A guy I work with bought a Boss 302, not a LS edition thought, we lined our cars (1LE vs Boss 302) up a few times with the same results with and without the Boss track key feature. From 0-140 is nose to nose. It will be an interesting race.

I also raced a Boss 302 at Bradenton. He ran a 13.8 vs my 13.4. His trap speed was a MPH or two higher. It all depends on how well you launch. Drivers race for sure

Boss 302 is stock and my 1LE has a Halltech intake and a Bo White TB. I raced with a 220lb passenger and I'm 230. The driver of the boss is 140lbs. So without a doubt the few HP I gained by mods is negated by weight.

The Boss is bare bones with Recaro seats while my 1LE is a 2SS.

Ok that's good. I know Laguna seca edition is lighter than a reg boss so hopefully I'll see him to find out

Sounds like the slowest Boss 302 I ever heard of. Those things usually trap 113 to 115mph.

That's what I'm saying too lol
Hell I love my 5th gen and will always love it but a stock Boss is a mid 12sec car stock is way way faster then our 5th gens. My buddy's went 11.92 at 116mph with just slicks no mods what so ever!

The trap speed on the Boss at Bradenton was 107. I beat the driver, not the car. I launched MUCH better than him and cut nearly a perfect light.

Your best is a 13.08 and you beat all those? Were you dreaming?
