So, this guy I know just recently got himself a nice clean '98 GT M5 and as far as I know has done nothing to except a cat-back exhaust, CAI, shiny Cobra wheels, and a Zex kit of course. I can't even remember if it's a wet or dry shot, but I'm pretty sure he has AT LEAST the 100 jets in there. Now, I know that without that squeeze he really doesn't have much of a chance and I was supposed to run him a few weeks ago, but my opti-spark chose that night to tell me, "Fuck you!" Damn opti. So I'm probably going to run him sometime soon. So what do y'all think:

My LT1 M6 (virtually stock) with 4.10s and DRs
vs
a '98 GT M5 (virtually stock) with a 100 shot of squeeze or more, probably on street tires.

We both also have good driver mods.

Watcha think?

 

I'd bet on the stang, but i could be biased...

 

The tires should be the deciding factor here: street radials + N2O torque = futility, but he should have some damn good top end.

 

Call me crazy, but i will put my money on the stallion.

 

I think that would actually be pretty close.. remember those SN95's are DOGS... The juice takes care of that, but the LT1's are no slouchs either... with 4.10's that could be a monster, haha... I wonder how long a stock SN95 block will survive with a 100 shot...

 

I would say that it could be a good run between the cars.

Should be a long time as long as it was tuned.

 

it COMPLETELY depends what shot he is runnin, if its a 100 shot and drivers are equal you should NOT be able to win... you out weigh him by a good margin 300 lbs. and with the 100 shot he has more power too... 35HP... so it will be tough for ya... good luck REP. the LT1!!!

Lt1's and LS1's scare me.... id almost lean towards the LT1 just cus its a non-pi 4.6.

lilc, those V6's respond well to nitrous apparently

 

I noticed that as well. Got a dyno chart of that last 100 shot pull lilc?

 

I am willing to bet that the GT just smokes the tires. The LT has dr's which will be an advantage. Remember guys that a drag race is 99% launch.
