Default me(97 ws6) vs 02 ws6

had alot of runs just about an half hour ago, both are cars where m6's and about the same mods, first race we went from a roll around 30 to 65 when we he had to break fast for a car in his lane. i had the nose of his car held at the middle of my door. i then suggested we go to a better more open spot so he agreed and we went from a dead stop. i was ahead by like a fender till he missed third. we again went same result except this time he was ahead a fender or so and pulling i miss a shift. alot of the other runs were like a 1st gear roll, amn did that ls1 pull hard, i kept up and occasionally a lil ahead(fender or so) but that thing really did outproform me/ the best run he had after was typical ls1 vs lt1 we were close till like 70 then he gained about 1 1/2 to 2 cars on me and shut down. the guy driving was real nice and complimented my car i did the same and we went our ways. great to finally have some clean runs with an ls1 T/a even if i got outrun.

Sounds like some close races. Good job maintaining the LT1 name. Did the other guy have anything done? He sounds pretty stock.

Sounds like a pretty exciting race I've only raced one LT1 with my LS1 and it was from a 50 punch and it amounted to an instant owning. He was a bonestock A4 to my full bolt on LS1 M6 so it wasn't really a fair race. Sounds like you've got yours running a little better than that though .

well the other guy asked what i had done i told him free mods n catback i asked him and he said same thing. i noticed his back tires looked to be eagle f1's n oddly enough his exhaust looked like some type of cat back that the pipes turn down, def wasnt the stock chromed tip ws6 exhaust it was fairly loud. i didnt get too many details bc i had trouble hearing him.

btw one mod i forgot to lit although minor is i replaced the convoluted rubber thingy that goes from the maf to the tb with a 3in to 4in rubber rudeucer for pvc pipe, i figure it flows more air and smoother than the stock piece. dont look to bad ghetto smooth air bellow ...4$

Well man, it sounds like you have a strong LT1. I ran a stock LT1 (it was a 94 or 95) when my 02 SS was stock, and it amounted to some pretty good ownage. He was about 4 cars back by the time I hit 90, and he was fading fast. Unfortunately, that was my only experience racing one...regardless, nice races.
