It was a close race.... i figured you guys would at least be interested to see what a 440whp 5.0 performs like.

A shelby gt350 i think would have a chance of pulling on the vette.

The hostility from you 2 guys is wierd and misplaced.

I like the new LT1, just can't throw a kids in the back.

Here is a video of me taping a racing in between a 510 whp Evo and a bolt-on ls3 vette. My car was a basic CJ intake and baby CJ exh cams at this point in time.

Good run and honestly surprised it was so close. The C7 is no joke. Not sure if my heavy, boat like 2015 auto could do the same. Though I did run a Caillac with the LS7 but a C7 it ain't. My car is an A6 with CAI, GT350 IM, long-tubes back, 430 at wheels, pulls to 8k rpm.

That it is. My evo is at 495 whp and it smokes my cobra (472 whp). It runs doors with stock or minor bolt on c7z's till I hit 5th gear.

He blew it up a couple months after this pull, it was a 6262 turbo--evo-x don't seem to hold-up quite as well as the previous generations.

Awesome man. Nice video. Although you might want to tell the camara man to turn the ****ing phone like someone that was born in the 21st century.

510 is awful low for what a 6262 can do. Either way he must've driven that car hard constantly or had not the most solid tune in it. Evo X's can handle just about as much as the previous geberations. Mines tuned real conservative with a Gtx3576r turbo

Don't know exactly what happened, but I know it had a 6262 and blew. He is a friend of a friend. I could message my buddy and find out, they work at the same place.
