Default 2 kills with 2 Gtos!!

Well i had a run in with 2 Gtos. First one was a LS1 A4 car with just a CAI and borla exhaust. Well we went from 55-100 or so and I had about 5 cars on him. Next kill was a 6.0 Gto with a A4 as well. Now this was pre headers/tune. I had the headers on and the tune when I raced the LS1 gto. Anyways me and the 6.0 went from about 40-90 with me about 1/2 car ahead since I left a split sec quicker and very slowly pulling him. Im going to run him again tomorrow well il run them both again and get it on video this time so stay tuned...

Also the 6.0 gto had the same mods basicly. He had a magnaflow catback he said and also had a CAI with a predator tune I guess.. All I really had at the time was lid,UD pulley and a cutout. My car is full weight plus some.

Il have 2 video to post up probably late tomorrow night

Good kills. I have a LS1 GTO A4 with catback, cai, predator tune, and TB Bypass. Hopefully after I get LT's I'll be able to keep up with a mildly modded F-bod.

Il tell you what lets say 4 1/2 then and it was not less then that I also had a passenger and he didnt. I dont have a video but I will be sure to get one tomorrow. We will try for a 50-110 or so. When I just had a cutout and lid I pulled him by 2 or somaybe 2 1/2. Now with the headers and a few other little things it woke the car up big time

Also for what its worth I trapped 105 before the headers,UD pulley, and a base tune so now im going to the track tomorrow and with the nice cold air im guessing no quicker then a 107. If you figure the A4 gtos ls1 version traps 101-102 as what ive watched them trap stock with just exhaust and now I might be up around 107 its not to far off I dont think. I will have video tomorrow of it but since I wont have a passenger I dont think il just hold the camera out the window like I used to and since il be 150pounds light it should be 5 5 1/2 cars

I have a LS1 GTO A4 and I believe you pulled that hard. I have catback, cai, Predator tune, TB Bypass, and on a bad '60 foot I ran a 13.5 at almost 104. LS1 F-bods do better than that stock. An F-bod with my mods would be in the 12's easy with some tires. It's all about the weight difference.

the more the lengths get the harder it is to believe. but until proven otherwise i will go along and wait for the video. anything can happen in street racing.
