Yes she has with race gas. But she has broke all three on regular 93 octane. One at drag strip, one on highway, and then one at Texas mile. All three times just playing around with it. And just over 650whp.

Good driving and nice runs. Would also like to see the run vs an M6 GT. I'll be having another one of those posted shorty vs my bolt-on WS6

Wish they would have rocked the LS3 with the A6 instead of the L99. Yeah, there isn't that much difference - but stock for stock, the autos are dogs

agreed as well, when i worked for the dealer only drove the auto's a couple of times. Stock form they are terrible, my friends G37 intake and exhaust would beat it, once it gets up higher in the rpms it would SLIGHTLY pull or keep even but as soon as it shifted fell back and in the end lost by a couple of cars.

Sarcasm I hope...this is my brother. Why would i go through the trouble to put a bottle on my car and jet it just to pull him by a car? The car is bone stock down to the paper filter. Just a side note, shipping weight for the car was only 3750 with 1/4 of gas.

my neighbour bought a 2010 l99. my stock-ish ws6 just crushed it. the stock l99 was running low 14's.

Not suprised by it at all. The L99 being able to be more gas efficient should've gone down the drain knowing the car weighs as much as it does, its a muscle car and not meant to get you the best MPG's.

All those doggy l99s need the fuse pull mod. Once it trips to the low octane table it will not reset without pulling the fuses to reset the ecm

good runs.

one thing i think this video does illustrate well is how hard someone stealing the hit, even by a split second, is hard to overcome. the camaro pulled hard even steven, no doubt. also from the sounds of it - you can drive, son.

So a slight modded G37 that has no torque and not even 350hp won by a couple of cars. I'll keep that in mind...

agree the afm is not needed and gm shouldnt tried to favor mpg for hp but losing 26hp doesnt make it a "dog"

I be here, da king of 5th gens wassup my little girls.

This is clearly the 5th gen spraying. IMpossible that a 5th gen beats anything really unless said car has 200-300 less hp.

well in reality they have at least 50 less hp to the wheels over an ls3, and shift like a worn out 83 th700r4. a tune does help significantly though.

Would have liked to see you get a bit faster than 110ish. Too short of a race to judge much. Race should have gone the other way, but both cars are still decently matched.

How long of a race do you need? lol. Neither of these cars trap much over 110 stock anyhow. Can pretty much see between those 2 which is quicker.
