Aggie joke? I didnt see anything funny in your post at all. Moving on, my SS ran 12.30@117 with 385rwhp, it now has 400+ NA and a 150 shot on top of it so you can pretty much assume if your slow *** GTO lined up it would get walked bad. Anyhow, the new Vipers do 125, and the older GTS models do 122-123.

[QUOTE=GTO JIMMY] Call me crazy but I think a 150 shot of nitrous would make more power then a measly 6psi from one of those goofy rear mount turbo kits. Sad thing is my car cam only would have hung with your LS2GTO on 150 jets judging from your 119mph traps, how pathetic is that. I am willing to bet you ANY amount of money that this guys Viper would beat your turbo GTO, that is before you blew up the motor with ******* 6 pounds of boost, lol. Im willing to bet on 150 jets I could make your GTO look like it was parked on the freeway.

You definately prove that with your cam/spray/bolt-ons 12 second ride.

Okay
So I'm at the light and this little old lady with a shopping cart is standing on the curb next to me. I look over at her and she gives me a dirty look. What? You want some lady? Well, I gun the engine and she kicks her cart, rattling the cans inside. Revving the engine, I wait 'til the light turns green and, when it does...she beats me off the line cause her Safeway shopping cart is much lighter than my Goat. Before I knew it, she was halfway across the street and my tires were still smoking. Damn...blown off the line by a bag lady. Go figure....guess I got owned. I think the old bitch had NOS. Well, at least I didn't pay $70k+ for my car just to get schooled. LMAO
Sorry...just adding a bit more to this
BTW...good run. All things considered, it could have gone the other way. Racing on the street is a lot different than racing on a track. Road conditions, driver skill, timing, traffic, etc all play a part on the road. Point is...if you felt good afterward knowing what your car can do...then enjoy. No matter how fast you are...there's always someone faster.
GTO Jimmy - Sweet ride man.

Hell, he has beaten stock 6.0L GTOs in his car. Probably a freak.

No way did he get a 13.0 with the LS1 GTO. Especially if stock motor means no mods but if he had mods of 50 or more hp then I may believe it.

's ugly PERIOD...
It is a freakin australian car with a v8 in it. so go figure on the ugly looks..
With 400 HP and a decent sporty interior the GTO would still be selling at MSRP..Instead the goats been dead eaten and sacraficed for quite some time...
Honestly....Could you imagine a Ss camaro or WS6 with the LS2 and 400 HP..It would sell like hot cakes man.

I stopped reading this thread and dont think im gona ever come in this dumb section again. For the most part its full of dumbasses with 20 posts to their name that dont know S#*^ about cars or racing.
who beats who by 2 cars in a meaningless illegal road race. Everyone knows the most important part of a damn race is in the 60 ft', this part is usually skipped in half these stories. Sorry for the venting, im outta here.

Back on topic (you know the original one),
Nice death
The LS2 GTO's can trap 106-110 so it's no surprise that he edged you out since most F-bodies trap 103-107 stock. Get to modding now and ask for a rematch
