I've seen that video, white 1SS vs auto 5.0? Beating it by 1 car is not running it over "pretty hard". At the end of that vid when the 5.0 jumps on the 2nd honk, the SS couldn't reel him in up to 115mph...once again proving...5th gen vs. 5.0 = drivers race. New 300 SRT8 traps higher than both of those cars, and equally driven I think the SRT8 would beat both of them. Challengers are not much lighter and those have dipped into bottom 12 stock, down to the tire.

the 5.0 gets the jump every time, and the ls3 quickly reels it in.

Ok. You concluded this by seeing the video on a GoPro mounted facing forward? Looked to me like the GT just fell back a car and stayed there. In the last part of the video, the GT got the jump, and the mighty LS3 couldn't reel it back in, although it did make up some ground. I guess in your world 1 car length is "ran over it pretty hard"....to most of us, not so much.

I'm not mad, we just have different opinions of what "run over hard" is. 1 car length, in my world, not a huge win. And when the GT jumped the honk the SS made up about a car. Results are not surpirising.

you're assuming 1 car. and the gt took the hit everytime, but the ss quickly reeled it in. hard. i'm shocked too, but it is what it is.

They hit it at the same time, except for at the end where the GT jumped on the 2nd honk. I'm not surprised a stock LS3 pulled a stock auto GT, and I don't think anyone should be. Especially not from a roll. It's hard to have a roll race with an auto vs. manual, since the auto has to compensate for the kick down. That's what it looks like the GT is doing.
