hey bro, roll out or go home is what i'd say lol. the vette played their game, now its their turn to play his. if they wanna play on the south side of 100
, they can find a gokart to run or an 1/8th mile track to race at. you wanna roll with the vette, be ready to go the distance, none of this 60 to 100 bs
. thats for high school kids lol. 100 punches are just a different kind of test really. a better test of who really has the faster car cause its all engine output and aerodynamics, the driver skill isn't dependent on not missing gears or who shifts the fastest, or who can get a car to 60 foot better. its motor, car, and the driver's juevos...

The 5.0 owner is a buddy that deals cars. He wants to keep it stock so he can sell it down the road. He never really mods his cars, but he's owned quite a few sports cars including an LS2 GTO. He can drive the ***** off a car so whenever he gets something new, we like to line up with him since we know were probably not going to run into a better driver with the same car, lol.

I wish people would stop saying the 3.31 geared cars are slow. The gearing advantage is not the rear end... its the TRANSMISSION. You could put 2.73 gears in the back of it and it will still never fall out of its power band because the gears are so close to each other. This transmission, reving 7000rpm, with 3.73s in the back... is the equivalent to a t-56 car reving 7000 rpm with 4.56s. First gear is 3.66.
On another note.. Good vid and good day time runs. Has the GTO been retuned since the header install. As in making sure AFR is legit and not lean.

As far as the 3.31's, I don't know why people are so upset when you list 3.31's over 3.73's. The mustang with it's 7K rpm powerband and 3.31's shifts around basically the same time as the goat reving to just over 6K RPMs and having the MN12 close ratio tranny. I'd say thats pretty good gearing! Like you said, it's all in the tranny, not the rear axle.

we cranked that song on my van's stereo, when one of our r/c model pilots was showing off. he nearly lawn darted it as he started laughing.
and i'm sure you know this, but i'm gonna say it anyway.....i didn't mean what i said derogatorily. i just got a kick outta that look.
