got beat by a 09 challenger tonight :(

[Dangerous95lt1]

so this rich lil shit always talks about how bad ass his car is but wont race me so i see him at a spot light we take off and we race for prolly bout an 1/8th mile and he gets me by a car or car an 1/2

i dont think thats too bad from my ol $4000 lt1 but he wont beat me again pay day is thursday and im getting the bottle filled and making that srt challenger look like a bit$%

[Some_Random_Guy]

Slap on pair of headers and you wont need a bottle.

[Dangerous95lt1]

headers really make that much difference on an lt1?

[BLK95-Z]

Yeah for being a pig those Challenger's run pretty good. Im not sure headers will allow you to beat one with the rest of your mods but they will definetly help!

[El Super Kevbot]

This was originally my first asshole response to the kid. I personally deleted it, but wanted to post this as a public apology.

[Dangerous95lt1]

Man i wish i was as cool as you,

Nitrous wins races plain and simple its there to add power for a reason

and as for you El Super Kevbot umm your car prolly runs high 13s too so no reason to act like your the baddest on the planet and Grow up Peter Pan hmm seriously? trying to put down a fellow ltx guy sounds like your the one that needs to grow up,

winning is winning bud no matter whether your N/A or are on methanol or nitromethane or use Nitrous or Boost to do so, winning is winning and that is how it is plain and simple, the winner is the one is who crosses the finish line first and you can use whatver you want to get there in case you didnt know that,

:) have a nice day, El Dumb Ass

[BLK95-Z]

Man you have something cute to say about everyones kill stories dont you? lol

While your in this section do you have any cool kill stories to contribute? Because judging by the mods in your sig I wouldnt think so.....

[Badhawk]

Lets not turn this board in to shit like the other tech with all the bullshit. The op shared a story no reason to cut him down.

[SoulReaver]

Kev, you need to chill out and read our forum rules. Your talking down to this kid like he's an idiot. Your tone is completely uncalled for. Fortunately, I can read and have great comprehension skills. Even if I didn't, its pretty clear that you have an attitude problem.

Chill. Send me a pm if you have a problem. I don't want to see disrespect like this again.

[BLK95-Z]

Blk-95Z, your happy your stall, geared, and tuned LS1 barely caught up to a stock LT1? That sucks but Im glad your ok with it.

Meh...I wouldnt say happy, I thought it would be a cool kill story to tell on here. As said before, had I not annialated the tires through first gear things would have been different.

[Dangerous95lt1]

I was just trying to have a good thread not cause a bunch of issues. Ya I got beat by a 40000 dollar car but im not gonna use nitrous. Just bought a cc502 cam cheap and getting a stall :)

[SoulReaver]

Pm sent. Please keep the thread on target everyone.

[Z28pr0jekt]

Uhm some of the fastest cars in the world use nitrous so I don't see how it's a cheat? People mod their cars the way they want, some N/A some with boost some with nitrous. Learn a bit more about racing before deciding that a modification you don't like is a cheat.

[Dangerous95lt1]

I don't see how it is either. But it is what it is. Just ppl like to cut other ppl down. I was just discussing racing our lt1s something that we all love.

[Some_Random_Guy]

headers really make that much difference on an lt1?

yeah they really do. The labor is a pain in the ass but well worth the performance gain and sound. Once you get them installed i guarantee you'll be driving for the next week with your windows down and radio off just to hear the noise

[blackbird1084]

Getting beat by a rich kid does suck. That being said i've stomped a mud hole in many rich kids butts with not only my Trans am but my Srt-4 and the 04 gt i used to have. It's always great to see the looks on their faces when it happens too. And so what if he throws nitrous on a car that is still running 15 year old tech. That hemi has years of r&d behind it of course it's going to be faster right now. My srt-4 has ran a best of 13.42@113.55 with a dog slow 2.37 60ft. Guess what it didn't matter on the highway when i slaughtered an srt-8 charger with a snob for a driver. My old 04 gt ran 12.19@111.88 with a 1.66 60ft on just a 100 shot and when i beat an srt-8 challenger and a 2002 zo6 from stops and rolls neither of those guys even thought that was possible. I laughed all the way home each time. The zo6 owner didn't even care that it had nitrous on it he was just stunned he lost. And if you want a mod list i'll gladly type up exactly what each car had done at the time.

[blackbird1084]

Oh and headers add about 20 rwhp. My TA when it just had a few bolt-ons went from a 13.89@99 (52mm tb,cat-back,k&n filter, lca's, panhard rod) down to 13.30@101 with a 3500 stall and headers then 13.10@101 with dr's cutting a 1.75 60ft. It eventualy went 12.98@103.03 with bolt-ons before then motor blew due to the oil pump drive gear taking a crap on me.

[YZF]

I look at it this way...

His car makes 150hp more than yours and thats all the pavement he could put between the two of you in a race?

I absolutely love the fact these new 400+ hp cars cant roll out on my little 300whp car. What bragging rights do they really have besides a window sticker?

Race the damn car and have fun with it.

[dennis5374]

I raced one last weekend. My car was running like crap in between 6-8 cylinders. I got him by a car in the 1/4. Tha being said i also have a well built lt1. Xfi 280 cam,built 355 with 12.5-1 compression. 1.6 rr's a4 with 3000 stall and 4.10 gears. Also full boltons with ported and polished stock heads,intake and 52mm holley tb. With the car running right i would've embarrassed him badly. Also have nitto nto5 275/40/17 dr's tha hook very well. Plan on running a 2 stage Nos setup for an upcoming race against my buddies 07 twin turbo z06. Im gonna have my hands full but with the spray i think ill own him in 1/4. I beat him in the 1/8 on just motor but he comes pulling hard. The cam swap should put u out in front and its not a monster cam so hr may not notice a difference. Tell him u had a bad plug after u hand him his ass

[blackbird1084]

I'm not sure you'll beat him. A stock 07 zo6 can pull 10.8's@125-127 stock on slicks. A twin turbo version on a good tune should be able to run 10's on a mild tune and street tires. But after you run him please post up results. Srt-8's have the worst drivetrain lose out of all the pony cars. They're rated at 426 but only actualy put down 360 to the wheels and are retartedly heavy. I think the charger is 4200 the challenger is 4100 and the magnum is 4400. With that kind of weight they'd need another 50-100 hp to really get moving good. And the price is just stupid. 45k new and used srt-8 challengers are still going for 35k. You can get a used 06 zo6 with the same miles for that much.

[jallen100]

I say spray the crap out of it. There is nothing wrong with spray, and its not a cheater mod in any way. The headers will make a big difference though. Some of the fastest guys on here, record holders and LTX shootout champs are spraying their cars so that should speak for itself.

[410StrokerSS]

spray all day

[Dangerous95lt1]

Im am a teenager but a teenager with a job and I can pay for my blown motors and problems. I just was gettin ready to shift to third so around 80 mph. He had a car maybe a car an a half.

Reason I spray is because its cheaper and I drive 60 miles a day to work so I like my 22 mpg highway.

I just bought a cam and getting ready to buy headers so i'll beat him NA anyway

[turtle]

Take the turbo or sc off and it goes back to a 14 sec car as well and will run like crap n2O is not cheating just gets called that by pepole who have lost to it and need an cheap shot to make them feel beter

[410StrokerSS]

Your telling a teenager to spray all day? Have you not been around other teenagers with nitrous who will do anything to beat another kids car? They blow their shit up. Its science!!

hey live and learn..everyone does

[410StrokerSS]

Man you have something cute to say about everyones kill stories dont you? lol

lol...thats great

[BLK95-Z]

^^This may be a bit off topic but how do you have a 410ci LT1? Thats pretty awesome

EDIT: Did some research and I see now. Id love to see a pic of those pistons, I bet the pin is behind the rings.

i will see if i can find a pic ..they look like pancakes ..lol

Do the mods and you will beat him. My bosses husband has a 09 Charger R/T with cold air, exhaust, and tunes. And he beat me when I first got my 94 Formula with a 383/M6. But after my 160 stat, 52mm TB, exhaust, and ignition. And better tires. I smoked him!Exhaust helps a lot! Our stock manifolds flow like crap!!
