Shitty looking LT1 kept up, WTF???? Raced a crappy looking 96 Z28 M6 , started in 2nd and went to 4th. I was shifting at around 5700, he was drawing out to around 6100. Races were about even with him nudging out here and there. I was really surprised he kept up. I thought I would smoke him as it looked like a crappy 150K LT1. I was in my 02 Z28 with lid, maf , and tb. After we pull into a spot and he pops the hood, claiming he has only a catback and K/N. I said bullshit and he plays dumb. I think he had heads and a stealth cam or a hidden nitrous setup. What do you guys think? isn't a LS1 supposed to smoke a LT1.
BTW: I don't think anything is wrong with my car. Right before this race I ran a nicely done 21psi talon and was even in 3rd. Last week I ran a 99 T/A A4 with LT + catback and won by a little.

I've raced a "bone stock" 96' LT1 M6 SS from 2 30mph rolls on a shitty *** ******* street and he pretty much kept up. I was asking him what he had done. He kept saying it was torque. On a better street, and different speed I think the outcome would be different. From a dig it was no contest.
Just my .02.

I used to surprise folks all the time when I had my stock 16x8 silver wheels with M/T radials...The car looked stock and with my smallish cam didn't sound too modded, but it ran 11.50s @ 118 in that trim and surprised more than a few cars...Sounds like he had a bit of a sleeper, pretty cool...
