Default wtf, the only cars i race are ls1s

i use to own an 86 mustang untill it got rear ended, and ive been *** raped by an ls1 in it so i bought me one because i always loved the 4th gen f bodies, but there has been only one problem.

i can only get other ls1 powered cars to race me.

ive raced an ls1 z28, two ls1 c5 vettes and an ls1 t/a

i bought this to race mustangs and **** and i can only get races with other ls1s

-vs c5 vette (2nd race on there) http://media.putfile.com/Track-run-a...e-street-races
-vs another vette http://videos.mistreetscene.org/vide...2F9933FA9F.htm
-vs Z28 http://videos.mistreetscene.org/vide...33CB77E2D8.htm

i dont have the vids against the t/a but from a 20 roll i beat him and from a 10 roll he got me (auto with 3500 stall and louder exhaust than me, didnt know other mods). didnt go from a dig because my clutch was slipping

that seems pretty fucked up if you ask me

I think its good you only get LS1s to race you. True, you might not win against a competitor that is actually WORTHY of racing, but isnt that better than the hollow victories of smashing old mustangs and ricers day in and day out? Thats just being philosophical i guess. I guess im partly jealous because i've had my LS1 for over a year now and havent been able to race another LSx yet!!! Just feel lucky man.

Yeah, feel good you actually get to race other V8's because you know it is going to be a good race. Don't think I've ever raced an ls1, beaten a few lt1's at the street races and got spanked by another on the freeway, don't know what he had but the car sounded sick and he pulled on me like I was standing still. I live right down the street from UC Riverside, so there's massive rice but I don't think many of them have many mods, cause everytime I'm lined up next to one, they'll do everything they can to hang behind me even when I go like 30mph.

+1 I've beaten my fair share of ricers, v6 camaros, v6 mustangs, only raced 1 mustang GT and a **** ton of trucks but I can't seem to get a LS1 or a cobra to race me. I just about gave up on it. Even at the track I can't get another v8 to race me.
