Awesome races per usual from you. Nice close races between the Vette and GT500. Props to the GT500 for holding it down from the digs on street tires in 37*

We went back home to race after the incident, about 30 minutes away.

Great vid and good races....

Why did the vette seem to jump on the brakes every time he got into 4th? Seem like he was pulling the plug way early..

GT500 was holding it down for sure.

Good races, but that GT500 wasn't putting in work. He was either heat soaked all to hell, or just slow. That Vette shouldn't have been in the same zipcode, let alone door to door with him.

After having raced a 14 GT500... Im not surprised at all by the results. Muffler deletes arent a HP mod

They get nasty after just a few HP mods. Lower pulley, toon, 3.73's and a tire makes a big difference in the performance.

Stock 2014 will put down 590's-610ish rwhp. I had 635rwhp sae @15psi when I ran the Vette I ran. ECS Supercharged cammed, long tube headered, bolt on'd etc etc LS2. We ran twice.. neither run was clean. But based on those runs, our cars were fairly closely matched. Now... take the supercharger off the Vette, and it has similar mods to the LS3 in the vid(less 30ish hp of course). No way in hell... sorry. That GT500 should walk a non supercharged LS Vette.

Here is my video racing the ECS Vette @ 15psi and 635rwhp.

2nd run, he got the jump and when I go into it, I stopped the pull. Closely matched.

Good runs and great vid!

GT500 definitely impressed me from a dig on street tires. Was a good close race between the C6 and GT500 every time they both got a good hit and dude with C6 can shift well. It's funny to see how much bigger the GT500 is than the C6.

Anything end up happening to dude with the C6 or did everyone just say **** it and take off lol?

Good runs, especially after the cops left! The LS3 Vette runs strong!
