Bentley Continental GT vs LS1 Z28 Posted By: Silver02Z28 On: 03-18-2010 @ 01:37:50 Reply | Edit My boss has a new Bentley Continental GT. We were both driving to a meeting and I was following him in my 02 Z28. I got next to him at a light with no traffic ahead. He rolled down his window and asked if my car was fast off the line. I told him that it was hard to launch so he would win. I know he loves to drive fast, and I new he wanted to race me. The light turned and he got a jump. That beast makes 552 hp and has AWD. He got about 1/2 car but by the time I nailed third, I had him by a 1/2. I ended up about a car ahead of him when we shut down at about 80 or so. I have a DIY rear mount turbo with low boost. -- http://www.junkyardturbos.com (DIY rear mount turbo) 02 M6 Z28 Posted By: CATransam On: 04-05-2005 @ 02:34:36 Reply | Top | Edit that sounds about right, but u still need to get a tune, those bentlys have a mean fuking top end too, i had a firend with a busa get outran by one on the freeway... he almost cried... they are supposed to top out around 19X -- "No way dude...i saw an LS1 fight godzilla and the LS1 beat godzilla and it looked in the air and was like what do you think of that god?

Nobody beleived me, but that's what I ran. I'm not sure what rwhp I'm at right now, but like you said, with the low boost the gain is moderate. I'm probably in the mid 12's at that level of boost. My boss made money in sports equipment. He has millions. He now owns the company that I work for.

I hardly think Carlsbad was a "cheater track". It was hard to hook and very bumpy. I remember 03 Cobra's running mid 13's there. There were other Z28's running mid 13's also the day I ran my 12.8.

Posted By: CATransam On: 04-28-2005 @ 00:44:15 Reply | Top | Edit TandA dont be a dumb ass, if a car blows by you on a bike doing an honest 190+ then you take off after it, how quick do you think you could catch it? its going to take you time to match its speed on a bike say its gona take you a good 30 seconds to get up to 200 mph at least (i dont know much about bikes and could care less so roughly) at roughly 190 it will do over a mile and a half (or roughly a half a mile more than you) in that amount of time, to make up that distance at maby a 15-20 mph difference is going to take you another min, at least to make up. thats simple physics, now how many people race for more than a min and a half? not many people i know, so inessence the bike lost as it was behind the bently from beggining to end, ( in retrospect it was not realy a race since the bently seemed to be more toping out his car than racing a kid on a bike) but all the same he explained it as a lost race so thats how i portrayed it here so if you want to debate this further, dont try to discredit me here take it up with me on aim or STFU. -- "No way dude...i saw an LS1 fight godzilla and the LS1 beat godzilla and it looked in the air and was like what do you think of that god?
