Default LS1 Vs SRT4 Vs LT1

Guys here a vid a buddy shot this weekend. I didnt get a chance to edit it but its a good watch.

The cars are:

LS1 Transam Heads/Cam/Stall (camera Car)
Srt4 20lbs boost
LT1 Camaro Cam/Sprayed (problems with N2O as you will hear)

All good races. All cars pull nice.

Looks like a lot of fun. I wish we could run around here like that w/o having to worry about cops. What were the mustangs mods(besides the driver mod)?...looks like he stayed with you guys pretty good.

Hey guys, I'm the H/C LS1. That damned skittle is fast as hell. I'm putting down about 400rwhp and he still pulled me. He is a cool guy though. Maybe I just need to get a bigger cam or some spray of my own.

I also forgot to mention I had about 380 LBS worth of passengers with me at the time. So the skittle was about 800-1000 lbs lighter than me during the runs.

He was having problems on the spray and was detonating really bad in the upper RPMs. He is gonna change the plugs and drop the shot size to see if that cures the problems.

do you have a decent tune on your car? your hp numbers seem to be about right, but your e/t and traps don't really seem to be what i would expect on a h/c car.

going based off your traps i'd say the race went about how it should have, srt-4s with a decent mods are gonna be trapping pretty high.

Those times were with the stock 130,000 mile transmission and torque converter. The races were with the new trans and 3600 stall.

Holy blast from the past. And I ran over a full second faster with my heads and cam. 11.79 to be exact. Oh and I have sold that car and bought an FRC vette and ran a 12.99 going from third to second with only bolt ons.
