It wasn't the other Josh was it? And at the end of a dead end road? If it was you will never convince him his blue oval is inferior even by beating him. And next time I'll bet money he will spray.

Hay OP do you have some pretty good runs over there? I'm only about 40 min. away if its worth the trip I could bring a few others with me too Gator (yellowsierra) has got a 438whp Goat and a TT LS1 truck (which probably wouldn't be necessary) and Brandt (blackbird 39) has got a STI that makes about 360 at all four corners. We don't really have a good place to run over here so it would be nice to have a good place to run and some other cars to run.

What he said. There's no way I would have gotten anything less than an '05 GT for my wife ..and myself.. because I have an LS1. I actually think the GT falls a tad short on the top-end (could just be me) but in the hands of a capable driver, I can definitely see the GT keeping up for majority of the run.

when i was completly stock except exhaust i race a stock ss from 20-130or so 3 times and he pulled a car on me through 1st 2nd adn 3rd, then would put a whole nother car on me in 4th. so stock for stock 2 cars for the SS

Could I expect the same outcome from a dig?

yea it was josh, but i dont know if you talking about the right one or not...we left from the dead end spot...he doesnt have ne spray and ill doubt he gets ne

We don't really have a good place to run over here so it would be nice to have a good place to run and some other cars to run.
well its a decent spot down a road that dead ends, but usually as soon as your leaving that road a cop will come, so not to sure if its all that safe, ive to many close calls there...and there isnt really to many cars over here either, i know of two other ls1s around here and one is an idiot and the other one is fast as sh*t and very rarely drives it

damn, must have been an unhealthy camaro. I have never had any problems with 05+ stangs and I have raced dozens...literally, there all over the place. At the track I have seen atleast 50stockers run and 40 of the 50 barely get past a 13.9. I ran a manual 05 gt just a week ago a few times from a dig and he was murdered and he launched perfectly by 80 I had 4 lenghts and was still pulling, he took it to the track and ran a 13.7. It was new with about 2000 miles on it. I also ran him from a 20 roll and a 60 roll and it seems that when those cars hit 70 they seem to slow the hell down but they do hold close until 70. Raced also plenty of roush stage 1 and 2 and shelbt gt-h and shelby -gt's and the outcome seems always the same. So stock for stock I would say an ls1 is 4-5 cars faster. Stock I ran 13.2 - 13 flats all day. With the cutout and lid and kdws my best is a 12.8 in my A4

im going to throw the BS flag on that one and most of the other stuff in this thread all you need to look at is hp per pound if a bolt on ls1 lost to you it was the drivers fault

Looking at this statement I would on the surface call BS also. But I would want clarification as to what else was done before I just assumed it was the stock 302 with bolt ons. Sooo.... Clear it up for us.
Standing by with BS flag just in case.
