well got another run and no i didnt win, but i garuntee the vette didnt like me that close for that long...
we played alittle back and fourth, through traffic just moderatly getting in front of traffic ..at one point he rev'd at me...him and a passenger...(assumed to be his wife) this guy was 50 or so....oppps caught a light...i rev'd to make sure he knew i wanted some....GREEN...bamn he's a car out but he shifts and it's a half a car...pulls out to a full car again and shifts half a car ,..pulls out to alittle more than a car and we shut it down...obviously at that point he was gonna really start to make distance on me, though third gear is ok...it's not my cars strong point.....not when going up against the big boys...this was yesterday...tonight, got another LT-1.(95 formula)..no biggie it's obvious that those cars in stock form dont stand a chance...285hp and 325 lb.ft.,,...it was a young kid in this car he was complimentary asked what it was ...asked turbo? ...he was cool...shawn if youre reading, even in third you dont get any back just keep givin'


oh and BTW say what you want i expect some flack because there's no way any cl can hang with any of these cars...you cant go 2.0*** 60 foot on street tires and i must be on crack...enjoy

 

congratz man, glad you're showing the big boys what it's like to be picked on

 

Nice run man!!!!!

 

Where'd you get those C5 power numbers? They are wrong.

1997
Horsepower: 340 hp
Torque: 350 ft-lbs

1998-2000
Horsepower: 345 hp
Torque: 350 ft-lbs

2001-2003
Horsepower: 350 hp
Torque: 360 ft-lbs

These figures are for the LS1.

 

the only numbers i qouted were for the LT-1 95 formula ...dont know the numbers for the vette but, i thought it was 350hp/?

 

reading is FUNdamental

 

BTW i dont know how long you've had that avatar but it's funny as hell...what movie is that kine from? it's on the tip of my tounge

 

something with jack black maybe?

 

nice, as i was pullin onto the express way today i saw a drop top vette so i caught up to it just to see how bad it would kill me by , we got side by side at a light only to find out a mid forty year old lady was drvin it

 

Office Space

 

Nice race. I bet the Vette didn't know what the hell was going on.

 

Those 'vettes are VERY quick... I wouldn't mess with them unless I had NOS, S/C or a Turbo....

 

i have a chance to 80 with the SSR's and something that hooks up...trust me i will be posting a 8.7** soon...and for you babys 13.7 to 8

 

boy, your car must be fast, because those vettes run sub 5 sec. 0-60 and low 13's in the 1/4.

 

im only talking about hanging the first 1/8th..afetr which i expect they will pull pretty hard

 

I don't think you will hit an 8.7xx - Not to flame... but you need slicks and a LOT of horsepower. What are your dyno #'s... not estimated... actual. Also, you need to run in the 1/4-mile sometime!

 

after the new wheels = 1/4 mile runs


is this correct

 

yes...soon my friend soon

 

no that's fine...im talking with slicks...and im telling you i have alot in the bank out of the hole...ive managed 2.0** 60ft to a 8.969 with launching maybe 50% full out 8.79 ya maybe alittle wishfull thinking maybe...but 8.8 i know is there...wednesday is another good day looks like we shall see
