How do you get that. I HAVE an LS1 that has 2.73 gears in it. The autos came with either 2.73's (GU2) or the performance axle which includes 3.23's (GU5). the Six speeds have 3.42 (GU6) gears.

Merc...i say you could beat an LS1. i Beat a couple in the 1/8 in my stangs which ran 14.0s. But after the 1/8 to about low 100's the LS1's pulled like mad. Seeing how most Stangs with your mods run low 14's and a couple high 13's at 99-100 or so, thats what makes it so tough to believe. i go to the track a couple times a week and have gone for years.

As far as not wanting to run the car???? You run all the time on the street and not on the track???!!! OK? Man you cannot pull me off the track. Its safer, and you get some times, and even start, don't have to worry about who kicks it first BS. If you had done that then people might not question you as much. The first time is always the most nervous---heck Sedanman is the first person to take me to the track years ago.....and i thank him so much for that. If he wouldn't have i would still be like you runnin on the street and getting BS races .

Sedanman is a straight shooter also, but without times you are beating, by a pretty good distance, some powerful cars.

I like your car man, and appreciate anyone who can drive them well. Get some times and/or dyno numbers. As for not having the time or money, SAVE some, get some time off and have fun at the track where the races are even starts and side by side. None of that he was behind me and i was pulling him crap. Anyways. Like i said i wish we were close for some friendly races.
