don't sweat the heat these guys dish out over beating an LS1.. you still have a great car and they were giving a guy with 295rwhp crap for being close and slightly beating stock ls1s.. (and I believe he has over 300rwhp with his mods) I'm surprised just looking at your dynos that you were able to beat ls1s.. a couple hundred pounds could equal up to 20hp but.. eh.. should be a close race either way.. the c5 jumping out must have been nice power band for him and a bad one from you.. I'm guessing any LS1s youve raced and won would be because you out drove them..
no one said he had a bad car
and the reason the vette jumped on him is the powerband, look at the dyno charts man, that explains everything.

The lousy vet driver made that video more impressive than it should have been.Nice car. My next project is going to be a fox on spray.
