Yeah I know 13's are slow and it's true but if you agree with that statement that includes ls1's too. Both have exhaust tune and auto trans. It was 95 degrees and humid,we both ran like **** ,but what happened to the magical third gear on the Ls1?

Well GM should definately do a recall then because I've never had a LS1 pull me in 3rd gear.
