whats so fishy about it? all i know is that it sounds like the guy with the Gn runs 11's but he could run 8s,9s i dont know. but it seems like on here that if the ls1 beat the Gn you guys would say nive kill not "well the story is bs because the ............." i kind of expected that being as its posted on a ls1 forum but whats so fishy about a guy with a faster car beating another guy?

It isn't that I didn't believe it. I just got confused because i thought it was your car. I missed your one post saying it wasn't yours. No doubt there are a shitload of Bad *** Gn's out there. Wish I knew what he had done to the GN though. Makes the story better. Leaves the mind wondering too dam much. LOL.

Why are you guys putting up the flag when no one even knows what is done to the GN? You could build any car to walk a Sprayed LS1, alls it takes is money.
And don't underestimate the Potential of GN's. i guess i just dont understand why people are calling bs on this when they don't know all of the actual mods done to both cars....

Well thats what I did sat night. LOL! I drove about an hour and a half to meet up with them around 11:00pm at their spot. I let my car cool down for about 30min, and then it was off to race, but their spots were being patrolled by the fuzz, and I was getting concerned that my trans was getting heat soaked from all the driving araound (cause it don't like to shift hot!) but just wanted to get the damn race off. We finally after 45min. stopped at a spot to do it. I Figured I was gonna leave easy, so I didn't even drop any air pressure from my 275-60-15 BFG Drag Radials, meanwhile LS1 dude lowers his tire pressure, checks bottle pressure, and fiddles with his laptop for 10minutes. 1/4mile gets marked out, and we line up. I did a baby burn out and rolled out just to warm them a little, and we staged. I launched at anout 3-5psi and hammered the pedal about 20ft out. I pulled about 2 cars in 1st gear, but then my trans didn't want to shift so I had to let off, at which point he was back on my bumper. The stock 200R4 finally found second gear, I hammered down again (boost dropped to 0 in the meantime, but shot right back up) and pulled 2 cars in second gear no problem. Then I backed out of it to play safe on the 2-3 shift again, rolled into the gas once the shift was complete, and pulled third gear out to stay about 2-3 cars ahead.
Everyone seemed to have some trouble believing that I ran around this guy, but they paid, and I was on my way!
I had a good time!
