clutch is no biggy. Tho i wouldve saces all the money from mods and bought a ZO6 or a GRANDSPORT... thats me though.

Traps? That's what a good running car SHOULD trap. Not all Cars are the same, and not all cars will trap the exact same with the same mods. Some will be faster and some will be slower. I've ran lots of GTO's with the same mods as op. Ive beat some and lost to some. All made about the same power, some cars are faster and some are slower.

5.0 driver had the car for about 2 weeks when we ran him the first time so it's def a possibility he got better at driving it. And you don't know how bad I wish you lived closer so you could find out how slow GTO's were in your race car L99 auto camaro.
