Beat 6.0 Goat

Hey guys so I FINALLY got to race this guy with a 6.0 litre goat. I'm not sure about the year but he has headers,a catback,and slicks. From a dig was pretty close cause I was on street tires and spun through 3rd but pulled on him around 85 and beat him by a car. Then from a 30 roll it was sick. I mean complete domination by at least 15 to 20 cars. He said his rpm was to high?? and claimed it didn't count. But when I said we can do it again he declined. My buddy was riding with me and has the video, just waiting for the upload. For those of you don't know I have a fully forged 5.8 (5.7 bored 30 over). I put down 353 rwhp and was on street tires. Also all during WOT my wideband never went over 7.6. I know I need to get a cmr tune but I'm going to wait a little bit until I get my turbo kit put on instead of doing a cmr now and then another in like a month or so. But all in all it rocked.

Waiting for the video, he is in the 400rwhp range, and he meant...a 30 roll is a dead mans land in the goat, it is WINDING out 1st...and super low 2nd. Take a 40 roll and itll get you...hell that car should get you with a guy that can drive.

Ya ya ya shoulda coulda I still won. If he said 40 I would have went 40 but he said 30.

hey man how much are you really putting down to the rear wheels? in another thread you say you are getting 400rwhp...here you are saying 353...wtf chuck?

With a modest tune which I was running tonight where my A/F ratio is 7.4 I make 353. I didn't even have wideband when I tuned it. I am just guesstimating that with the proper tune of 12:1 A/f ratio that I would be near 400rwhp. 7.4 is leaving a lot of power out there. Maybe I'm a lil high i dunno. All I know is I dynod 353 and people with the same mods than me and even smaller cams are at 400 rwhp with a CMR tune. So it's just a guestimate.

so a lighter car with 400 hp and slicks lost to a heavier car with 350 on streets. He shouldn't have declined your offer to race again.

A car can only take you so far. You need to know how to use it. It was obviously to much power for him.

Did he have the A4 or six speed? I had an 05 with the LS2 and A4. Anything under 30 and I would just break the tires loose. The combination of the A4 and no traction really hurts those cars. The wheel wells are so narrow the max size tires or slicks you can use just don't help much.
For some reason the top end is not as strong as a 400 hp should be. The motor works much better in the Vette. Better gearing, transmission and traction.

sorry I am not buying it. I think this guy just throws numbers out of the top of his head. this isn't the first thread he's been called out in about his "RWHP numbers"
