You could tell it what was going down when the guy opened his door to watch his own burnout

Stupid video cut off just before the 5.0 blew past on the top end.

Wasn't really the cleanest run. 5.0 sounded like it was spinning off launch, but came back up top. Good run none the less.

The two are close enough to make it a race. As stated above, an auto is hard to beat from a dig. By the time the 5.0 got moving again, it was over. Regardless, if there was money involved, then the guy in the LS1 would be heading home with a full pocket.
Good race..and btw, the scenery in the background was killer. Very nice.

This guy should be the spokesman of SRK. Just un biased real talk. If you raced someone, lived close and lost I would gladly pull out a car and slay them in your name if they talked trash. Don't mediate too much, I like to read about how some are blindly brand loyal.

I feel like we were separated at birth or something... though you ended up with a Mach 1 and clearly have better taste. LoL

LOL. We must have been separated at birth since I did have a 2001 Z28 before the MACH1. Somewhere along the line, I lost my way though and went to the dark side. I still miss my Z to be honest.

Good to see a 4G still putting up a fight. An auto 4G no less....

Looks like this section won't be dead anytime soon.

Mine is trash but I can't imagine not having it. I'm starting to "get" the fox body crowd.

Nothing wrong with the dark side, I've nearly jumped myself... Still might.

If the price had been right on the 13' GT500 on the lot here, I'd be driving it.
