Default 2015 5.br0 vs Camaro SS 1LE *Part 2 w/ vids*

So Im sure most are aware of the back and forth in the other thread. Was able to meet up with Zyborg's friend and did a few runs. Thanks to the 1LE owner for the invite to his spot, nice group of people. Here's the video...

Good races. You can see at higher speeds when the 5.0's feminine powerband gives up

40,45,50. Don't recall the order. Tried a 55 and banged the limiter on the take off. Lol

Towards the end (mostly the last run) I'm thinking the e85 was helping him gain ground on the top end, I think e85 isn't much a power adder as it is a power keeper, I think it does best at maintaining your power instead of it being taken away to heat soak (timing retard). I don't recall in which runs it happened but I think in 2 of the runs the car shifted itself on the 3-4th on its own without me hitting the paddle. Will see if I can replicate it, don't think it's supposed to do that, wasn't even over 7k.

Thanks for sharing, Very nice runs and props to both of you guys. 1le hung in there pretty well but wasn't enough for the yote. 1le's are sexy af none the less, now for the excuses and 5.0 bashing to begin by the usual ford haters. Good thing gm lighened up that pig of a 5th gen and added the lt so they can actually take out a 5.0 (with the 6g)

Hio? Race gas, and it lost. Can you please explain? A gm with race gas lost to a inferior Mustang II with pump gas and it lost. Did the universe just create a black hole and our impending doom?

5br0 had more mods man. Mod for mod the it looks like the 5gen would beat it.....it was already coming back around up top.

Good runs

E85 makes more power over pump because it has more oxygenates in it. Thus giving you the ability to burn more fuel for a net power increase. The cooling affect is also beneficial

They call e85 race gas when it's in a camaro, they call it pump gas and useless when it's in a mustang.

It is mainly those guys poking fun at Hio getting so upset about e85 on Br0s but not saying much once the GM car runs it.

His stance on E85 has been rather laid back lately now that the 6G picks up so much power from it and more GM guys are readily tuning for it.

That's cause everyone knows E85 slows down Mustangs a few tenths. It's well documented.

Nice kill man and good runs!

What did you guys run up to? You could see the 1LE fall back on shifts and then whatever speed you guys shut down at, he was starting to come back around. Races were over, but I'd have still liked to see one of them run out a little longer

I think your on to something there .....a few of the runs you pulled very hard throughout.....which is impressive for an auto car roll racing an M6 on race gas.....a couple of those he came back which would explain why if your car was shifting early. Yotes need to Rev . Now get those cats off and get some E85. Great video !
