I ran 8.3 @ 97.4 with street tires, without good traction till third gear. You damn 03 boys, I don't know why you guys think you have the end all be all in the pony wars.

Like I said, my Z will handle your 03.

That said, your modded 03 runs quick. (as it should) But my modded LS1 runs quicker. And mine is paid for, and yours isn't.

Now I just got to figure out what to do with that extra 15K I will have laying around after I put your 03 in the rear view.

dude I am not hater. i have never said anything bad to you or your car or any other f-bodies who is running good times.

there are certain things. I ran one of the most respectable time out of a "PULLIED ONLY" cobra. people with the same set ups still running 12s and some in high 11s and i ran low 11s. thats the point. I guess you didn't relaize that part.

I could careless if your LS1 traps or runs faster than me. I only spent 1k in the mods and guess what, i dont have to touch my motor and run 9s.

please don't bring LS1 vs. cobras. totally different 2 animals if you ask me! both have its own goods and bads!

you need to learn to respec. I don't own a rice, I own a cobra.

**djvaly** · 10-26-2007, 08:15 AM

before this gets outta hand. let's not turn this thread into something else...
so race what u brought and I hope you brought enough... who cares who's dropped more money into their car. I can make a tin box do 9s with $2000 bucks (just a silly example) but... both platforms LSx and SVT are great.

I would really like to see that slip.

**djvaly** · 10-26-2007, 08:23 AM

97mph is very high, that time should be more like 7.0, even high 6s

**Mr. Luos** · 10-26-2007, 08:33 AM

Not so concerned about the ET as the trap speed.

400RWHP isn't enough to get going 97MPH in the 1/8. Of course...spinning gives you more time to get going faster.
I make roughly 430-440RWHP at altitude and trap 91MPH in the 1/8 mile.

**djvaly** · 10-26-2007, 08:55 AM

480rwhp me at 500 ft altitude, 93mph... I agree with you Luos.

**tigersport14** · 10-26-2007, 09:51 AM

i trapped 82 in my stock t/a... it was intense

Not that I even care but Im pretty sure youre just throwing numbers around. You are trying to say you ran 97.4 mph with a 2.0+ 60' (no traction) ?? Is that what youre saying? With only 404rwhp? I had 420-430rwhp never dynoed after the last cam TSP 239/600 and I had a 1.77 60' and still only ran 93 mph at the 1/8 and went 11.40 @121. That was a strong run for a DD with only 420rwhp on DR's.

You ran faster than that with LESS POWER and LESS TRACTION......??

Id have to see a slip to believe Roastem. Power and times dont add up with no traction "until 3rd".

My SS had good traction after 2nd all the time with 275 Falken streets.

On a side note, good run man.
