Default GTO's cannot launch....

and all drivers have the bad driver mod, they all cut 2.4 60ft's and can be outlaunched by anything

Default RE: GTO's cannot launch....

is it just me or did i hear two different blowers in that video...what exactly would you like us to discuss considering we have no clue what year the GTO was (unless that was yours) or mods on either vehicle...

the GTO won the race...

mods and years to both cars are in the information, the GTO is an LS2 because you aren't getting 371RWHP out of an CAI/exhaust and tune on an LS1

Yeah, I saw that and that's definately not what I usually see. That driver is good.

Default RE: GTO's cannot launch....

did not see any info anywhere...all it says is 03 cobra vs GTO...based on the info you provide, i would not doubt that the GTO would win. a 6.0 putting down 371 whp vs a 4.6 that has 390 at the flywheel is going to result in a victory for the goat unless he cant drive for $hit

still dont know what you are asking. someone who has all that money and time invested in a cough *muscle car* cough should be able to drive it

taking into account that most terminators were underrated from the factory, i would say that most are putting down 355-370whp...at that rate, this would have been a driver's race and it seems that the goat driver was obviously the better driver.

smaller pulley, CAI/tune and i am saying that the outcome would have been much different

still a good race though to say the least

i just watched like 30 videos of GTO launches of various GTO's(mods drivers ect ect.) and they all seem to have a sluggish 60ft IMO

I suggest you open your eyes then, and stop bench racing.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNxDs_b7bMw^^^

GTO = Intake / Exhaust, 371 RWHP. Street tires.

03 Cobra = Intake / Exhaust. 404 rwhp+. Street tires
also... if a CAI and exhaust is "all that time and money" I suggest you find another hobby as well

they can launch just like any other car with a good driver.... just flogging the myths that they can't

Default RE: GTO's cannot launch....

ok so a highly modified GTOcan launch. butvs stock GTO or fairly stock...you were right the firs time, they cant launch and the drivers cant drive them either. you would you think with 30 launch videos and 30 drivers of a stock GTO you'd find someone that can cut a decent time....nope...

Default RE: GTO'

Stock cobra vs Stock ls2 GTO is a win for the 03/04 Cobra.

The Cobra had a bad launch.

That or the mods are not true.
