lol, i love this guy. He thinks his bullit is the fastest damn thing ont he street. You go ahead and keep racing those LS1's. Next time let the driver of the LS1 know that you are racing him. Cause it ususally comes down to a driver's race between me and LS1's. and i put more that you to the wheels

I hate it when people throw out challenges, and talk crap over the internet, but I'd love to race you. Just to see how close I came to you, so then I could get a grasp on what kind of times you 'could or will never' run at the track. No offense, I mean, I think your car is beautiful, and you've got a 'fair' start on mods, but I really so nothing in your list of mods that is going to allow you to walk away from a basically stock New Edge other than 4.10's. I mean, you're not even running around on DR's, how in the heck can you expect to beat New Edges with gears and DR's, let alone LS1's with ANY mods, or even stock.
Again dude, don't take what im saying personally, just get to the track. If you run a Bullit to its 'stock' potential of 13.6 or whatever you've posted in that one magazine test, I'd ****, AND take back everything I've said, but until then, you've got to understand why you get sooooo many doubters in all of your threads.
EDIT: i've only gone 13.9, and I can't see you getting me by more than a car from a roll, let alone a dig.

i still say that we should require proof of track experience to post in here...
i will say that ive seen a stock auto LS1 run in the high 13s...which would give this kid a chance if he happens to be running that same LS1 car...but that was a red firebird in the pittsburgh area. just because we some how have the fastest stock LSX cars in the country here doesnt mean that all of them are capable of 6 second runs out of the box...but then again even a poorly driven, automatic LS1 firebird should be faster than your appearance package GT.
And that is what MOST of us are saying. Sure, you might be able to beat a poorly driven 6sp, but there is no reason that an automatic F-Body, as consistent and well performing as they are, should fall in a ROLL race of all places to a New Edge making 'somehow' 250 to the wheels.
From a dig, perhaps properly driven, the Bullit with his mods could edge him out with a bit of spin from the auto, but other than that, no. I would be AMAZED if I ever beat, or even hung within a cars length of a LS1 from a roll as my car is now, even against an auto. But somehow since he's got a Bullit, he's killing them left and right.

I concur with MachOne. I've run low 14 second passes before, maybe two, after spinning very badly off the line (2.4 60 ft) when I first started taking it to the track. With traction (2.1 60 ft, still not great) I ran 13.5 stock. But yeah, if a well-driven Bullitt had been next to me on one of those embarrassing runs then it may have gotten me. From a rolling start, however, traction is not an issue. But those races are gay anyway and don't count so whatever.
Okay, 250 hp and 283 tq, actualy, thast more hp than i thought, but....
does this bode well, or badly for you in the race vs. a LS1?
now, in a race from a dig vs a drag radial/geared New Edge, do you see yourself winning that one?
im not trying to hassle you, sorry if i sound like i am, i'm just saying that youre car should not beat a roll LS1, and as it sits, is not substantially faster than a Geared New Edge

So you're 22 which makes you some peoples' daddy on here? I didn't know we had 5 year olds surfing the board. As for your 249 rwhp graph, congratulations. That extra 200# only needs around 20 rwhp to be accounted for. One thing to think of is maybe the guy in the Z was a jackass and was trying to shift the auto himself. That can cause shifting at the wrong points and/or holding a gear too long. Once again anything can happen on the street so I won't doubt your story. I just think it's very unlikely.

I get 2.4 and 2.3 60' and i run low 14s.....does that mean i can beat u ......oh ya i dont have a bullitt
Assuming your talking about a LS1 the reason nobody would believe you is because it shouldn't/couldn't happen.
If someone lost to your car with a LS1 Fbody they need to stop sleeping while driving. A grand total of 15-20 WHP in mods in a trumped up GT is not enough to take out a LS1 car.
My car has 250hp to the wheel (according to my dyno sheet). which comes out to what? 300 to the crank?
the Ls1 that i raced has 310 to the crank but how much of that is to the wheel?
The Ls1 also weighs a good 200 pounds more and I have 4:10's.
Sooooo ya.
250 Rear Wheel is like 280-285 Crank
Ls1's don't have 310 crank lol. More like 350 to the crank.

310 at the crank Ya know, if it's just a Z28 and not an SS then it has the LT1 so maybe you can beat them.
Haha, that is still ****ing funny.

Before I was tuned (I was making like 266RWHP base run) I had the jump on an LS1 had him most of 3rd gear but he was certainly catching up fast and if the race would have kept going he would have passed me. He started like 1 1/2 car lengths back and when I shut it down his front bumper was at my fender. At that time I had 20rwhp on you....

249...on a dynojet...and all that sheet shows is that you have, on your computer, a dyno sheet on which someone put down 249. matt hockey had one with what, like 300 at the wheels in an NA v6?
how about you get it to the track and show us all how fast it is?
22 or not, when you talk like a "kid" and act like a "kid", people are going to talk to you like youre a child.
a child with a 14 second car...
that can walk 12 second cars...
from a roll...
