Ever LOSE to an LS-1 F-body?

Since its a fun topic, and a hot one, I thought this would be a fun poll....

Your identity won't be revealed and these were "all at the track".... of course!!

I think we can pretty much assume the answers are the same for LS2 GTOs too??

My Fbody losses:

1. Hit the rev limiter before the reflash. I won the rematch.
2. Fell asleep at the light(s) once. ONCE. Duh!
3. Supercharged SS kicked my butt. 12.0s @ 120mph. Ouch!

GTO losses:
1. Full tank and a passenger (at the track?) to about 50mph.


I've seen absolutely dismal showings by GTOs at the track. SO hard to launch.

I have never lost, but I think I have gotten lucky. Once my roommate and I race I will have to choose a different answer though. He has a WS6 making 440 rwhp all motor and 540 on the juice

Heres my ss story:

Driving home after work all of a sudden someone is on my tail real close I wait for him to pass but doesnt so i punch it to pull away he does the same. I pull over at a gas station and he follows I start talking to the dood. He asks me if id like to run it with him at the local track i agree we go out there. Ran it twice, 1st gear keeps up 2nd gear we are still close once I hit 3700-4200rpm i start pulling away. Next race same result. Only mods he told me he had was catback/cai/ls1 edit.

Unless you have done mods to include a programmer, or have a SRT, You can't beat a LT1,LS1,and LS2.
