Redline vs. LS1 round 2

Friday night me and a few friends were out cruising around and as we were going over one of the bridges my friend with the Z28 slowed down so I could get next to him. Now just so you know his mods are custom intake (pretty proud of that since I made it), SLP loudmouth catback, and tuned by me. This race he was on the stock timing table since he has been seeing some KR lately for some reason. His AFR is still leaned out to 12.2:1 instead of the stock 11.7 and all fuel adders (piston protection, cat over temp, etc., for anyone fimiliar with HPTuners) are turned off. My mods are in my sig along with a 2.7" pulley I just threw on, Hurst short throw, and more aggressive tune. We went from a 30 which was a really bad spot for both of us, especially him, but we had to do it kind of fast. He honked it down and I stayed next to him for about a second or two then started to pull pretty nasty. I shifted to 3rd at around 65 (my drag radials were still on since I had been practicing lainching, they are small so my gears are short with them on) and shot out a big fireball. I had about a car on him on the shift. I continued to pull pretty nice until I let off around 100 (so about 90, remember DR's). I had about 3 cars on him when I lifted. We slowed down and he pulled up next to me like what the hell! All I said was 2.7 FTW

It was a fun little race, but as promised I will get a video of us running from a better speed after I finish tuning him. I just thought I would share this fun
