Default Stroked/Turbo T/A vs. 1 R6(04), 2 g5x3 cammed ls1's, and cammed lt1 ( video inside)

Met up with some local guys, and a guy from michigan that had his r6 here.

went out to the free way and lined em up.

We did a couple of pulls, one from 40, another from 60/70.

The bike did get the jump due to my inability to get traction, but I stayed right with him until I started getting traction and then it was

It was similar also for the other ls1's, didnt race the hotcammed lt1, but once I hooked

They were all good sports about it, but it was just an awesome night to go out cruising, and was perfect turbo weather

Vid should be up hopefully by saturday.

Edit: heres the video

they mostly wanted to come cruizing just to see the car in action.

they all had some smaller side races, but im not sure how much of it we got on film.

I did a nice small burnout too at the end

I do plan on trying to get a race in with a 1000cc bike soon, just gotta find someone willing

Just from my experience, MT DR's hooked better than BFG's for me

If I were you I'd run a big drag radial like a 315/60/15 Mickey Thompson this way you hook and book. Don't even let them think they had a chance..
