alright.. if you look at the extent they went to with the c5 z06 vs the plain c5 to save weight you'll see what I'm saying about how they didn't really do anything for weight savings.. they just beefed up (added weight usually) what was needed to handle the extra power.

^^ better video. for some of the gto guys to cry about. Don't get me wrong i LOVE gto's, it's just funny how often i see ls2 owners say it's a drivers race between a gt500 and an ls2...maybe if the gt500 driver blows and the gto driver is a god...

Honestly having owned both I would say that the GTO was having a serious problem.That looked as bad as the race between me in my GT500 and a lightly modded 03' GT.I like the vid but something really seems wrong.A GTO with those mods should be able to better keep up with a mid to high twelve second stock car.HMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

why is a kid that young driving a GT500 anyway
yeah, kids these days. A kid at my high school got a brand new gt500 when he was a FRESHMAN and only 15 years old. I wonder what he pays for insurance

It's almost like the GT500 was so new the S/C wasn't even working yet. Couldn't hear the whine or the engine or anything. Than again his windows were down.

&lt\\;P&gt\\;&amp\\;nbsp\\;&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;The GTO weighs way to much to hang with the GT500, 400 hp is just not enough.&amp\\;nbsp\\;If you’ve ever seen a stock C6 race a stock GTO you’ll know how much difference weight can make.&lt\\;/P&gt\\;

+1 I didn't hear the GT500 blower either...probably couldn't even hear it over the vette's exhaust
