I've only raced 1 6.0 GTO.

Marched much harder then I anticipated. Several cars by 4th.

Stock for stock an LS2 GTO and an LS1 f bod are a drivers race. Ive owned both and know. The fastest listed stock times for a GTO are just as fast as the posted fastest stock f body times.

I thin one thing that is going on though is all the f bodies are good and broken in and the GTOs really arent yet, thats just my opinion.


Anyway to settle this Ill put my stock, well catback only, GTO against a stock f body and we will get it on vid to see what happens exaclty. Any takers???? Im ready to prove one way or the other.

I'm sure they are well matched. I only ran one before the cam swap but I had full bolt ons, so it was an easy kill. I find that they seem to be harder to lanch. Drivers race.
Never mind Fbodys are waaaaaaaay faster

It is a driver's race. I've raced quite a few but still haven't been beaten by one "yet". All my races were done with simple bolt ons at the most and was power-shifting. Not to be trash talking GTO's, looked at one for a while but passed on it for the 01 WS6. The midnight blue GTOs look fricking bad ***, and atleast the goat comes with a rear that won't break on stock power, lol.

it is sad when i hear this kind of crap here, most of the time i hear this at the mustang site. i understand the feud between ford and chevy but attacking your own kind is hard to understand. i know that launching is a problem. the suspension on the f-body is better for drag racing. gto better for touring applications. both are good cars.

Goat haters...

I own an Fbody. I look up to the GTO as a logical progression, sort of the next step once one outgrows the Fbody(not everyone does).

The interior, the overall design.. its a NICE looking car. Not nice looking like the Aussie bodywork, but I'd have to submit that the Fbody guys who hate on it.. just havent taken a closer look or worse yet... are jealous

**** I like them myself. I came real close to buying one before I got the WS.

Closest races I've had have been against LS2 GTOs - on the street. Unfortunately I've seen some bad showings at slippery dragstrips (Sac and Sears).

From a stop: Driver's race

My cousin has a stock 05 M6 GTO, and I have a 99 A4 Formula Hawk with a lid. It was a drivers race from a dig. I would get about a car or so from the launch, but he would come around me, not till about 115-120. I am sure the race would be pointless from a roll. (He would easily walk my car). I need mods, lol.

I had a full bolt on 6-speed Trans Am before and every time we raced I got him by about a car/car and a half when we both got traction, but I launched my car slightly better (no wheel-hop)

So the Lid LS1 is a draw with the GTO but the full bolt-on LS1 only wins by 1-1.5? Makes no sense...

With the A4 car I would out launch him and he would come around me at about 115-120. If he launched with me he would come around me quickly. The race was won at the launch in other words. Cliff notes: The GTO was faster, the A4 car launched better. = drivers race

With the M6 full bolt on car I would outlaunch him (as I said, no wheel hop) and I got him by about 1-1.5 cars by the time we shut down. Cliff notes: The GTO and full bolt on M6 TA were evenly matched.

Explain how this doesn't make sense.

Also if he wouldn't have had wheel-hop at the launch we would have been door to door. (M6 TA)

I have never seen a GTO come close to me yet!LOL Damn I'm an *******!LOL But seriously, why is it that they don't seem to perform well? There isn't a single GTO in the 11's around here?
