explanation... Seriously though I can't tell if a race is really going on. Without sound you can't even tell what's going on. It looks like the cars are accelerating but who knows if they're WOT or what. The results are definitely possible though based on mods of all the players. There's just too many unknowns here. Oh and damn I forgot how far the stock throw is on the shifter!

i doubt a cold air/nitto/tune would still put him in a range to rape a ls1 stock or not. stang GTs are mid low 14 sec cars. and even with a 125 shot he wouldnt take out a c6 z06

umm, i don't know what's up with that camAro, but my car is A LOT faster than that, and i'm running low 13's at best. i doubt it's coming close to beating the neon anytime soon, but it looked like high 14 second track passes as far as i can tell by the video. pathetic. are you guys sure that wasn't a V6???

if it's a stage 3, high 11's, low 12's. depends on driver...too many variables.

Another friend ran a 13.9 with a brand new paper plate mustang GT auto. With the rest of his mods and a 125 shot I could see a low 12. As for beating a c6 zo6...if it was on the street from a dig and the driver fell asleep at the light or didnt know they were racing...yeah it could happen. It would take a little more than his mods to take a c6 z06 out.

Probably, but over 120 mph because of FWD.

Default Knocked The F--k Out!

Damn every one on this forum seems to think an Ls1 stock or not is unbeatable. Both the Mustang and Neon obviously are not stock. The Camaro is most likley a 13.50 car.Thats fast for a bone stock car of any era, but is beatable.

Ya, because this is stangnet.net or skittlesforlife.com plenty of people have posted that it must have been a stock Camaro. I believe everyone is more shocked on how quiet the LS1 is than the outcome of the race. CamEro eh? Must be one of those counterfit models....
