Lol, I better send a sympathy card to the handful of 5.0's I've come across. I had a guy run his mouth that he ran a 12.5 in his 5.0 then pulled on him by a few cars.

Is your car stock powertrain-wise and stock tires? If stock, You are one hell of a driver.... Unless the other driver just plain does not know how to drive. Stock for Stock, same driver to drive each car, the 5.0 will get better times 8 out of 10 passes.

dont get me wrong its believable that a near stock camaro can beat the 5.0 i just think its funny how he posted it all nonchalantly "hmmm yeah, we raced, i pulled a few car legths you know, no big deal.yeah."

I don't know about you guys but I actually run my car pretty often and know how to drive it. The new 5.0 is not a world beater. It's a fast car but doesn't put bus lengths on the new Camaro. I know it's hard for you guys to accept but the LS3 vs. 5.0 is a drivers race, it's been proven time and time again. This particular owner, like most of you mustang guys, ran his mouth better than he ran his car. I would pay him $100 cash if he could run a 12.5. The 5.0 was not 100% stock and neither is my car. Mine puts down 378 rwhp and has ran a 12.6 that is documented on this site. If you don't believe me then great, it never happened.

It's just hard for some to believe that YOU put those bus lengths on a 5.0 as well. You did say it was a "driver's race"...

I was there for those runs....he's not bullshitting. Car has barely any mods done to it.

The 5.0 isn't the all mighty you Ford boys make it out to be, sorry.

Can you quote my post where I said I put bus lengths on him? I can't find it.

I am not a Ford Boy, I own a GT500 and a Camaro 2SS and this is my 6th Camaro. I don't think anyone said the 5.0 is almighty, I personally am saying that IF the same driver drives the SS and the 5.0, stock for stock, the 5.0 will inch a win more times than the Camaro. But I agree, it is a driver's race in two competing drivers.
