Nice excuse!
The LT1 has gears and bolt ons too, if that makes you feel any better

I saw this guy's other videos where he was beating LS1's from a roll as well. Either this guy is lying about his mods or everyone he races is a 70 year old lady. I'd accept it if you were beating these guys from a dead stop, but when u pull through all the gears on a car with 40+rwhp on you it just doesn't make sense even with the "driver mod."

Cry me a river.

With his mods, it's very easy for him to take/run with LS1's and Mach's, even with a bolt on or two.
He didn't rape that car, he pulled a car/car and a half on it.
LT1's will bolt ons and gears/stall beat LS1's all the time, and a Mach 1 is no faster then an LS1.

of course a mustang owner would say that. Don't get all butt hurt because a mach took a spanking from a LT1 that is at least 10 years old.

Funny how when a stang beats an LS1 'drver error/traction' IE: EXCUSES come flying out.....yet when the same is for a stang loosing EVEN WITH more power and less weight the BS starts flying.

There is NO excuse burnzilla....I KNOW mach 1s. BTW - I wasn't lying about that being on the registry...go have a look. Funny thing is......THE MACH OWNER IS NEW TO HIS CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

No offense to you man but my buddy's Bolt-on LT1 beats LS1's from a roll also .... well lets just say ones that aren't that modified. I'm not gonna lie, probably the fastest LS1 I've seen him race is a stock 01 Firehawk M6. Some people say his car has always been a freak, even before he bought it.

What's done to the lt1? I don't see a bolt on lt1 beating a 6 speed ls1, possibly a 2.73 auto. Even a lid and exhaust on those things picks up 2mph.

I'm not crying about the fact the LT1 won, I love LT1's. I just don't see how it worked out the way it did. If he's pushing 268 rwhp like he said he was, it just doesn't add up.

Every LT1 i've raced or drove would never pull like that on an LS1 or Mach 1. Hell, I raced a cammed LT1 2 weekends ago and it was about dead even I even started to pull up top, granted it was an auto, but still...

I could care less if he lost or not. I'm just pointing out facts that the Mach1 driver was not a good driver at all. When the nose of his car has time to go down between shifts, he needs to shift faster.

I'm thinkin if they wanted to have a chance against the vette they would have needed some spike strips or hire a mexican midget to stand down the highway in front of it. That thing was wicked!

What is so hard to believe about this vid?? A mach 1 isnt that fast. I had an lt1 with gears only running. 11.30's in 1000ft. Put some headers and stuff on it. Your 10.90's with a driver mod. Will a stock supercharged cobra even run that? lol. J/k.

Some stock higher mileage ls1's that have been ragged out aren't any faster.

Not to dog on anyone, but a bolt on lt1 will run with a stock ls1 and a light modded mustang all day long...all day long.

Why are you talking about 1000ft times?

96 Z28 M6, Full Exhaust , CAI, Throttle Body Bypass, Descreened MAF and Intake Elbow. The car also came with a Hypertech programmer .... whether or not the previous owner messesd around with that I don't know. I know everyone isn't going to believe me but truthfully I could care less, I'm not trying to win a debate or prove any point, im just saying exactly what happened. They raced from a 45 roll , the firehawk jumped him about 3/4 of a car but the LT1 came around him and proceeded to put around 2 cars on him up till around 125ish mph.
