or a engineer with a brain.
I'm down with running one. I'd like to see where I'd sit in comparison.
From looking at that race, niether one of the drivers were all that great, I'm thinking that the V-6 was an auto. Race probaly go to you.
GM LS3/2/1 boys are just now getting into their crawls that a smaller motor is going to give them real trouble.
hate to say it but my next car is going to be a cadillac cts-v. the 2011gt will be for fun driving.
yeah, some of the guys are a little anxious, but most of us, welcome the opportunity. It should be a nice shootout between the ls3 and the 5.0 cars. Last Friday at HRP, LMR's 2010 went 9.91 at 128(no 4th gear). The car went 9.9's @144mph a few weeks earlier without the right traction. In Houston, we have 2010 camaro's in the 500+rwhp area with stock heads from Gforce and LMR, and some solid 10 second cars on motor. LMR's car is expected to go 9.0-9.4s in the next couple weeks.
My old shop, Strictly Performance had their brand new 2011GT out last Friday at HRP(paper tags). Car went 11.8's fully gutted with bolt ons, gears, cage etc. I might call Richard tomorrow to see if he will let me know the setup on the car. It was already on the trailer by 7:30 on Friday, and they had a crowd.
There are a lot of 9-10 second ls1-ls6 head cars running 9-10's NA. Even with an IRS, like Rob's car.

The new cars 5.0's are welcomed, and long overdue. But, I guarantee you that many LSX guys are not shaking in their boots. They want the challenge. In the end, it's good for all of us.
I figure I got no change winning, but I just want to know. Anyone find a 1/4 mile time for the V6?
wow not bad at all, would definitely get one if I had the chance. V6 is rollin with the big boys now.
Thats one of the best sounding V6s on the road
Sounds better than I had imagined. However, I still think the VQ35HR motors in the G35 and 350Z cars sound better
