Default Driver makes a HUGE difference

Save as

Found on SVTPerformance.com

Saleen - 331 stroker, twisted wedge heads, gt 40 intake, tb, stteda no 19 cam, and pretty much every bolt on you can buy. (Coming from the owner himself)

Z28 - Cam and full exhaust (Coming from the owner himself)

Just goes to show you, the Z28 guy can't shift for ****.

I don't think the Saleen guy knew the 3 honk rule. But he smoked that Z off the line and the Z guy just acted like he ****ed up his shift. Off the line is where it's at in my book. Of coarse I never owned a turbo car.

No, notice how the Z OWNED his ass from a roll but had to play catch up from the hole. Even the owner himself said he has the ****ty stock shifter and really didn't launch too well.

Well i think 95LT1 was getting at is the granny shifting. From a roll that Z was kicking butt. Good race overall.
