I’m game. My first pass after an NMCA True Street cruise was 9.59@154 rowing a Magnum XL.
15” bias ply ETRs tho, it’s fun on the street and a roll on 315/50/17 ETRs :)
I’ll be at a few events this year and have better video.

perfect should easily beat me! Should be fun

Edit: id like to see a upper/ lower pulley e85 13/14 gt500 vs the 20 gt500. I realize the Trinity is maxed, but similar mods and trap speed.

SP has a vid up of roll races of his super snake vs his 2020. Not quite the same and they are both on street tires. Still they are pretty well matched. I think the super snake would win if it could get traction.

Good close races but man, the gt500s record isn’t doing so great. All the videos I’ve seen has them losing. The cars are already almost full bolt on, minus long tubes.

Hownmuch power do you think is untapped in the gt500 without getting more serious like porting the blower or a blower swap and cams eventually?

GT500 definitely sucks balls . Car has 3 mods and it beat built HCI 7.0 liter engine C6Z with 150shot, drag wheels and 1000lb lighter,.
Stayed right there with built HCI 7.0 liter engine with aftermarket supercharger , drag wheels and 1200lb weight advantage .
What a horrible performing car, with 3 simple mods it couldn't beat fully built lighter cars with 7.0 liter engines

Don’t forget the stock ones still have a warranty. Id like to see stock 500 vs stock z06, or stock ZL1. Close enough in cost for comparison.

Of all these, I’m most impressed By the TT GT. Mod for mod the vette weighs at least 1.5k lbs less and costs about the same factor more. Yet, doesn’t pull the TT GT.

I'm a huge fan of all the cars in the video. I crack up every time I hear Monster Mike yelling.
Exactly. Great group of high powered cars doing daytime runs.
Should have been a ton of fun.
From experience I know that GT500 combo is good for a 1000rwhp around 22psi which should be fine with 9.5:1 on ethanol.
The big question is the DCT and we’re all waiting for the TCM unlock.
I guarantee this is a TREMEC unit going in Mustang and Corvette, so it’s when not if.
Still, it’s over 4000# so lightweighting will help too.

Maybe but it’ll still be fun. I love your car man, should definitely make me work for it.
I have a roll race waiting for a 13-1400hp TT CTSV wagon, but it’s 3750# vs 4300#, both 6-speed cars.
I’d like to try some 1/2 mile with my car, I’m sure yours would rock but I’m glad we still take it to the 1/4 not just roll.
Keep the vids coming.

GT500 uses the TR-9070 and the C8 uses the TR-9080

I think it's priced fair enough unless you're fool enough to pay over MSRP.

2.75 upper pulley and offroad midpipe is a full bolt on car. LOL that's another level of stupidity


I don’t know if you’re referencing what I said but if you are I said almost full bolt on.

the car has a pulley swap, exhaust, and e85 already. What else is left? Headers and cold air intake maybe? Porter blower?

After that I don’t know if I would consider it “bolt on”.

You called a car almost FBO with 2 mods . That's lame

Sees like you are kind of clueless so I'll list them for you. That's a FBO list below
Small upper pulley, lower pulley , ice box , heat exchanger, throttle body , headers , exhaust , ,intake , drag radials , smaller lighter drag rims , ported blower , gears , ECU and TCM tune
