my vote is for the vette... my 07 ls2 will out run with my intake and full exhaust 10 SS

Assuming everything goes well, your looking at 400-420whp with bolt ons and tune. Even if you upgrade suspension your probably going to loose. You weigh a lot more than he does (+400 lbs). Add a decent cam and ported heads and you can take him (if you want to claim N/A vs. N/A).

I think you should be able to take him. I'm only tune/exhaust on my GT and I have yet to lose to a stock LS2 or LS3 Corvette.

I have driven a stock LS2 vette and a stock LS3 and L99 camaro and the vette will take both of them without an issue. Adding those bolt ons won't change a thing thanks to the vette being so much lighter.

Is he manual? If he can drive an m6 he can hit 11's stock, you wouldn't stand a chance without a cam. If he can't drive you might have a shot

Very few have hit 11s stock, and most I've seen on the fast lists on their forums are well into the 12s. I think with the mods he has, if the vette is stock, he should be able to take it.

Yeah reason why I said "if he can drive"...But I don't feel confident that op can take him regardless, unless op is an incredible driver himself...

usnatclee · 10-03-2013, 08:52 PM

To give you an idea the mods on my cars are listed in my signature. The Corvette best is 12.75 @ 114 in 90 degree heat and the Camaro best is 12.97 @ 109 in 100 degree heat. Both are autos and were spinning ALOT both off the line and at shifts. I hope that helps.

Good driver, and if you happen to be lucky enough to run a track that sees negative DA.

Guess im gonna have to start thinking of a cam package then... Maybe give him a year or something and then go for it.

Just run him and see, everyone will have fun I promise.

Some five or six years ago I ran and skull drug a C5 vette with my 2005 Mustang GT w/bolt ons at the strip. Granted it was an automatic vert with a 2.73:1 rear end, basically the slowest C5 corvette ever made, but it was a blast all the same.

+1 08 LS3s pull my 2SS by 4-6 cars and all I have is an intake, with the mods he listed that should about even out that 5 cars.
