beat a LS1 SS
i pull out of the BMW dealership (seeing a friend) and saw a white LS1 SS going by as i pulled out. so i hurried and got beside him at the light. when the light changed we both stood on the go petal and i got him by about a car, then we ran again from a 30 mph roll. i got him again. my car is a 97 SS that is bone stock. how can this be? both cars 6spd and he didn't seem to spin anymore than me. i always thought the LS1 cars were quite a bit faster than the LT1 cars. i have found that i have beat 4 cars that i shouldn't of beaten. were the 97 SS cars that underrated? i beat a 02 Cobra (CAI , exhaust , pulley) a 07 BMW 335I (twin turbo car) , a 94 Vette (LT1 auto) and a Infinity G35 ( more of a slaughter than a kill)

oh there was no doubt about them knowing they were racing. the guy in a LS1 SS started it, me and Mustang ran with a flagger and the BMW 335I is a good friend of mine. ...they all knew without a doubt

A guy I work with said that a few years back his friends LT1 police package Camaro would out runhis 99 LS1 car. Not sure how but maybe they will??? Driver differences? Probably. neither car is a slouch thats for sure.

okay first off....i am no "kid" , second it may not of been an 02 cobra but it was a non SC cobra. i know i can't touch one of the SCed Cobra unless the driver is a complete dip. i have have several F bodies but this is my first 4th gen. i had a Vortec headed 383 powered 87 that ran 7.30's in the 1/8. i know alittle bit about fast cars.
