I seem to be lining up with a bunch of vettes as of late, but this pull is really good.

Vette made 844SAE to my 903SAE.


Once he turns it up further, I won't have a chance with this 2.3L baby blower.

Awesome race. good pull there at the end to even it up.

Damn islander, that White Whale moves!!
At 844rwhp with the vette's huge weight and aero advantage, I was expecting different results.

Looks like he NEEDS to turn it up to keep out of reach for a little ol Cobra

islander033

Thanks mango!

Thought vettes had the top end advantage due to aero and stuff?

Thought mustang needed +100whp just to try and compete with vette? My car was ~800lbs heavier and only ~60whp more.

Things that make you say hmmmm. lol

PS. None of this has anything to do with the car or owner of the vette in the vid (he's super cool with a badass car), just stuff that has been said time and time again in SRK by certain individuals.

Nice vid good runs

Isn’t your car 3600 no driver? Thought a c6z was 3150 range stock? 450 lb difference ?

islander033

Thanks TR!

My rw is 3805lbs in track trim, a touch over 4000lbs in street trim. This was in street trim.

He told me his car is 3200lbs with him in it.

I think this is the best street pull I've ever had for being a close race.

Good run man the whale is definitely running good but I’m sure someone will come in and say that vette isn’t proper 😉

islander033

Thanks LDub!

I've learnt over the years that nothing that I make a pull against is proper. I'm pretty used to the crying. LOL

Excuse my ignorance but was the video car the same car that is in your avatar? Regardless, good run!

islander033

Correct. It's a 2010 GT500 with built 5.4L 4V, 2.3L TVS and still M6.

Thanks!

Post displacement torque curve ftw!

Thanks!
No, that's you man.

Vette wasn't proper, good runs.

Good run. I wonder how both these cars would fair against a certain base sbe c6 with a baby d1x on it?

only type of power adder I haven't played with....considering add an LSA to my LS6.

islander033

D1X is a decent blower. That car might have enough to hang... but maybe not.
LSA is a bit small. But it is definitely affordable.

Isn't a D1x smaller than an F194?

islander033

Yes it is. Rated at ~1000hp. Not sure how much you can over spin it.
