I raced my buddies 00 SS. Results inside.
We raced twice. the first time we started at about 10mph up to 100 and i beat him by 1 car. The 2nd time we started the same, except i closed off the cut-out and i beat him badly. :confused: Any reason?????? His SS is an m6, ram-air of coarse, and borla cat back. Overall i was VERY pleased with the results. Im thinking when i go to the track i should be pretty good in the 12's. :)
THis was on a closed road btw, i dont condone street racing :D |
Re: I raced my buddies 00 SS. Results inside.
Good run on your part. He probably should be able to beat you or start catching you in the latter half of the 1/4, but it sounds like you have a strong LT1 and him having a weak LS1. What's your best time in the 1/4 and or dyno numbers?

sounds like driver to me. he should have won i would tend to think.

Re: I raced my buddies 00 SS. Results inside.
well, i ran a 13.5 before the headers and the 1.6rr's. So im probably close if not in the 12's. He has run his SS at the track and it ran a 13.1. He is a pretty good driver.

FWIW, my car made more power and torque on the dyno with the cutout closed. Yours may like it closed too.

Re: I raced my buddies 00 SS. Results inside.
ya, having an open cut out gives you lots of noise but not much else if you've got a good flowing exhaust.

Perhaps your cutout is causing a bit of false knock to be picked up? May want to log a few WOT runs, or maybe just throw a lt4 km? Nice run :D

Re: I raced my buddies 00 SS. Results inside.
maybe its just my luck..but my bolt on lt1 never has had a problem with a stock ls1..maybe its my gearing? or maybe its because the powerbands fo the two engines are different..i know ls1s are peakier..but i would definately say a full bolt on lt1 puts out more power then a stock ls1

I think you misunderstood. I was just referring to Speed_demo24's response to stik6shift93's post :) I believe ya :D And yes weight plays a big part in what options are for each car.
