Raced 2 LS1’s in the last two weeks. The first was a 2000 Camaro Z28 M6 with Lid,cat-back, well thats all he said he had. I was running bald potenza 730, even heated them. So he pulls about 1 car to 50 and doesn’t pull anymore to like 90. I was a little mad cause I though with my headers I should about even with him. So last night I run another one. This one was a 2002 TA with ram air hood, he said he had a cold air box though 😕, M6, and a nice short shifter, I got new tires now soo I’m hoping to do better. I laid into to quick cause I saw him get the jump and spun like crazy. Anyway he got me by like 2 cars and he was still pulling. Both the raced my car was very hot and I no it probally would have ran better if it had sat for a while but I’m still mad. I really need a smaller pulley . ☹

> Most M6’s trap around 105-106. I have a lid, exhaust, and weak cam and I trapped at 109.74 so it would be possible for a stock car to be close to 110.
