Got my first 5.0 kill

Posted By: 91_gta On: 03-19-2010 @ 17:42:51         Reply | Edit
Raced a 92 gt with headers back exhaust and short throw shifter from a roll of 35 and pulled em by 2-3 cars.

I always thought those cars where alot faster?

I thought he would hand me my ass. I have heard of those cars running 14.7 stock with a good driver.

Puts me at 2-0

I have only raced a 79 camaro 305 carb
92 gt stang 5.0

I've seen a well driven 5.0 GT run a 14.4 stock, and heard of LX's running 13's with almost no mods. That being said, alot of those car are tired out by now (high miles and what not) and driving has ALOT to do with it. Either way, very good kill! I remember the first time I killed a 5.0 and I definitely know the feeling. Bask in the glory!

I was beating my friend at the track in et by about .3 sec and he has an 87 gt with heads gears tremec 5 speed cam intake injectors and a different computer etc. He would have had me but I made him run street tires so it would be more even since I was on street tires. He wasnt happy since he didnt get to rub it in that he was faster. I on the other hand rubbed it in the rest of the day

LOL, that's funny, but remember that at the end of the day tires if just another mod. That'd be like making someone remove their headers because you don't have them. Like I said in the other post, make drag radials your next mod and you'll be quite pleased I think.

To say you made a true kill though you need to start from the tree lights not @35 an hour but yeah you would prob. still would win. with the tpi.

I'm definitely one to say that a true "bragging rights" race should be from a stop, but either way, he still won that particular race.
