Beat an LS-1 today with stock mk8 :)

I know how you feel, Rich. My family is all GM... my dad's always owned GM (his baby is a '68 Camaro- very fast) and when I bought my '67 Cougar he said "I thought I raised you better than that". Haha and you should have seen the look on his face when I took out an $8000 loan to build a race motor for it! I can't wait to see what he says when I start throwing the money at my Mark.

p.s. as for there being no replacement for displacement... normally I would agree. But today I trounced my dad in my 4.6 Mark when he tried racing me in his 5.9 Durango. I think I was more suprised than he was.

If you are all GM, why are you here? :thread:
 
I was/Kinda still am GM. I only got into the marks because of my parents buying one when I was still in school.


Every car I have owned prior to the marks, has been GM.

please tell me your joking about 5.0's beating LS1's. I've raced every single mustang GT, Cobra u could think of except the 04' supercharged stangs because they are very rare around here, but I would beat them like a red-headed step-child. Wasn't even close!

LS1 F body is a very quick car that lends itself to mods very well. A C-5 Corvette is even quicker. I have a ton of respect for those cars. As a matter of fact, if you were running 13.40's, you have a very slow LS1 for what's out there. But to say you could out run everything but exotic sports cars is ludicrous. My old 89 5.0 ran 12's. My 04 Cobra runs 11's. Hell, I can think of a half a dozen ricers that would absolutely embarass you with that kind of performance. Every seen a 9 second Supra...or even a low 12 second or better SRT4? Tons of 'em. Well, maybe not a lot of 9 second Supras...but a lot that run 10's.

I can't believe I even responded to that.

I have killed this thread once already. I left it open after the forum reboot, because I thought we could give it a second chance.


If we keep getting the "kill this thread" responses, i'll do it. We can still discuss this (no matter how unlikely), and have a good time doing it.
