Beat a new 5.0 at the drag strip
 

I ran 13.29 in the 1/4 in 90° weather. Mustang ran a 13.67. Always love shutting them up. Now I have some goodies under the hood gonna race the new GT-500 and see how close we are. He has a different size pulley and exhaust. It should be close race. Can't wait till October.

Congrats! :first:

Well do. I hope to be running low 12s by October.

Grats but you beat the driver not the car. Gimme that 5.0 and i'll show you ;)

Nice kill. I ran against a 2010ish 5.0 last week and wasn't so lucky. Pretty sure he was stock, he ran 13.07 against my 13.44 :facepalm:
So what goodies are you packing now?

Ouch...stock 5.0's should run mid to upper 12's

If it's a 2013 GT500 with a pulley you are going to need a LOT of mods to keep up.

Was thinking the same thing.

brb going to restart my computer, OP's video isn't loading.

Yeah this.

Um...he's running a pulley and exhaust? What exhaust? and Prob has a tune for the pulley change. You do realize the 2013-2014 GT500 will be around 700 hp to the wheels with those mods right?

:first:Congrats! priceless. :chevy:hope you have the video to hold high :thumbup:

Putting that much power down with just those two mods?:yikes:

If he changed the pulley probably has a tune on the car as well

633 with just a tune. More boost and exhaust work will be even higher.

Tune, pulley and x pipe on a stock exhaust = 700whp

Yeah, as said above, you may want to rethink that GT500, unless they are like that GT driver and well, can't drive.......

Hope the GT 500 is pulling a trailer or has a guy that never drove stick or he is going to smoke you :)

This may be a Camaro forum, but we aren't stupid. The new GT500 is ridiculously good if you like drag racing (road courses are up for debate). I want one!

:bonk::smm7::crazy: ....Did the 5.0 launch in 3rd?

a lot of bench racers in here :)

i went to the track friday and saw a couple of 5.0 running 13s and some modded ones mid 12... so idk why ppl are so surprised some are running 13.6

i raced one the other day i left him so behind low end and on top end he didn't even wanna pull next to me anymore lmao... all i have is a superchip and long tubes and I'm auto

then again that gt500 better grip wit some slicks and be a real good driver or he will get beat lol well depending what mods the camaro has

It not brand new. Either 2010-11 GT 500. He spins a lot from stop but from a roll hehas me. Yes those GT-500 ate fast I just wanna beat him. He told me he has the one with 540bhp from factory. He has a tune, performance mufflers from ford I believe. I got Lt, cai, tune and abt to cam it. I know I need a can to hang with him. I like goin n/a. So save money up for heads, vmax tb. If I don't beat him with that I will put turbos on the camaro.

That 5.0 I raced was stock like my SS at the time. We both were running street tires. Both m6 transmission. Yes it was driver error on both ends. My 60ft was 2.20 if I get it lower I should have run a 12.9 or 13.0 probably. Yes track conditions were terrible but its still a win. So I'm ready for a cam now. Shooting for low 12s.

Yes I know exactly what my competition runs stock I just find it funny that it was a bad driver. 5.0 are lighter and actually put down more power than the camaros. I just gotta cut sum weight on the SS and increase power to beat the GT-500. To bad the kid never got better than 13.5s. I gotta work on my 60ft time now.

I seriously doubt that... the GT500 carries almost 20mph MORE trap speed then a bolt-on SS does.

What that means is, even with a shitty launch, hes got more then enough top-end to run us down. I know from personal experience ;)

i raced a fully built mmr 2011 mustang last weekend. in my cam , bolton car with about 300lb of weight reduction. he got me off the line by a car or 1 1/2 . by the out i started pulling on him and by the 1000' i was bumper to bumper and ended up beating him by 1/2 or more. it was a non timed event. i accually raced him 3 diff times and beat him every time but that race he had me off the line . the other 2 were close off the line and i won by 2-3 cars.
i raced a gt500 when i was full weight and about 15 less hp but on a 75 shot and it was close . i mean close. 100 shot i pulled him slowly

Define "fully built" lol

Some of the stories popping up in this thread LMAO

Were you at Hallsville? Thought it has closed down...

:focus:

Well it had wheels and tires...it had an engine....and it had a body...it was all put together...aka built :paddle:




hahaha :popcorn:

hahah all that was missing was the driver... it was still at the light when I crossed the line what a piece of crap. :)

A lot of back seat racers in here . . the man won the race! Give him props! Michael Jordan lost a few games in his career did you guys know that? Bet those teams took the win too!

Its not so much that he beat him its the way he says he beat them. "beat a 5.0, love shutting those up" Then to go on and say that the 5.0 ran a 13.6 to his 13.2 neither of which are very good time for the car. Just the way he said it is laughable. I can understand if the 5.0 had been running his mouth and acting like he was the best driver ever, when the OP seems to be the one who is acting like a hard ass...I shut those 5.0's up, now I have bolt ons and can hang with a new gt500... IDK maybe Im just ready the way the OP meant it wrong.

People who buy the 5.0 must not know how to drive well. I raced a 2012 5.0 with my 2010 V6 LLT and left it behind me from take off. I'm full bolt ons and I know he wasn't stock.

I have the video for proof but its not forum friendly if you know what I mean.

Reason I did post that i beat 5.0 was because the guy was running his mouth and I shut him up. Neither of our times were good in 1/4 but its still a win. That and I want him to see my post on here just to rub it it. Yes Hallsville has been shut down for years to bad its a neighborhood with speed bumps now. We raced at Dallas raceway. When you run your mouth you gotta back it up. I did he didn't. I do get beat like everyone else. 6.2 vs 5.0 is driver mod no doubt. It always is really.

Why is everyone acting surprised? I've shut down two 2011 5.0s and a 2012 5.0 trac PAC CS in stock form. Y'all need to get off YouTube and actually race one... Overhyped.

2nd this!
