Very good!

I have always appreciated the LS1s. My first performance car was one of the 260hp 4.6L V8 Mustangs... I had that thing geared to hell (4.10s) with full bolt ons; I could hang with you LS1 guys through the first couple of gears but by the time you'd hit 3rd it was over. Nothing was more intimidating for me than seeing an SS or WS6 in my rear view mirror. When I got my Z i'd still get a chill when I saw one... and even with the 5.0 I just assume that any LS1 left on the road is probably modded to hell.

Thanks man.

Mine definitely isn't modded like most, lol. Truly just LT headers, small cam, and a tune. Thanks again!

Wish I had mine when the new 5.0's came out.

I believe the OP wants a rematch.

V8Killer · 09-21-2011, 04:14 PM

Josh how is it a rematch when we didn't even run? LOL

DTHPROOF · 09-21-2011, 08:14 PM

Want to make a collage of timeslips? lol

V8Killer · 09-22-2011, 09:48 AM

Ya we could just make sure you take out the ones Jamie did and that will be cool.

I think you all should just put on some boxing gloves and go at it and not speak through the cars

I LOVE boxing

They'd still be faster, lol. I drove my black car to a 13.2 @108 with garbage 2.2 60' times 4 consecutive runs. This car is no different, just a lot more on the deep end. And no boxing here, I got nothin' but love for the man; plus, he'd beat my ***!

V8Killer · 09-24-2011, 11:50 AM

That may be true but you also have to look at how much track time I have.This past weekend would only make it 3 times that I have ever been to the track to your many passes at CPD. Hopefully next weekend stays clear and sunny so that way I can crush your times into the ground but I don't think I'll get your trap speed.

Too bad I Couldn't run this camara. Get me ur address Ryan to I can mall
The rest. Sorry!

V8Killer · 09-26-2011, 06:57 AM

Address for the ring?

ihatepotholes · 09-29-2011, 01:35 AM

only fanboy like Methodical4u would believe stock Z can be as fast as a LS1 camaro, or na z has a chance against a LS1 with cams and bolt-ons...

it's not what our cars are for.

I'm a fanboy? I've owned 2 Evo's ... 1 of which would have stomped either of the cars in this thread son... don't speak until you know what you're talking about. Maybe you like to hang on the

of LS1 drivers... that's your thing. A straight line is fine until we come up on a few turns too. Like I said before... why don't they do a 1/4 and then a road track and see how things pan out?

Oh and by the way... we have no cams... we haven't even cracked the VVEL and are running low 12's with minimal mods and you're actually comparing this to a V8? Not to mention a V8 that EVERYONE and they Mother has... the Z is a better looking, better quality and overall better car than many of those domestic POS cars.

What a bunch of bs. Everyone here knows you talk outta you ***. Take your ricer math else where. You think you are the only person who has owned an evo? Go read my posts on evom or my350z. Im done wasting my time on a keyboard warrior like you.
