They have a modded redline in my area that just dyno'd at 24?whp. From a dig I put buses on him but from a 40 roll(his choice) he put about 1 and 1/2 cars on me and it took me until about 100mph to pass him. They are quick from a 40 roll, 30 roll, no. I'm also in an auto so that could be way he jumped so much but hes a cool guy and didn't talk **** like this guy did on the forum.

Honestly, I'm not sure that I DON'T believe the story...after all, how many run down, poorly maintained f-bodies are out there? Seems like that is all I see around here anymore...not even the LS1 can be expected to perform well if the owner doesn't take care of it. That's my take on it...granted, I hate domestic ricers even moreso than the real deal.

That LS1 would have to be horribly maintained and the driver should be shot for getting on it in that condition.

I like how he claimed the ls1 double clutched when they raced after one guy asked him sarcastically. This guy really is a ricer. I killed a redline by Quite a bit and I get beat by ls1s by quite a bit, But anything can happen on the street.

Why all the sudden do people think that Double Clutching is something that has to be done to race?? lol....Was F&F on rerun all last week? Damn hahahahahaahh

If someone "double clutched" on me...the race is OVER! Its like missing a shift...and that means 2 -3 car lengths are instantly lost lol

Pretty funny stuff. Yeah, I think everyone knows that race is BS.

A mid 14 car pulling a mid 13 car..........maybe in fantasy land.

for an ls1 to be so poorly maintained that something like this happens, you're talking:
8 spun bearings
8 thrown rods
6 or 7 nuked pistons
a missing fuel pump fuse
a fragged ignotion relay
no head gaskets
no oil
no coolant
1 spark plug
no spark plug wires
half of an intake manifold
an MAF and IAT in the y pipe
and four flat tires

...

and even that would be a driver's race

**** happens. I can believe that he killed THAT LS1. Just as long as he knows it's far from the norm for an RL to pull an LS1, it's no big deal.

From the post "yes, i am bone stock except the intake... he is bone stock except exhaust and an intake.. he's got the 6 speed manual too... and if ur thinking it's driver error, it isn't..."
"his car has 60k miles on it, no oil leaks, and he actually keeps it pretty clean..."
"on my old motor, he walked me by about 3 cars (2 exhaust valves locked down)... on this new motor, my cel was on when we raced (i figured i was throwing a lean code) maybe the next time i see him we'll set up another race... we do little mini-races (like 60-90) when we're out cruising, and he never pulls on me either... he lost to an ls1 camaro ss w/ slp long tubes, slp airbox, slp tune, and steel gears by 1 car, so i know his car aint runnin' shitty"


I think he is fibbing quite a bit guys........

You can tell he is rice the way he says intake... What has happened is he got a new motor (stock) that has the power its supposed to have and he thinks his car is super fast.

I have smoked a ss colbalt 2dr and they are pretty much the same thing. And by smoked I mean it wasn't a race. It was from a stop though but I would say the same thing would happen from 60-90

I lock down my exhaust valves every night right after I turn the car off...it keeps the oil eating gerbils out of my engine.

wow, i am speechless. and to think, some are utilizing an open mind and thinking up "possibilities".If a rod was hanging out of the side of my block i would still manage to put busses on a saturn 'redline'. That is the gayest **** i have ever heard, and not only do i want to create a name to call this ol boy out, i will run him in a bone stock tahoe and severly hurt his ego. that guy has no friends.
