Default ran my buddie's 2010 gt

i raced my buddies 2010 stock gt, did a few 40-50 rolls. first run we had to shut down due to traffic. 45-65 and i had half a car on him. i was a little disappointed. the 2010 seems pretty strong for what it is for a 105+ trap car stock. now we also did a 50-90 and i put a car on him and shut it down. the tune really pulls up top in the rev range i've seen. he said he ran a stock manual 06 gt and pulled it good, and he was impressed with how much quicker mine is. i also was a bit scared because the road we ran on was pitch black with no cars, and i'd never driven down it. i think if we had hit triple digits i would've kept pulling a lot more, but i shut it down because i was uncomfortable with the location. seem like i did alright? the 50-90 was the best run we had. i missed a shift on one of our runs too......embarassing

The '10's did have 315 HP stock to your 300 HP stock. With your CAI/tune you are probably making a little more power than he is, but not a whole lot.

Is his car an auto or manual? What rear end gears are in the two cars? With the power levels being close these things will have a significant impact on the runs.

Those runs are way too short to display dominance on closely powered cars... really need to a longer race before ones power really starts to show over the other one unless you are dealing with completely lopsided numbers. I'd say you did fine in a short run like that but to get a good feel for how much quicker/faster you are you would need a good run to the triples.
