Upcoming: Tuned SS/TC vs stock FRC C5 vette
 
This race will happen this week from a ricer roll. My car is an 08 ss/tc with an hp tune, k+n, and zzp offroad downpipe. Best et of 13.4 at 110mph before the downpipe.

His car is a literally bone stock 1999 FRC vette with a 6 speed. As for driving I think he may be Michael Schumacher's/John Force's long lost son.

As much as I hate to admit it I asked for a roll race. What do you guys predict from a 30-40mph roll? I'm thinking the race will be VERY close.

you will win

If you go from 30-40 and he starts in 1st gear he should get you. If he starts in 2nd gear you'll jump him and he may or may not pull back way up top.

FRC package was renamed z06.. I'd be careful. They are like 50hp less than a z06

That's exactly why I think the race will be close from a roll :usa:

I may need you to take care of a WRX for me. It's an 06 with a 20g turbo with full bolt-on's...just put down 377whp and 330ish tq on 21psi. I know I won't beat that...but i'd like to find a cobalt that can :lol:

wantedSS/TC 08-24-2010 09:41 AM

Hmmmm. :)

He'll probably take me ... all depends though, is this a WRX or WRX STi (6spd).

I'm a little more confident against the 6spds than 5s due to ratios.

Although, I'd rather run him when I get WG tables and meth.

SSBalt 08-24-2010 02:00 PM

I've been dying to mess with a C5. Record the race and good luck!

a ss/tc will most likely have to be turbo swapped to beat those numbers. a 20g turbo on a wrx will hold power to redline, there wont be a spike or anything, itll just keep pulling. no offense but a k04 wont have the top end to keep up.

can i watch? lol

slowstang 08-26-2010 03:43 PM

Wanted - the wrx is a 5 speed. im not sure what kind of dyno he ran on either.

tREBs 08-26-2010 03:55 PM

377whp and 330tq on a WRX with a 20g?!?!? are you certain its a 20g??

Most STI's with a 20g will see mid 300's at 21psi...
a wrx will see low 300's! that doesn't seem right...

thats not a stock vette

slowstang 08-26-2010 04:35 PM

The race between me and the vette was going to happen last night after the track but wifey came with him. Taking it easy with his new car he went 13.7 at 107 with a 2.3 60ft. It will go in the low 13s at 108-109 if he gets aggressive with the driving.

glhs379 08-26-2010 04:44 PM

108 sounds about right for a stock ls1 vette
