2011 Camaro vs Blown 5.0

[DietCoke]

Met a new guy at the car spot tonight and we arranged a race.

2011 Camaro
N/A 429, 4L80 + stall, 602rwhp, Welds + mickeys, 3610 lbs

5.0 Mustang
TVS 2300+ small pulley 13 PSI, Magnum 6 Speed, bolt-ons, Welds+mickeys 697rwhp, 3650 lbs



5.0 had a 200lb passenger, camaro did not.

We were door to door mostly. He'd pull a fender and then lose it when he had to shift, since I have auto magic. From a 40-140 roll... was an awesome race. Both cars are solid low 10 second cars, with the mustang having the clear roll race advantage. If he didn't have a passenger, no doubt he'd have pulled a car or so to 140. Maybe he's a member here? op: He ended up out about a fender at the end.

We had a rematch tonight. 5.0 trans was fixed, I added my 3.91 gears, and he also added a bigger throttle body to his previous 702whp setup. The results are as follows (a W for him, by a nose @ 140)

That is an impressive car you got. How the hell you knocked out so much weight? I thought camaros were about 4100?

They're 3850 or so rolling off the factory. I've got a bunch out of it... trying to get to 3500 empty

Atlanta Motor Speedway. I went there for the friday nite drags and thought I saw your car. Same color and stripes on the same wheels....

Was something in the video comments that the Mustang was granny shifting due to trans still being in break in period.
