the 260hp sorta sucked but the torque was great, assuming you knew how to drive it. Unfortunately most people can't seem to handle a car that makes such great low end torque and thus why you saw 350s beat them here and there.

I was able to eek out a 13.99 with my bone stock '03, but mostly it was in that 14.0-14.2 range which was pretty comparable to the first 350, if not better.

It wasn't until I switched to 4.10 gears that the car really woke up. from basically 14 flat all the way down to 13.50. Low trap, but the car ripped from a dig. I remember hanging with LS1s through the top of 2nd. It wasn't til we hit third that their power advantage would commence with the rape.

It was a fun little car for sure.
