It is always the same excuse when an LS1/LS6 lose...poor driving. Grow up people. There is always one faster than you.

Do I have to explain to you too? 380whp>304whp. He claimed those numbers, I'm not making anything up. Weight is the same and with those numbers what would you expect if both of the drivers were the same?

Duhhhh!

Evo Guy:

Good semi-kill. Next time just lie about the numbers so the Bench racers can't call anything.

you guys make me laugh. I know dylan very well..he has a vid...and i was there to witness and you guys dont believe that? And no, the weight is not the same....i dont think that dylan has said anythng about that...but he and the car weigh in at 3200lbs. I have a 385 car and we are door to door most races, but me pulling half a fender from 20-120. And no...you are dead wrong about same weight/power.....they dont have the exact curve...hell what if the z06 made peak at 5K and drops off quickly and dylan doesnt peak until 6K and holds that for 1K? you obviously dont know your *** from a hole in the ground. Guess what guys....LS1/6s can loose to 4 bangers....lets see them go from a dig..at least dylan went from a roll.

Duhhhh!

How about gearing, and the fact that the EVO will rev to 7850.

Will you please hop off that gay *** bandwagon with the same quotes that you morons rehash 10k times a day and realize it's about which of the given cars should be faster based on the facts presented, NOT simply the LS1/LS6 is faster.

Cant stand you sheep who hop into these threads saying that same **** over and over. ****** gay.

All I know is this was supposedly a race between a 300whp Evo and a 380rwhp Z06 and a true 380rwhp Z06 will kill a true 300rwhp Evo on the highway given equal drivers. Simple as that. Heck hand me a 380rwhp Z06 and put me up against a real 300whp Evo and unless that evo is stripped to the bone, I'd bet any amount of money I'd leave him from a roll, no doubt.

I personally don't care who won at all ... I just find this statement to be funny.

You sit here in every post of yours and say how it is Impossible to be a bad driver from a roll .... but yet you missed a shift yourself ?? Therefore, in that particular race, you were a bad driver .... how could you possibly rule out that he may have done the same thing ?? Even the best drivers have incidents every once and awhile where they start in the wrong gear, miss a shift, give it too much/little gas, etc... as you so nicely just pointed out.

P.S. 380rwhp Z06 should have no issue lighting up the tires from a roll ....

ok, so how poor of a driver do you have to be to screw up racing from a roll? not including missing a shift cause that can happen to anyone no matter how poor or great of a driver they are.

sorry, but i think you guys are reaching out now. I have the video, it pretty obvious how far behind i was (not much) and roll racing is very simple. nevermind the fact that he was probably over 200 lbs heavier than i was at the time.

Anything can happen on a track. Driver skill aside, the stock NON Z06, the base LS1 with the base suspension, pulls higher slalom speeds and skipad G's in every test I've read than the EVO VIII, marginally, but higher.

Let me guess, the magazine articles are wrong, like always!

I've personally SEEN stock vettes hand Evo's their *** on Auotocross. The car is capable of doing it with a good driver more so than the EVO.

I give the EVO rally rights, no doubt!

The ONLY context of racing where an EVO would stand a chance would be dirt.... Everywhere else the EVO would be in the class with the typical ricer Civics, GTIs, neons, fieros, vibes, integras etc.... the Z06 would be classed with Vipers, Ferraris, M3's, etc....there really isnt much comparison between the two.

304 vs 380, it doesn't matter what gearing! The stock gears are slightly closer in ratio than the Z06, not THAT much of a difference, guys, unless they are aftermarket.

They are too similar in weight, too, and the powerbands are both decent. Most, I repeat NOT ALL, Evo mods involve larger turbos and slower spools. Better peaks but even worse powerbands. Many don't bother with the head or CI increases except for very modded EVO's. Heck, I'll wager, on a dynograph, the Z06 probably has a little wider powerband, anyway. Both badass cars, of course. I'm done bench racing, now.

Yeah it's gay when people play the broke record, word for word about the bench racing. That's why we are on this thread!

There we go, see, you know your Vettes.

I couldn't believe that statement had gone on so long with out some Vette guys jumping in. You were a little late, bud.

Your car has 400+ lbs. on the Vette, bro.

Apples to oranges, not the same

Try what again? Figuring it out? Nah, It's just easier not to believe this.

A 380 rwhp Z06 and a 385 rwhp Camaro get pulled, equally, by a 304 AWHP Evo... No.

Anyone that goes to race tracks knows that stock LS1's hang with Stock EVO's, if not TAKE them. LS6 Z06? Not the same. For an EVO to pull on a Z06, it's VERY possible. It just needs MODS.

NOT 304 AWHP, though! Sorry not enough. I've seen Evo's smoke Vettes MANY times around here. To beat a stock LS1 Vette, it needs AT LEAST 340 awhp... Not to mention a Z06 LS6! YOU try again. Try what? To have the consensus here actually believe this stuff... if you care...if you don't that's fine, it's not my story. I don't care either.
