H/C LT1 Camaro vs H/C LS1 Camaro SS vs turbo Civic hatch
The runs were 3 lane runs with the LT1, the LS1, and the supposed 400WHP 1800lb civic hatch(I think that its more like mid to low 300s).
There was a car at the end taking vids (hopefully they will be up soon).
1st (attempted) race: DIG,
No one to flag, so I attempt to honk it off. The SS leaves BEFORE the second honkhttp://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:www.ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_eek2.gif, the civic hit it right after and chase. I did not chase.
I'm pretty sure the SS stayed out in front and the civic sould not catch him.
2nd race DIG,
Bith the civic and the SS said they could not really hear the horn over my exhaust (cut out FTL). I yelled 1 2 3. The SS and I got of pretty even with him pulling about a bumper for a moment, then I started pulling and put a solid 4-5 cars (atleast) on both. I think that the SS and the civic were pretty close and the vid will have to show the winner between them.
After the dig run, the civic wanted to do a roll. I accepted, but wanted to go back to the meet for a little while to let the clutch cool. It flared a little on the 2-3 shift and I smelled clutch/brakes well before I hit the brakeshttp://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:www.ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_cry.gif
3rd race 45 roll:
After a little cool down and B.S'n, we want back out and lined them up.
The SS and I were side by side for a split second and I pulled away pretty good. The civic was a few cars back. With only 3.42s, I normally let out at the top of third (or right as I shift into fourth), but I did not want ANY excuses to come from the civic saying that I let out as he was pulling on me. So, I wound it out pretty close to the top of fourth. The civic was a good 4 cars back. I did not see where the SS was (it definately was not in my blind spot, lol), I'm pretty sure he let off well before the civic and I.
After the races there were no excuses. We went back to the meet and had a great time.

The runs with the SS were a rematch/tie breaker from this thread:
