Trans Am vs. LS1 GTO
I was out riding around yesterday in some damn fine weather when I run up on a very clean bright ass red LS1 GTO with 2 guys in it early 20's...
I caught up with him with no real traffic ahead of us going about 45mph and as soon as I got beside him I heard him downshift and I went WOT and quickly put about 1 1/2 cars on him untilI shut down at 90. We catch the next light and windows came down and the driver points at his passenger and jokingly says "I got an extra body in the car" We all laughed and when the light turned green I hooked almost instantly with my new Goodyear Eagle F1 and put about 2 cars on him and by time I shut down at 100 he was at least 3-4 cars behind. Never asked what he had done. It was a 6-speed and had exhaust Im sure of. Im confindent it would have gotten way worse the faster we got. Thumbs up in the end and the first run since adding the heads, cam, and headers. Dynotune coming within the next moth...

Re: Trans Am vs. LS1 GTO
Nothing like having the better looking and the faster car. Suprised you hooked so well off the line at the light. Must have been your day.

The guy thats tuning the car said he wouldnt drive it till it gets tuned but it seems to run fine. No drivability problems at all and since it it impossible for me not to drive it I try not to go WOT off the line. Also the Goodyear Eagle F1s I have are brand new and grip very well. I like them a lot. Quote:
