I am in no way saying the LS1 is unbeatable, because it is. I am in no way staying they will always be faster, someone is always faster.
What I am saying is that BAB beat either a less skilled driver(full exhaust/intake bolt on LS1 running 12.8's), or a car that didn't make as much power as it should given the 3+ car lead and the info. I even gave him kudo's right off the bat for winning. What I find it hard to believe that people chime on here saying their friends that have bolt on LS1's running times I have seen damn near stock LS1's with a DR run. You also have people here making comments as if they know a little sumthin about them, yet the comments are purely assinine and show they really have no clue about the LS1 and should not even have posted. Yes Greg, I am referring to you. Still waiting for you to back up your claims that a bolt on LS1 won't run 11's...oh wait, I backed up mine like I always do
I am different because I have owned both. I race both and not only associate in the Mustang community, but also in the LS1 community. I have been lucky that the car club's I am in has the first ever Forced Induction 6 speed 1st in the 9's and trapping at 148 mph(daily driven and full weight) also that same car making 1000 rwhp in a 3400+ car. Not to mention a few other 600-800+ rwhp LS1 cars. I have personally seen plenty of Bolt on LS1's run mid 11's and seen some stalled auto/bolt on LS1's with a stock 3.23 gear run mid 11's. I am in a different world and see the different side everyday than anyone here and that is why my views are not opinionated, but factual.
Thank You
