Default 1 kill & 1 death with a LT1.

one of my buddies from work just bought a 94 z28 LT1, yesterday when we get off of work he starts following me and reving his motor up and then passes me and a 18 wheeler up, then I go around the 18 wheeler and he slows down thinking I wanted to race, really I didnt knowing that I was going to be left behind real bad but he stays around 50mph and I said what the hell it is just for fun, so we went from a 50mph roll and to my surprise I put a half a car on him quick and stayed in front but he was catching real slow to me by the time my truck shut off at 97mph he was right beside me and then of course he kept on going while I was shutdown....... so its kind of a kill??? then we turn onto the side of the feeder and we go again at a 20mph roll and we are head on till about 55 and he starts pulling and by the time I reach 97mph again he has about a one and a half cars in front of me....... well the moral of this story is, I need to get off my *** and get a tune and get rid of that limiter!!!

All i can say is that your buddy needs to learn how to drive or maybe a tune up.

man that is pretty impressive for an EC. i bet those 3.42 gears helped out on those rolls. nice job.

get a custom tune and i bet you could take em if you are that close now. the tune will help you alot.
