This LT1 bird and myself were at the track doing about a 65 roll. He dropped his gear and I did also and we had at it. Anyway, I steadily pulled away from him. About 6-7 car lengths from begining to about to 115ish where he let off. What are those cars putting down at the wheels? How do they compare with the LS1?

It's more like a MAch 1 vs a 96-98 Cobra

Yeah I was kidding LOL... LT1 ftl though, they aren't the best motors. They can be made to have power, about like a NPI motor can make power, after a lot of work (or a lot of nitrous ).

How do you start at a 65MPH roll at the track?? Do you floor it from a stop in the staging lanes and pass through the tree at 65MPH??


Or are we talking a road racing type of track??
