MTI H/C Camaro VS. MTI H/C Corvette Well Guys I have MTI
Head/Cam package 2002 SS. I ran into a Electron Blue Corvette
at the track with the exact same setup, so we raced 3 Times. I took him the 3 times AT THE TRACK. My 12.0 to his 12.3 
. NEITHER OF US SPRAYED. (Elevation sucks here at our track).
BOTH are AUTOMATICS
So he asks if I want run on the street. So I said OK. But I made him take out his bottle and so did I
.
We went from a 30 mph roll ON THE STREET, and I was confident I would win. On the 3rd honk I get the jump, and he just Flew by me Like I was in reverse! Same outcome out of 5 Races. So I made my Bro ride with him just to make sure he wasnt spraying(Which he didnt), SO I get the jump and he waits a while and floors it. In no time he caught me and flew by me again
My bro verified that he was not spraying
That SUCKER HaulS!!!
Anyway, he admittee that he doesnt know how to race at the track so this Friday were running his car for him. 
BTW: He put on the bottle that night and Im not even going to tell u what happened

Re: MTI H/C Camaro VS. MTI H/C Corvette BTW: Both of us had slicks. Just goes to show that its different on the street.
We also both have the 3000 stall.
I have found respect for Corvettes.

Re: MTI H/C Camaro VS. MTI H/C Corvette Im driving his car this Friday bc I know that car does better than a 12.3! It will prob. go 11.7, and a 11.2 probably at a track like HRP in Houston.

Re: MTI H/C Camaro VS. MTI H/C Corvette HRP is amazing. I've never ran it, but seen NHRA Oreilly nationals this year and records were breakin like crazy. Guys I know run there all have very fast time. I really believe it could be the best track in the country..

Re: MTI H/C Camaro VS. MTI H/C Corvette Oh, and by the way. This is a good post to show to all people who always want to compare C5, SS, and WS6. Same mods down to the tires. After you get to drive his car you might even end the damn debate finally.. I thank you..

Re: MTI H/C Camaro VS. MTI H/C Corvette With your mods though, you could easily take out most of the C5's out there 
...
I'd sure love to have his big brother with those mods... :p

Re: MTI H/C Camaro VS. MTI H/C Corvette First two vettes I ever drove were 90 and 92 LT5s. Interestingly the 90 felt the strongest but was unfortunately totaled. Going to be an expensive, but very cool, car to maintain through the years.
