Default LT1 Trans am vs LS2 GTO

http://youtube.com/watch?v=nHDl4FnUNfY

Its actually an 05 GTO, because I almost cried when I saw the 6.0 badges

But I was pretty impressed with myself with keeping up as well as I did. I even got him off the line for about three seconds.

Nice Death.

Once that heavy *** gets movin, the LS Motor shows its high revving poise.
Not bad for a stock LT1 against a 400hp LS2!

Well there was a 130hp difference

Rematch is already planned once I get a few things done here and there.

yeah, no doubt... I know those cars weigh a lot, but they don't weigh THAT much more, to offset a 130hp advantage.

sweet looking car, a close friend has an Identical trans-am, '97 model though...

specialized. i ran a ls2 GTO form a dig and up till his 3rd gear we was dead even. and when he shifted to 4th he hung his shift for like a split second enogh for me to inch away. and stay that way.

i ran 13.5@105 stock.

but ls2 GTO are like the wildest cars in terms of broad spectrum of 1/4 times. it can be a 12,13,14 second car all with the same driver lol.
