Got spanked by a ls7

Lesson learned....Don't give a gm performance ls7 test vehicle the jump..Especially when your trans slips as bad as mine between 2-3.
The first time we raced I got the jump and he stayed behind me when i get my phone out to record he got the jump and I couldn't even keep up. I've never even heard of a ls7 gto test vehicle. Anyone know any details on this? It had a gm performance test vehicle badge on the side with Huge ls7 decals on the hood scoop.

Im not sure what u were expecting...I think u would have a hard time w/ a stock LS1...let alone a LS7.

I see him taking a stock LS1 with his mods, but I completely agree about the LS7. While it's not going to be anywhere near C6Z06 levels considering its in a GTO, I'd say it'd be on par with an LS3 Vette. That race was over before it began.
