DA was 3323

I drove both my car (SS) and the wife's car (5.0) tonight within 15 minutes of each other. Say what you want but with the same driver, powershifting both cars, same track, same 60'... the 5.0 was simply faster and would have run even better had it not spun through half of second gear and the first part of third gear.

SS - 13.3 @ 108 2.0 60'
- CAI
- Flowmaster Hush Power Mufflers
- VMAX Throttle Body
- Factory High Octane Tune (Fuse Pull)

5.0 - 13.1 @ 109 2.0 60'
- K&N drop in air filter
- Flowmaster American Thunder Mufflers

Corrected for altitude the times would have been:
SS - 12.7 @ 112
5.0 - 12.5 @ 113

I've seen these races many times from a dig and a roll, it's a drivers race everytime even though I know the 5.0 eats souls.

I saw a white SS with black stripes yesterday in the Phoenix area and the vanity plate said "BAA BYE." Hope he plans on racing V6 Mustangs and other Camaros with the car. :lol:
