IRL vs. LT1

Was at the gas station and just got a full tank a gas at 27 dollars a ounce. But anyway. A guy in an lt1 camaro was parked there and when he came out he kinda looked at me and as he was driving away was like. "Wanna race?" I yell, "sure."

That look of odd suprise came across his face so we headed out to a little straight stretch and when we went out I told him to go whenever he felt like it.

He mashed it and it smoked like a diesal. I was already in second so I was right behind him. Passed him quickly and proceeded to pull buses.

The lt1 was stock and had 30 day tags. I talked to the guy and popped my hood as he said jesus god :P

it was a fun experience. Been trying to get a race with their big brother. So far. no luck

yeah 2.5 will blow **** up. 2.6 will most likely reduce the life of ur engine by pushing the supercharger passed its max recommended speed. i know at 6850 rpms the supercharger is overspinning with just a 2.7 on; which is what i have on now. so a 2.6 i would imagine is somewhere around 6500 rpms.
