You have won the DUMBEST GUY ON LS1TECH AWARD.

Try 3500lbs or less (mine) with over 600+ rwhp. Ill give you 5 cars and 3 excuses. Moron.

My old LS1 (H/C bolt on and 150 shot) would have SMOKED your LS1 and it wont stand a chance at my Cobra. Your car wont even trap 120. Take your meds.

Slowbras are slow. I have a 593 rwhp 695 rwtq V6 87 Turbo Regal T. The only time I lose to Suckstangs is if I am in my all stock 87 GN instead of the T And my Z06 can go either way against modded cars, but I've beaten stock 03-04 Cobras on the street with my lowly lowly 385 hp stock 2001 Z06

Your GN traps 127 with a good gear and a good tire. Your Z06 traps 115. Love both cars, but nothing to brag about. Really.

Omega. Ignorance is bliss.

LOL, btw its a Regal Turbo T, not a Grand National, although I have a Grand National too. My 127 mph run was a year and a half ago, on 3.42 gears and a 28 x 9 MT ET Drag. That was the last time I was at the track in the T and I only made ONE pass on that setup. It's faster now, don't worry its just a 3.8L V6

Not worried. One of my buds has an 11.50 GN. Pokey but nice looking.

REally?..the only time you lose? So you dont' visit the track often. Either that, or most of the single digit stangs are all out here.

i realize that your t-type is pobably running faster than 10.9 now but at summer nationals the other day there was an 03 cobra with pullies, stock blower, 60 shot and a solid rear that was running 10.70s so they cant be that slow

No use, people that post like this are actually very insecure. Fact. I have run so many cars and have yet to loose a street race, but I am very humble and love talking about cars. I would never instigate this attitude. These threads do not show the majority of this forum.

Great thread though.
